About BS&K

    Bond, Schoeneck & King, PLLC was founded in 1897 and since then the firm has developed a reputation for professional excellence, integrity, and success that lives on more than a century later. These hallmarks of the firm have played an important role in attracting quality clients and legal work; have allowed us to participate in the evolution and growth of the communities we serve; and have been the basis not only for the noteworthy cases we have won, but for our acknowledged leadership in the marketplace, the breadth of our practice and the talent we offer. As a result, we have grown to a law firm of 200 lawyers with offices in New York, Florida and Kansas. Our lawyers have extensive expertise in 18 different practice areas and 10 different industry groups.

    Our high quality work product is also recognized as a great value. We offer "big city" expertise at business-friendly rates, an attraction for a surprisingly varied clientele. We represent clients from across the nation in our employee benefits, labor, and NCAA practices. Our business, higher education, intellectual property, and litigation clients come to us from across the Northeast, while our other practice areas are leaders throughout their regional presences in New York and Florida.
