Richard A Manzo

I hired Mr. Manzo a few years ago to take over my divorce case after it was handled previously by two other attorneys who I felt did not handle my case properly and kept litigating in court for over a year and a half and overcharging me for their services. Mr. Manzo charged me a flat fee of $10,000.0...0 and took over my case. At first, I felt that he was very expensive and that I was trapped and had no other choice but to hire him since no other attorney was willing to take my case and I was exhausted of all this. Mr. Manzo did everything he can to avoid going to court, he listened attentively and kept me informed and we worked on a settlement with the opposing party. I trusted him entirely and was happy with the final agreement. Even afterwards, if I had any legal question, I would call him and he was there to guide me and give me legal advice at no charge. Two years later when I found out that my former husband was making more income, I wanted to take him back to court for modification of child support; I called Mr. Manzo again to represent me in court, he advised me that the judge will have more sympathy for me if I would represent myself, and to show that I am not wasting any more money to pay for legal fees. He answered all my questions at no charge, I was very confident and filled out and filed all the legal papers by myself and appeared in court as a "pro se". I was prepared to fight alone and got an increase of nearly $300.00. Mr. Manzo is an experienced and skilled attorney, he is very competent and has a good work ethic.
