Brian Vincent Manchester

Mr. Manchester represented me for four charges in a very strict and difficult county with a horrible jail in southern PA. I was facing jail time and I have a long list of prior offenses. To say the least I was extremely nervous about the outcome and having to spend time in jail, loose my employment, and all the other life changing items that could happen. Mr. Manchester was respectful, corteous, and professional in every interaction. His prices were more than fare and always responded to calls, emails, and text messages immediately and with the information I was trying to obtain. He stood up for me in court and was aggressive when needed yet all the while was friendly and honorable and respected by the court. He was able to work it out so I had no jail time and just six months of PA probation. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome or lawyer. Thank you Brain

I hired Brian and he represented me on a DUI case. He knew every step and guided me with much professionalism. He is knowledgeable and compassionate. I would recommend him anytime, always.

August 1, 2018 Shortly after 8:00 am today, I called the number for the office of attorney Brian Manchester. Expecting an assistant to gather my information, I was greeted by the voice of Mr. Manchester answering his phone personally on his way into court. He listened to me with politeness and great earnest, then patiently gave advice and explained my options for the future of my case, if ever needed. This greatly reduced my self- made stress of a very foolish decision made. Even before reading his online reviews of the extensive collection of positive feedback, my gut instinct told me I should call! Because of it I will finally be able to sleep better tonight. No charges have been made and hopefully will go no further. This is an extremely valuable life lesson for this older man that I am. With my sincerest appreciation, Rex

I consulted with Brian Manchester prior to being a character witness during the recent sentencing of my friend. As a result of Brian's STUNNING recommendation for me to use specific words, that flat out WORKED, the minimum sentence was imposed on my friend and prison time was avoided. What was so helpful was that Brian skillfully assembled facts for me to point out to the judge, that clearly impacted this favorable outcome. As a result of my consultation with Brian that resulted in a positive outcome in court, there is additionally a GREAT CHANCE that this case will YET get overthrown. Consult with Brian? A GREAT BIG YES! Don't think twice, just do it and thank me (and him), later. I plan to recommend Brian to my own clients whether they need a consultation or need to hire a reliable attorney.

If I could give Mr. Manchester 100 stars I would. Speaking from experience if you need a criminal defense attorney, your first call should be to Brian Manchester. I contacted his office at 3 pm on Tuesday and by 8:30 am Wednesday my issue was fully resolved. He truly does have his clients best interest as his first priority and he was available to me by phone, text and e-mail. Do yourself a favor, hire Brian Manchester.

In May 2017 I rushed my son to the hospital unknowinging the horrible diesaster that would come of this Emergency room trip where I took my 8 moth old to be seen. All day I wore my fire arm on my side like mostly every day I do being a young mom in a town that’s going downhill by criminals that rob and do senseless acts. After I realized the uncomfort of the check in Nurse I decided to call my son’s father to come sit with my and son I while I take my gun to my car. I come back in and a woman made a false report because she heard PART of my sentence spoken between me and my sons father. And police showed up in response to a call of an ACTIVE shooter. My gun never left my holster, and the report was misleading and I was unarmed when I supposedly made a threat. I was arrested and my son was left behind at the hospital. No legal guardian, no emergency contacts were contacted by hospital staff and I was sitting in jail, confused and missing my kids badly. I was bailed out, thankfully. I went to my sisters were she got on google and found Brian Manchester. I begged, borrowed and pleaded for money to hire Mr Manchester which I’m still paying back the man that lent the money to me. No complaints though, had my jury trial on Tuesday May 22nd and during that trial I witnessed Brian Manchester do a closing statement that showed the jury the truth, and he was very compassionate during the whole trial. He was determined to get the truth out and he did. I’m sitting at home watching my 3 year old daughter and my now 1 and a half year old son sleep and I owe it all to Brian Manchester. Smartest move I made was hiring him. He don’t give up, he knows a lot about the law and our rights. Any one ever tells you to get a “bulldog attorney” then call Brian Manchester. When he fights for you he really fights for you. I’ll always suggest him to anyone. 5 stats for sure. You don’t understand how long that year and one week was. Now I get to watch my children grow up with my in their lives and see my daughter go to her first day of headstart in sept. Be here for my sons second birthday in sept, and breath fresh air. I felt scared in the beginning, and trapped because one woman made up a false report that could of ruined my life. But with Brian as my attorney I got my life back, My kids got their mommy, and I still got tears of joy knowing that I made the right choice when hiring the best attorney I could have. If you see this brian, bless you! Bless your parents for raising you and bless the college that taught you. Your an excellent attorney. Be proud. I’m proud of your accomplishments. Without you my kids would be without a mom and I’d not be breathing fresh air during the day and watching my kids sleep peacefully at night. Thank you! As for anyone going through what I did, please know your rights and please hire Brian Manchester. Don’t plead guilty because they offer a “good deal” and make you feel like there’s no out. Talk to Brian before you do anything.

If you don't hire Brian Manchester, you just may be legally insane. I have 4 DUI in 6 years, 5 lifetime. I was facing 1-5yrs. State Prison MANDATORY MINIMUM for my 3rd in 10. I served 60 days county. With my 4th in 10 still pending, I'm facing 18-60 months State Prison MANDATORY MINIMUM. The District Attorney would not move off this sentence. That did not deter Brian Manchester. By the time he was done this morning, I have to serve 11 months in county with work release. His work behind the scenes and what I witnessed in the court room this morning was impressive. I'm sitting home with my feet up right now writing this because the judge told me go home and relax and report to county tomorrow. Crazy right?? There's more... the judge remarked at end, and I quote, " I've never given a sentence like this in 22yrs on the bench ". Don't waste your time deciding on which attorney to hire. Pay Brian Manchester and get out of his way. If you don't, you just may be legally insane.

In April 2016 I was charged with low and hi grade DUI. After extensive research and uncountable phone calls to attorneys I hired Brian Manchester. So glad I did. I have a criminal history from 19 years ago so the DA wanted to throw the book at me. Including up to 3 years in jail. Just over a year later and untold hours of work by Brian I have no jail time and a CDL suspension for only a year. Thank you Brian and team for all your had work.

My husband and I were caught growing marijuana in Huntingdon County and we hired Mr. Manchester to defend us. We were each charged with 2 felonies and 2 misdemeanors and were looking at serious jail time. Not only did he get most of the charges dropped in the plea deal; we both got probation, avoided incarceration, and my husband kept his job. Mr. Manchester and his associate, Greg, always took the time to listen to us, answered our questions, and worked diligently behind the scenes on our case. If you find yourself on the wrong side of the law, immediately call Brian Manchester and Associates. You won't regret it.

I hired Brian to help me handle a second paraphernalia/ possession of Marijuana charge in Bellefonte, PA. He was able to get me a second ARD opportunity which rarely to never happens. He was professional, punctual, and came very well prepared. I am very happy that I made the decision to hire him. If anyone is looking for a great defense lawyer, look no further.

I hired Brian Manchester to help me fight a DUI charge in McKean County. Brian investigated the police report and found a discrepancy in the paperwork which ended up dismissing my DUI charge. Brian was able to help me get a plea deal with speeding ticket fines and no charge of DUI. Brian fought for me as his client and I was very satisfied with his services! I would highly recommend this lawyer!

I found myself in a professional mess. It started in 2014 and case was final in May 2017. I was charged with taking over $600k from one company and moving it to another company’s operating account to cover payroll, daily operating expenses and to pay outside vendors. Over the course of 3 years Brian worked miracles. He proved that I moved the monies not to benefit myself but to help the company in distress. Through extensive research and great negotiating skills Brian was able to get the $600k down to $299k. Even though I did not take the money to benefit myself I owned up to the charges. I did take the money but used it in a way to help others. In the end I received a small jail sentence, probation and restitution of $299k. Brian was very thorough in explaining all the legal processes. He always had time to take my calls, respond to emails and even meet with me on the weekends. He is a miracle worker in the legal system.

I hired Brian for a distribution case for weed and he takes everything you say into consideration and treats you like a real person, not just another client. Highly recommend him, also has given me free consultations after my case was closed each time I had a question. Great man!

I was facing me second DUI. Brian Manchester took my case extremely seriously. He made it clear to me that he would fight for me. When the DA made a offer he explained it to me and gave me all my options. He gave me confidence in my case when I didn't think that was possible. Brian fought for my case and with the DA for over 2 years. He gave me constant updates and options. Brian managed to get the best possible deal. He along with Manchester & Associate also helped me keep my job and continue my career. I am eternally grateful for that. I highly recommend you retain Manchester & Associates.

Brian was extraordinary. He represented me in a serious DUI case. It if weren't for his diligence and dedication to my case, my sentence would have been substantially worse. He is fast at responding, seems to genuinely care about client well-being, and has a passion for what he does. If you get a DUI, he is the person to represent you.
