<div><div><div>About the Agency:<br>
<br>
The New York City Department of Housing Preservation Development (HPD) promotes quality and affordability in the city's housing, and diversity and strength in the city&rsquo;s neighborhoods because every New Yorker deserves a safe, affordable place to live in a neighborhood they love.<br>
<br>
<ul><li>We maintain building and resident safety and health</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>We create opportunities for New Yorkers through housing affordability</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>We engage New Yorkers to build and sustain neighborhood strength and diversity.</li></ul><br>
HPD is entrusted with fulfilling these objectives through the goals and strategies of &ldquo;Housing Our Neighbors: A Blueprint for Housing and Homelessness,&rdquo; Mayor Adams&rsquo; comprehensive housing framework. To support this important work, the administration has committed $5 billion in new capital funding, bringing the 10-year planned investment in housing to $22 billion the largest in the city&rsquo;s history. This investment, coupled with a commitment to reduce administrative and regulatory barriers, is a multi-pronged strategy to tackle New York City&rsquo;s complex housing crisis, by addressing homelessness and housing instability, promoting economic stability and mobility, increasing homeownership opportunities, improving health and safety, and increasing opportunities for equitable growth.<br>

Cases focus on violations of statutory requirements, including, but not limited to, rent registration and affordability requirements, as well as violations of Regulatory Agreements. These investigations regularly involve coordination with other city and state agencies; you may assist the AC in liaising with these agencies. Additionally, the attorney will investigate allegations that are referred from both internal and external sources.

<ul><li>Investigate complaints by collecting facts from public sources, property owners, and residents</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>Make legal recommendations as to extent of violations and appropriate remedies</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>Prepare appropriate legal documents to prosecute violations or revoke benefits</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>Resolve cases through negotiated settlement, administrative proceedings or, with other agencies, court proceedings, including a small number of appearances before OATH</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>Serve as the primary point of contact for owners, owners' counsel and residents of properties that are the subject of assigned cases</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>Regularly report status of cases to the Assistant Commission and other senior staff members</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>Work with Division support staff to update and maintain tracking and case management systems</li></ul><br>

<ul><li>Supervise Paralegals and/or Assistant Project Managers</li></ul><br>
<ul><li>Assist the Assistant Commissioner in producing an annual report with a list of buildings for which benefits have been revoked</li></ul><br>
Preferred Skills:<br>

Assistant Counsel, Discipline

Latham & Watkins LLP

<div><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>About Latham &amp; Watkins
</b></h2><div><div><div>Latham &amp; Watkins is one of the world&rsquo;s leading global law firms advising the businesses and institutions that drive the global economy. We are the market leaders in major financial and business centers globally and offer unmatched expertise and resources to help you grow from an intellectually curious self-starter into an exceptional lawyer. If you aspire to be the best, this is where you belong.
</div></div></div><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>About the Practice Group
</b></h2><div><div><div>Latham&rsquo;s White Collar Defense &amp; Investigations Practice has earned a global reputation for consistently handling the most complex, highest-stakes investigations, trials, and enforcement matters.<br>
<br>
With a formidable roster of experienced defense lawyers, many of whom were senior prosecutors or government officials, we regularly navigate and resolve high-profile investigations on behalf of a wide range of corporations, financial institutions, boards of directors, and individuals. With a presence in all the major regulatory, financial, and commercial centers around the globe, we mobilize to address highly sensitive, complex regulatory issues that pose significant operational and reputational risks to clients. We navigate every crisis by integrating with our clients&rsquo; internal teams, and working to set a strategy that balances the relevant legal, operational, and reputational considerations.<br>
<br>
From winning headline-making trials, to investigating and defending against allegations related to financial fraud, market manipulation, bribery, corruption, cryptocurrency, sanctions, healthcare and other matters, to helping companies proactively prevent misconduct &mdash; we bring unsurpassed experience to such engagements.<br>
<br>
Judgment &mdash; informed by deep experience &mdash; often makes the difference early in a crisis, when seemingly minor decisions can cause unforeseen consequences. From a federal agent knocking at the door to surprise subpoenas to reputation defining allegations, we have successfully counseled myriad clients through a range of crises. Our first-hand experience conducting investigations and responding to government inquires around the world allows us to see around corners and help clients avoid pitfalls.<br>
<br>
Our global team features more than two dozen lawyers with significant prior government experience. Members include former high-ranking US government lawyers from both sides of the aisle who understand the inner workings of the government and regularly deliver results that dramatically reduce our clients&rsquo; legal, financial, and reputational exposure. Our lawyers&rsquo; longstanding relationships with regulators and prosecutors enable us to advocate effectively on behalf of clients. We resolve most matters discretely and on favorable terms, but always bring a trial-ready mindset backed by an outstanding trial record in the most difficult cases.<br>
<br>
Companies and their boards regularly retain Latham to conduct internal investigations related to allegations of financial irregularities, whistleblowers, market misconduct, and bribery or corruption. We set clear goals, help clients determine potential exposure, and devise strategies to assess the need for disclosure to authorities, minimize collateral damage and restore confidence and trust among key constituents. The team regularly interacts with government enforcement agencies, regulators, external auditors, and congressional committees and can comprehensively address a client&rsquo;s challenges.<br>
