How to verify a New York attorney
- Search the attorney by name or bar number in the search box above — it pulls the official NYS Office of Court Administration (OCA) Attorney Registration Unit record.
- Confirm the license status reads "active" (not suspended, disbarred, inactive, or not eligible).
- Check the disciplinary standing — disbarred or suspended is a public record you can see before you hire.
- Cross-check the bar number and admission year against anything the attorney told you.
