Christopher M. Manganello

I have used Chris in the past where he was excellent, very helpful, and at that time I would have recommended him. I am not sure what happened between then and now but now he is nothing but a thief. He accepted payment for a retainer for a personal issue I was having only to do no work on the case ...and have no communication with me. I have since discovered he is now suspended and unable to practice, will not return my retainer or my file making it very difficult to obtain new representation.

This attorney is dishonest and will take your money and run. I hired him for a redlining case with a contract that he did not honor. He scheduled about 10 meetings and cancelled them all at the last minute. After a year, he called asking for an additional $350 to file the case in court - we paid t...he fee. We then found out that a case was never filed. We took the matter to the Office of Attorney Ethics, and he didn't even bother to show up. He has been ordered to refund but he has been filing appeals to stretch out the process. Very dishonest
