The outgoing general counsel of an international shipping conglomerate is launching a six-attorney New York firm, enlisting the help of a New York University professor and four women seeking to re-enter the law or expand their legal practices after working part-time.

James Philbin, who was general counsel of Maersk Inc., the North American subsidiary of Danish conglomerate A.P. Moller-Maersk A/S, launched The Philbin Law Firm this month. The firm will offer services in litigation, regulatory and investigations, as well as employment and labor law, corporate and workplace investigations, intellectual property, finance and real estate.
