Federal Drug Charges Dismissed

I was charged in federal court with conspiracy and possession with intent to distribute heroin. I am home now because God led my family to attorney Jeff Manciagli who, using his knowledge and experience and a lot of hard work, convinced the prosecutor to dismiss those charges. Based on how he repre...sented me, I can guarantee you that Jeff Manciagli is an excellent lawyer.

Great outcome!

I retained Jeff’s services upon being charged with dui, attempting to elude and reckless driving. With Jeff at the helm, it was pleaded down with some of the more serious charges dropped. The outcome was more than satisfactory. Furthermore, at the time of my case, I had been living in California for... almost a year. Jeff worked it out so that I didn’t even have to return to Atlanta to face the judge. He entered my plea in absentia, submitted the necessary paperwork and that was that. It’s all behind me. I was extremely pleased with the outcome of my case and would not hesitate to recommend Jeff to anyone.

The best lawyer ever

Jeff Manciagli is one of the best criminal defense attorneys that I have come across. He represented me about 15 years ago in a federal drug conspiracy case and I was very pleased with the outcome of the case. Since then, I have kept in touch with him and I know that he has continued to obtain very f...avorable outcomes for his clients in some very serious cases. In addition to his legal expertise, Mr. Manciagli treats his clients with respect and honesty, which is something that cannot be said about every attorney. Mr. Manciagli has lived and traveled all over the worId, including Latin America, and his legal work has taken him to Colombia, Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, and Jamaica. It was important for me, as a foreigner in the U.S., to have an attorney who understood me from a cultural level and who I could speak to in Spanish. If you or a loved one needs a criminal defense attorney, Jeff Manciagli is the attorney you should call. Jeff Manciagli es uno de los mejores abogados de defensa criminal que me he topado. Me representó en un caso de conspiración de drogas federal hace unos 15 años y estaba muy complacido con el resultado del caso. Desde entonces, he mantenido en contacto con él y sé que ha seguido obtener resultados muy favorables para sus clientes en algunos casos muy graves. Además de su experiencia legal, Sr. Manciagli trata a sus clientes con respeto y honestidad, que es algo que no se puede decir acerca de cada abogado. El Sr. Manciagli ha vivido y viajado por todo el mundo, incluyendo América Latina, y su trabajo legal le ha llevado a Colombia, México, Guatemala, Panamá y Jamaica. Era importante para mí, como un extranjero en los Estados Unidos, a tener un abogado que me entendió desde un nivel cultural y que podía hablar en español. Si usted o un ser querido necesita a un abogado de defensa criminal, Jeff Manciagli es el abogado que debe llamar.
