Luck of The Draw

I made the mistake of engaging this so called attorney to sssist me in a matter where a car was sold to me as new on paper and then later discovered to be a demonstrator vehicle. He took monies to send letters and then sent me alone without representation to meeting with the selling dealer to get fur...ther crucified. After the crucifiction I endurred months of excuses and personal problems before he finally sent me an agreement that was far from what had been previously discussed almost a year later. The car we are talking about is a quarter of a million dollar car, so as you might imagine I am a very reasonable person as life has been quite good to me. But the unethical manner in which this so called attorney treated me is just wrong. People like this should not be licensed to practice law. A big thumbs down for this lawyer.

Excellent Attorney

Dana is one of those few attorneys that truly deeply cares on their clients best interest. From the moment Dana took my case he was very due diligent and pro-active. He was able to fully resolve my case with out the need of a lawsuit (although he was more than ready) I highly recommend Mr. Manner on ...any bad auto deals and other consumer protection related issues. Will use again if need be.

Overall excellent job

Very fast response to my question. He took the time to review the information I had and gave me his honest opinion all free of charge. If I am even in need of a lawyer he will be my first call. Thank you for your time I wish there were more of you who aren't all about making a dollar.

Great Consumer Protection Lawyer

Dana was one of the most courteous and genuine people I have had the opportunity to do business with. As a law professional, he quickly understood the details of my case, drafted a cease and desist letter for my consumer protection needs, and went out of his way to get the job done. I would highly ...recommend Dana Manner for any consumer protection legal issue.

Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act Case

Mr. Manner helped me with a case involving undisclosed damage and foul play by a very large firm where I purchased a used vehicle. Without going into any specifics regarding the case, everything was done exactly as described by Mr. Manner. If you need to hear the truth from someone who knows the ins ...and outs of this difficult area of expertise (automotive fraud), don't hesitate in calling Dana. He is honest, reliable, and will tell you exactly what the limitations of the law are. If by any chance he gets to read my review, once again all I can humbly say is thank you. It is such a breath of fresh air when someone speaks the truth and actually does what they promised. I would highly recommend Mr. Manner to any of my friends or any future law related needs that may arise in the future.

"I am pleased to endorse this lawyer. There are few skilled consumer/lemon law attorneys throughout the state of Florida. I have reviewed Mr. Manner's answers to questions posed here on Aavo and find that he provides accurate and straight forward responses. He has a thorough grasp of consumer issues such as lemon law and sales fraud matters. His efforts here in providing assistance to the general public is a valuable resource and he is a credit to the legal community. I would not hesitate to retain him if I needed legal help."
