Jeremy Goldstein Among Legal 500, Most Sought-After Attorneys
As a top-rated New York City lawyer, Jeremy Goldstein has focused much of his practice on the corporate world. His extensive work with everything from CEO compensation to mergers & acquisitions has imbued him with unique insights into how corporate America is evolving.
In a recent interview, Goldstein provides a key insight. He said that corporate structures are changing into “worker cooperatives.” However, this emerging internal structure within big business brings forth considerable legal issues and challenges. Goldstein said that whenever traditional business modes are altered, a legal component is always part of the mixture. New ways are required to resolve ancillary issues that inevitably crop up.
Jeremy Goldstein established Jeremy L. Goldstein & Associates in 2014. Since then, he has worked with some of the biggest names in business. Clients include the likes of Sears, K-Mart, AT&T and J.P. Morgan Chase and Company. He earned his Juris Doctor in 1999 at New York University School of Law.
Goldstein breaks the mold in the realm of legal practitioners in key ways. For example, he calls his approach to law “personal.” That is perhaps the last quality most people associate with lawyers. Let’s face it, this is not exactly a profession noted for “warm and fuzzy.” But Goldstein is talking about some more nuanced and subtle. He views his relationship with his clients as more than “all business.” He encourages a more personal connection that includes socializing and getting together to kick back outside the office.
The result, he said, is greater innovation of ideas. Goldstein said that a lawyer who treats his clients like “real people” can engage on a deeper level. The dangers of blending client relationships with personal relationships doesn’t bother Jeremy Goldstein because it can be done in ways where all demarkations are understood.
Involvement in professional development associations is also part of being a great attorney, Goldstein said. For example, Goldstein was recently named chairperson of the Merger & Acquisitions subcommittee that is part of the American Bar Association’s business realm. The Chambers USA Guide and Legal 500 reports that Goldstein is among the prestigious “Legal 500.” That means he is one of the most sought-after legal services providers for cases of corporate compensation in the U.S.
Jeremy Goldstein also supports good causes, such as the Fountain House in New York City, a group that helps people cope with mental illness issues and live better lives.
