Daniel Flanzig
Bicycle law is his actual specialism, and it is documented rather than asserted — he founded and chairs the New York State Trial Lawyers Association's bicycle litigation sub-committee, sits on his village traffic and safety committee, and has lectured on e-bike and micro-mobility law to a police department. His Manhattan office is by appointment; the register holds him in Mineola.
The bar record
We read Daniel Flanzig in the New York State Unified Court System’s Attorney Detail Report. Only the shaded green row is generated by the court; the rows marked attorney-supplied were filed by him.
New York vouches for one line of this. The court system’s own disclaimer states that the Detail Report contains information provided by the attorney, except registration status, which is generated from the Office of Court Administration’s database. It further states that an attorney’s good standing and any information regarding disciplinary actions must be confirmed with the appropriate Appellate Division Department. So “currently registered” is the court’s own fact. “No record of discipline” is displayed by the court system but comes with an instruction to verify it elsewhere — and we haven’t. That is why the discipline figure above is a dash and not a tick.
And it tells you which office to ask. Daniel Flanzig was admitted through the 1st Department, so that is the department a reader would need to write to. Of the twenty-one lawyers on our New York pages, fifteen were admitted through the Second and six through the First. No other register we use sends you somewhere else to finish the check — and none of the others tells you where.
What the record shows
His published record in one area is unusually concrete for this site: founder and chair of the NYSTLA bicycle litigation sub-committee, president of the board of the New York Bicycling Coalition, chair of his village’s traffic and safety committee, and an advisor to the Nassau County Traffic Safety Board. Most claims we read are awards; these are named posts with named organisations.Verified
He says he was invited by the Lynbrook Village Police Department in January 2023 to train patrol officers on e-bikes, e-scooters and micro-mobility devices. Whatever else that is, it is not standard law-firm marketing copy.Verified
