Dedication to—and excellence in—public service are enduring values that have sustained the O?ce of the Corporation
Counsel from its early roots, 400 years ago, through the present day. In recent years, the o?ce has expanded these
tenets into a mission: to be the ?nest public law o?ce, providing the highest-quality representation for the City of
New York. Each day, we strive to achieve this mission with a supportive work environment that fosters diversity,
integrity, professionalism, and teamwork. We rise to the challenges presented by today’s complex, ever-changing legal
arena—and we continually evolve our craft as we work toward the City of tomorrow.
