I'm shocked at the reviews

My life was almost taken away from me due to a false arrest. My first lawyer tried to get me to take a plead and made me feel worst for standing for the truth. Meehan was the first beam of light. In my case he showed up and with the given evidence he won my case. I've grown up in the church and not o...nce done drugs or seen it in real life yet accused of selling. Life was crushed and I'm thankful for you Sr. Many blessing's to you and your family.

I f you like being ignored and misinformed Ed is your man!

Used Ed on my case. He does not keep you informed, I tried contacting him for months since I retained him and vot the run around so bad that I just stopped calling. I am on trial at this moment and I dont have a clue as to what is going on. Very rude and childish in his behavior. Total waste of time ...and money..

Experience

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2021.

Stayed Suspension, Probation issued in PA, 2021

updated on 07/30/2021

Suspension means an attorney will lose his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When a suspension is stayed and the attorney is given probation, the State monitors the attorney's activities for a time. If the probation period is uneventful, the attorney returns to practice when it expires.

Censure issued in PA, 2006

updated on 03/28/2011

Censure means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State censures the lawyer in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.
