What this profile tells you
Bar status & tenure
Eric Chow is registered as bar number 4673794 with the New York bar authority, carrying a current status of "Suspended, delinquent", a classification that limits or suspends the attorney's authorization to practice — verify the exact implications with the bar before engaging this attorney. The attorney was admitted to the bar in 2009, representing roughly 17 years since admission — a useful signal when weighing depth of practical experience against fee expectations. Registration is recorded within Judicial Department 3, the appellate division overseeing this attorney's home district.
Practice context & education
Practice address is listed under Cooley LLP, located in Palo Alto, CA, ZIP 94304. Public records list 5 other attorneys with the same firm affiliation in this registry — firm size and colleague credentials are relevant when judging the scope and specialty mix of a practice. Educational background: UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG — which has 88 registered alumni in this dataset, one of the admissions credentials used by the bar to verify qualification for licensure.
State context & due diligence
For benchmarking context, New York has 429,620 registered attorneys statewide, of which 284,296 (66.2%) are actively registered — this attorney's "Suspended, delinquent" status places them outside the active cohort. Bar registration status alone does not confirm competence, specialty, or fit for a specific legal matter — it confirms only that the attorney has met the bar's registration requirements as of the last reporting cycle. Before engaging any attorney, verify their current standing directly with the state bar, review any discipline history through official channels, confirm fee structure in writing, and ask about specific experience handling matters similar to yours. Public profiles like this one are a starting point for due diligence, not a substitute for it.
