Our Firm Culture
Social Responsibility
Rosenberg & Estis maintains an ongoing commitment to charitable work through programs that give back to the youth in New York. As an advocate for the YMCA of Greater New York, R&E annually hosts teen interns through YMCA’s Teen Career Connection Summer Internship Program, which provides teens from low-income communities with the opportunity to work in professional environments and gain access to career training. We also welcome high-need students as interns through the PENCIL Fellows Program.
R&E supports additional programs that directly supply thousands of children living in New York City homeless and domestic violence shelters with school supplies and holiday toys, including Operation Backpack, sponsored by Volunteers of America Greater New York, and Winter Wishes, sponsored by New York Cares.
Advancing Diversity & Inclusion
Individuality is both highly valued and highly celebrated at Rosenberg & Estis. We are an equal opportunity employer with an ongoing commitment to cultivating a diverse work environment, offering opportunities to all qualified persons regardless of race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, marital status, veteran status, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, or status in any group protected by federal, state or local law. R&E’s senior legal management includes gender, ethnic and LGBTQ diversity, and women, persons of color (POC) and members of the LGBTQ community are represented in management of a number of critical areas of Firm services.

A Greener New York
R&E was recognized by the New York City Bar’s Environmental Law Committee for our efforts in reducing our environmental footprint. The Firm’s recent participation in New York State Energy Research & Development Authority (NYSERDA)’s Commercial Tenant Program is a testament to our commitment to reducing energy consumption, making the business case for energy efficient workspaces and setting the example for other law firms to follow.
The Terrace Experience
Whether it’s an afternoon lunch or a coffee to start the workday, we love any reason to spend time on our 12th-floor terrace. When weather permits, R&E attorneys gather bimonthly for appetizers and drinks during a time we call “Thursdays on Third.” The terrace is also where both attorneys and staff enjoy Summer Morning Yoga classes, along with annual Shake Shack Lunches, Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Parties and celebratory dinners following our yearly Corporate Challenge 5k in Central Park.
