Lana Manitta's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Lana and I worked together at a prior firm. She is a first-rate defense attorney--smart, passionate, and fearless. I routinely refer people to her for criminal defense matters."
"Lana's passion and dedication to her clients is exceptional. Lana works incredibly hard to pursue every avenue and achieve her clients' goals, while treating everyone involved with respect and courtesy. Lana has the excellent reputation in the legal community and detailed knowledge of the courts where she practices that can only come from years of experience and diligent practice. I have been proud to work for Lana since I began practicing law in 2015, and would recommend her to family and friends without hesitation."
"Lana is the firm's leading criminal defense lawyer and domestic relations litigator. She specializes in federal criminal cases in Virginia."
"I fully endorse Lana as a skilled criminal defense lawyer."
"Highly capable family law attorney who is dedicated to client success."
"Lana's tenacious advocacy and very apparent skill, as demonstrated in and out of court, give her clients and co-counsel confidence. You can't put a price on that. She is extremely well-qualified in complex federal litigation, and is a go-to person for other lawyers who have questions in this area of practice. Lana gives you the straight talk and gets down to business with a smile. I highly recommend her!"
"Lana is the only attorney I have seen to secure an acquittal in a death penalty eligible murder trial. The federal government does not bring a murder charge unless it is confident of success. Lana's victory in that case was of a piece with the unrivaled competence, honesty and determination she brings to every case."
