Astoundingly incompetent and unprofessional. Negative 5 stars.

This site offers minimal space so I cannot fully elaborate on this attorneys astounding unprofessionalism. He is surly, lazy, deceptive and cowardly. During our professional relationship he refused to take my calls. My case was dismissed because of his incompetence. Please note his past BBO record. T...ruly despicable.

Untrustworthy

After review of my own case and receiving my file I found that Mr. Manoff failed in many areas of my case to resolve properly. Mr. Manoff failed to communicate with me in a professional level. Mr. Manoff at conclusion of settlement admitted his intent was to never get my case to trial, which was com...pletely against my wishes. Please review Mr. Manoff"s Public Reprimand by The Commonwealth of Massachusetts had I known this case was pending I would have fired him immediately. Do not Hire this Attorney

If you want to win your case, then hire Paul Manoff!

I've retained Attorney Paul Manoff for a sexual harassment/discrimination case many years ago in a work-related matter. The employer retained/used various attorneys in an attempt to win this case. Attorney Paul Manoff was very dependable, professional, direct, supportive and kept me well informed o...n all the aspects of the case. Paul is a direct and no-nonsense type of an attorney. Paul gets right to the facts and does what it takes to win a case. I was very proud of Paul for having stood up to these many pitbull type of attorneys. Paul showed them who had the bigger bark/bite and won the case. He's very knowledgeable!! I've since referred clients to Paul and I knew, the clients would be in good hands. So, if you're serious about winning your case, then don't hesitate, to call and retain Attorney Paul Manoff. You won't have any regrets!!
