Re: Best cities for M&A/Capital Markets
You don't need "regional ties" in order to get a job in NYC. Regional ties are one way of demonstrating legitimate long-term interest in an area. NYC being America's biggest city and the mecca of BigLaw/M&A, there's no real reason to ask why you want to be there.

Re: Best cities for M&A/Capital Markets
Firms in most secondary markets have general corporate practices, too, ya know.
You'll probably need to divorce yourself from the notion of being an M&A or cap marks specialist if you're not going to practice in NYC. However, note that NYC is basically the easiest market in the country, so there's a good chance that if you get BigLaw anywhere it will be in NYC.
