Others who list this employer on the register

The register gives this attorney’s employer as “Shearman & Sterling LLP”. We count that spelling with A&O Shearman, the name most registrants give for the firm now; the register does not say where the attorney works today.

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).
