The top City Hall attorney to New York City Mayor Eric Adams resigned late Saturday, as the mayor and his administration are facing growing scandals and a flurry of federal investigations.

Adams’ staff announced the departure of Lisa Zornberg without any explanation. She had advised Adams and other city officials on legal strategy for over a year, but did not serve as his personal lawyer.
