Anil Taneja, Attorney-at-Law, M.B.A.

Legal matters in Midtown don’t always require a sprawling firm. Sometimes a single practitioner with an extra credential—like an M.B.A.—can cut through the noise, especially when the office sits steps from the Empire State Building. Anil Taneja, Attorney-at-Law, M.B.A. operates from 244 5th Ave Second Floor, a building that’s seen its share of briefcases and deadlines since the 1920s. The address places him within walking distance of courthouses, corporate towers, and a dozen subway lines, so clients can arrive by train or on foot without the usual parking hassles Fifth Avenue is famous for. They offer onsite services and a restroom, which means you won’t be hunting for facilities mid-meeting. When you’re ready to schedule, dial (212) 726-3000 and ask for an appointment; the number connects directly to the office. For directions, pull up the map and let GPS handle the rest—just watch for the awning between 28th and 29th. A second-floor walk-up keeps overhead low, and the savings might just show up in the retainer.
