Maureen Comey was abruptly fired by new Justice Department leaders last year.
She never got a reason and later sued, suggesting it may have been because President Trump dislikes her father, former FBI Director Jim Comey.
The younger Comey oversaw some of the biggest cases in the U.S.
Attorney's Office in Manhattan, including the bribery trial of former New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez.
She served as lead counsel in the prosecution of Jeffrey Epstein's girlfriend, who was convicted of conspiring with him to sexually abuse underage girls.
Now Maureen Comey is joining the Patterson-Belnap firm as a partner, where she'll work on high-stakes white-collar cases and complex litigation.

The president's asking for more than $10 billion because of damage he says he suffered after his tax returns became public in an FBI search for classified papers at Mar-a-Lago.
But legal demands are putting his appointees at the Justice Department on the spot.
Both the attorney general and the deputy AG once served as Trump's personal lawyers.
A spokesperson there says officials follow the guidance of career ethics lawyers.
Most legal claims like these against the government involve crashes of postal trucks or medical malpractice in federal hospitals for veterans.
President Trump's demands for money are many times greater than in those run-of-the-mill cases.
He says he'll give any money he recovers to charity.

Jack Smith presided over two criminal indictments of Trump for attempting to overturn the 2020 election and for hiding secret documents at his Florida resort.
Neither case got to a jury before Trump returned to the White House last year.
Smith says he had proof beyond a reasonable doubt in both cases and that he was not motivated by politics.
He says if he had any regrets, it was not expressing enough support for the prosecutors and FBI agents who worked on the cases.
Many of those public servants have been fired by the Trump administration.
