Others who list this employer on the register

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

162 other attorneys list Polsinelli PC or one of its other names as their employer on the register; 1 of them was admitted before 1981. The 5 whose admission is closest to 1981, earliest first:

How to confirm it officially

For a statement of Michael L. Oliverio’s standing, contact the Attorney Registration Unit of the NY Office of Court Administration (nycourts.gov/attorneys), or ask the Appellate Division, First Department, which admitted Michael L. Oliverio in 1981. 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).
