Finn Mayock graduated Brooklyn College, magna cum laude, in 2020 and graduated Brooklyn Law School, cum laude, in 2023 as a Richardson Scholar and Sylvia L. Goldstein Endowed Scholar, where he served as the Executive Notes & Comments Editor of the Journal of Law and Policy. He is admitted to practice in New York State, and the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York.

Finn began working in criminal defense in college as an investigative intern for Brooklyn Defender Services. In law school, he worked at the Missouri State Public Defender in both children’s defense and capital trial defense for death penalty eligible cases; at the Legal Aid Society in the general criminal trial division; and as an intern at the Law Offices of James Henning & Associates. Finn also intermittently serves as a Step III Review Officer at the New York City Office of Labor Relations, where he renders determinations concerning labor disputes between New York City employees subject to collective bargaining agreements and their respective agencies. After law school, Finn worked as a financial services litigation associate at a large New York firm, where he worked on general commercial litigation, intercreditor lending disputes, and issues pertaining to breaches of legal and fiduciary duties. He then rejoined the Law Offices of James Henning & Associates to resume his wrongful conviction and civil rights practice.

At the firm, Finn has been engaged with intensive litigation regarding all aspects of the firm's practice. Finn was second-chair co-counsel alongside partner James Henning during the year-long hearing which resulted in an exoneration for a 1979 homicide. Finn was also the lead attorney of record on a police misconduct case involving a minor-plaintiff before the Eastern District of New York, which resulted in a significant six figure recovery against the City. 

Finn has lived in Brooklyn for the last 12 years and is an avid Manchester United supporter.
