In moments of profound uncertainty, New York City has turned to its lawyers not just for counsel, but for leadership. Working alongside elected officials and agency partners, the dedicated public servants of the NYC Law Department have helped balance legal obligations with the realities of emergency response and recovery, made rapid yet principled decisions, shaped policy under pressure, and gained insights into how to confront future events. At this symposium, hear directly from Corporation Counsels and senior legal leaders whose judgment and experience have made New York a global model for legal leadership in times of crisis.
