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 Certified 2026
Scored 68 out of 100 on measured evidence, above the 70 this tier requires, with every eligibility gate its state allows us to check cleared.
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.
