Reliable Lawyer that Knew the Laws

From the beginning Brian was very enthusiastic about my case. When I first contacted him, he gave me a background about himself that provided me confidence before I hired him. I wasn't able to pay the retainer upfront and he was willing to work out a payment plan. Once I hired him he was in contact w...ith myself getting my side of the story and then contacted the district attorney to receive a copy of my motor vehicle report; which included my traffic stop video. He took the time to research my case and found out that the wrong form for my warnings were signed; allowing him to to have my blood results for my BAC be removed from evidence. At that point he suggested taking the case to the judge trial and not to accept the ARD program. He explained that even accepting the ARD program I would still raise my insurance and I would still pay the same if I was convicted of a DUI. I choose to take the case to trial. While at trial he was very informative of what was being side if I didn't understand something, he would explain what it meant. When it came to the Trooper testifying based on my traffic stop video, Brian was able to point out that several of the "clues" the trooper used to have me arrested for DUI were not valid based on the training and manuals that the Trooper had training on. Brian had also gone through the same training the Trooper had on issuing a field sobriety test, so he was knowledgeable omg knowing that the clues. He was able to argue that there needed to be 2 clues from the Heal to Toe test and 2 clues from the One Leg Stand test - Brian was able to prove that I only showed 1 clue for each test instead of 2. After each side was finished the judge returned and found me not guilty for my DUI. Brian told me later that he would file the necessary paperwork to have the arrest removed from my record. Brian was very informative throughout the whole proccess. I hope to never have to use home again but if myself, friend or family member gets into trouble with a DUI he will be the first one I contact.

4 time DUI offender

I had a series of 4 DUIs in a 2 year period. When I got the last one, while on probation AND driving with a DUI suspended license, I thought I was going to jail for a long, long time. Mr. Manchester fought hard for over a year litigating everything he could. After efforts to have the blood thrown out... of the case, and after threatening to go to trial equipped with testimony from a highly qualified scientist, the court settled for me to do 3 weekends in jail. Now I'm sober for 18 months. Thanks Mr. Manchester!

5 star Attorney

When facing a DUI in PA you will definitely want Brian Manchester in your corner to fight for you. As a commercial driver facing losing my CDL possibly for life he was able to significantly get my charges reduced. When you want the best considered Manchester and Associates.

Best lawyer money can buy!!!

When in doubt call lawyer, definitely call Brian Manchester. I was scared and didn't know what to do and I had several lawyers before him just take money from me. I went out of my way to travel to him because he instilled confidence in me from the get go. He made sure all my charges were dismissed a...nd it was the best money I ever spent I tell everybody about Brian Manchester.
