License & bar number lookup
New York Attorney License Lookup
Search 372,587 attorneys registered with the NYS Office of Court Administration (OCA) Attorney Registration Unit by name or bar number. Every record shows the official license status and as-of date.
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.
