How do I check that a civil rights lawyer in New York is licensed?

Start with the official attorney lookup linked on this page. Match the lawyer’s full name and bar number, and read the current status and any restrictions. Ask the lawyer to confirm authorization for your matter; a directory listing does not establish eligibility.
