Others who list this employer on the register

The register gives this attorney’s employer as “Gustafson Gluek PLLC”. We count that spelling with Gustafson Gluek, P.L.L.C., the name most registrants give for the firm now; the register does not say where the attorney works today.

How to confirm it officially

For a statement of Dennis James Stewart’s standing, contact the Attorney Registration Unit of the NY Office of Court Administration (nycourts.gov/attorneys), or ask the Appellate Division, Second Department, which admitted Dennis James Stewart in 1983. The register places the office outside New York, so a complaint would go to that department’s grievance committee (22 NYCRR 1240.7(a)(2)).

This page reads the register file of Sep 29, 2026, and the court system’s own search can be newer; the register shows only the current value, so a suspension that ended before the files we hold, or a censure, leaves no trace here (Appellate Division decisions are published through the court system’s Law Reporting Bureau).
