Mark S. Segal
Forty-one years at the bar. His published practice-area list runs to twenty-four entries — from ferry accidents and sports law to birth injury and police brutality. The firm's rideshare page is the most heavily sourced in this batch, citing the statute by section and naming the research it relies on.
The bar record
We read Mark S. Segal 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. Mark S. Segal was admitted through the 2nd 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 biography lists twenty-four practice areas, including ferry accidents, subway accidents, sports law and summer accidents alongside personal injury. New York’s register publishes no practice-area field at all, so none of that is bar-checked.Verified
The firm’s rideshare page cites CPLR §214(5) for the three-year limitation period and Insurance Law §5102(d) for the serious-injury threshold, and states the deadline for a no-fault claim as thirty days. Of the twenty pages in this batch, it is among the few that name the sections rather than paraphrasing them.Verified
It also attributes a claimed increase in traffic fatalities to research from the University of Chicago and Rice University. We have not read that research and do not restate the figure.Verified
