Howard Jason Manheimer

Mr. Manheimer was a pleasure to work with. While being a little difficult to get a hold of at times, was genuinely apologetic, and always did get in contact with me in advance of court proceedings to discuss my case and calm my nerves. Felt very comfortable speaking with him, and that he was actually... listening to me. He kept my career and ramifications of any pleas in mind when handling my matter to reach the most positive outcome. The first public defender I was assigned, I felt as if I was just another nameless, faceless, file in her stack for the day. She barely made eye contact and did not care about my side of the situation. I highly recommend Mr. Manheimer. He is a strong advocate for his clients and makes your voice feel heard.

He was all about getting paid! Every meeting was about how much money I had for him. Once he was paid I did hear anything from him about my case! When it started getting closer to my trial I kept trying to meet with him. We set many different times and dates and would cancel the day be for. Sometime...s it was even an hour be for the appointment. Final we meet a couples of days be for my trial and was pressing my to take a deal. I didnt want a deal because I knew there was evidence to prove I didn't do what I was being charged with. Comes to find out at my trial he wasn't even ready for it he gathered nothing for it. So because we had no defense I was found guilt and now facing 10 years!! $7000.00 out the window. I'm Appealing It. I talked to a new attorney and he was in such disbelief and couldn't believe that that happened. In one hour this other attorney talk to me more about my case then in the whole year and a half I had Howard. On the bright side I was told I should have no problem having an appeal granted. A court appointed attorney!!!
