Location
Winston & Strawn’s New York office opened in 1989 and has since grown to become the firm’s second-largest location, housing 200+ attorneys distributed across 24 practice areas. Based in the iconic MetLife Building above Grand Central Station in Midtown Manhattan, our New York lawyers represent 80+ Fortune 500 companies from the city’s business epicenter. Our New York attorneys are tenacious and insightful, and they reflect the diversity for which New York City is known—52% of the office’s attorneys identify as women, racial/ethnic minorities, and/or LGBTQ+, and several of them chair Winston affinity groups. Our New York office’s welcoming and collaborative atmosphere can be seen through numerous office-wide events, including volunteer opportunities, gatherings to connect over food and drinks, wellness event pop-ups, and annual entry in the NYC Lawyers Basketball League. Creating a connected and supportive setting for attorneys and staff fosters camaraderie and encourages all of us to work harder for one another and our clients.
