What this profile tells you

Bar status & tenure

The attorney was admitted to the bar in 2007, representing roughly 19 years since admission — a useful signal when weighing depth of practical experience against fee expectations. Registration is recorded within Judicial Department 1, the appellate division overseeing this attorney's home district.

Practice context & education

Practice address is listed under Klein Law LLC, located in Chicago, IL, ZIP 60642. Educational background: Fordham University School of Law — which has 22,919 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.
