Others who list this employer on the register
The register gives this attorney’s employer as “Brooks Kushman P.C.”. We count that spelling with Brooks Kushman PC, the name most registrants give for the firm now; the register does not say where the attorney works today.
3 other attorneys list Brooks Kushman PC or one of its other names as their employer on the register; 1 of them was admitted before 1999, and 3 of the 4 give an office in Royal Oak, MI. The 3 whose admission is closest to 1999, earliest first:

How to confirm it officially
For a statement of Erica Dawn Klein’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 Erica Dawn Klein in 1999. 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).
