About Stephen Bilkis & Associates

Stephen Bilkis & Associates works from five offices in the New York area, including Manhattan, Brooklyn, Kew Gardens, Baldwin and Bay Shore.

Rather than describing a single fee model, the firm states that it takes some cases with no upfront fee, which is how its fee arrangement is recorded here. It publishes a consultation at no charge and a 24-hour intake line.

What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it

LFL Verified 2026

Every eligibility gate this firm's state allows us to check has been checked and held: licensure, discipline, entity, website and footprint. Certification additionally requires a score of 70.

No public discipline

None of the 1 named attorneys carries a disciplinary status on the public register: no disbarment, suspension or disciplinary resignation. Those statuses persist, so the check reaches back years, but it would not show a censure or a suspension since lifted.
