Saba Ashraf is delinquent on the New York attorney register file of Sep 29, 2026. Admitted in 1995 in the Second Department, with an office in Philadelphia, PA; next registration due May 2027. The status is the same in all 3 files we hold. The month shown is the next cycle’s; the delinquency concerns an earlier registration the register did not receive.

What this status means on the register

On the register, “Delinquent” means the attorney has a registration the register shows as due and not received. Under the rule a failure to register results in referral to the Appellate Division for disciplinary action; the register does not show whether a given attorney was referred.

Others who list this employer on the register

The register gives this attorney’s employer as “Troutman Pepper Hamilton Sanders LLP”. We count that spelling with Troutman Pepper Locke LLP, 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 Saba Ashraf’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 Saba Ashraf in 1995. 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).
