Norman Gershon
Registered in North Salem, at the northern edge of Westchester. The register holds him as “N. Robert Gershon PC” at a PO box with a Gmail address, while the practice trades as the Law Offices of Norman Gershon. His article is the only one in this batch to explain the 2024 Court of Appeals arbitration ruling that can close the courthouse door on a passenger.
The bar record
We read Norman Gershon 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. Norman Gershon 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
The register records the business name as N. Robert Gershon PC, the address as a June Road PO box in North Salem, and the email as a Gmail account. The site trades as the Law Offices of Norman Gershon and gives offices in North Salem and White Plains. All of that is consistent; none of it matches on its face, and a reader checking the register against the website would need to know that.Verified

Uber Technologies, the November 2024 Court of Appeals decision holding that a passenger who tapped “Confirm” on an updated terms-of-service pop-up was bound to arbitrate a lawsuit she had already filed. It is a real and consequential point that the other nineteen pages do not raise.Verified
