PlainAttorney is an independent publication owned by Kiznis Studio, a small data studio in the European Union. It republishes the New York court system’s public attorney register (433,923 registrations on the file of Sep 29, 2026), explains what each status means under the rules, and shows what changed between files. It is not the court system and has no relationship with any attorney or firm listed.

What we publish, and what we leave to the court system

It is a reading aid for a public record: each attorney’s status in plain words, the rule behind it, the history across the register files we hold, and counts that put a record in context. The figures come from the register itself and from named public files, and every page says which file and which date.

It is not a lawyer directory, a rating or a referral service, and it is not legal advice. It cannot certify anyone’s standing: the court system’s Attorney Registration Unit and the Appellate Division do that.

Who answers for it

PlainAttorney is owned by Kiznis Studio, a one-person studio in Lithuania that builds public-data sites with AI tools; each keeps its own data, its own pages and its own address. Here the AI tools write the code, the page templates and the guides’ prose; the figures come from database queries over the court system’s files, and the pipeline checks them against each file’s own totals.

The data editor is that person, not a program: they answer for what the site publishes and read and answer every correction request. Each quote in the guides is taken by an exact pattern from a saved copy of the rule, so the extraction stops if the saved wording differs from what the page quotes; the saved copies are re-read against the published rules at each scheduled review. No lawyer reviews the site. The guides quote the rules and link the court system’s own pages; for advice about a legal matter, ask a lawyer.

Advertising pays for the site. Advertisers have no say in what is published, and no attorney or firm can pay to change, add or remove a record.

Your record and your rights

If you are an attorney listed here, your page shows what the register shows. If something is wrong, tell us and we check it against the court system’s file; if the file itself is wrong, the correction has to be made with the court system, and your page follows at the next file. You can also object to your page being published: the privacy page explains your rights and what happens next.
