For successful corporate attorneys in top U.S. cities, the differences in work patterns between corporate departments and law firms have almost ceased to exist, though earning patterns continue to vary. Those who have embraced the change are able to shift between corporate and law firm jobs easily, thus broadening the scopes of their careers. For such candidates seeking in-house corporate attorney jobs, New York City offers limitless growth with its thousands of law firms and big companies – and a look at this page on LawCrossing will prove it to you beyond doubt.

New York City is the top career destination for any corporate attorney as the city is a global economic center. There are few other cities in the world, except London and Tokyo, which can compare with New York in economic activity. The metropolitan area has more than a thousand corporate law departments that offer openings for in-house attorneys, though the biggest employers are from finance, media, insurance and real estate.

Major businesses that employ hundreds of in-house corporate attorneys in New York City include the Time Warner group, AIG, SunAmerica, and their subsidiaries. Other major employers include DBG Legal Services, A.I. Credit Corp., Royal Alliance Associates and Transatlantic holdings.

Notable organizations which may not hire in hundreds but do regularly hire and employ in-house counsel include Goldman Sachs, Colgate-Palmolive, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Deloitte LLP, The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and banks, finance, investment, and insurance companies like the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, McGraw Hill Financial, Marsh & McLennan and others.

For corporate counsels who, by developing their own skills, have blurred the lines between in-house and law firm work, New York City has greater opportunities with more than 8000 law firms waiting around the corner. There are few international law firms, which do not have offices in the city.

The city is home to major law firms specializing in corporate law including Greenberg Traurig, Roberts & Holland, Wilson Elser, Sullivan & Cromwell, Cadwalader, Philips Nizer and others. Big names specializing in corporate law, but with their main offices not in New York, include Jones Day, Loeb & Loeb, Mintz Levin, Edwards Wildman, Leech Tishman and Mayer Brown.
