Brian Manchester is AMAZING! He responded to all my questions, and concerns via text, and on the phone quickly, and knows his stuff! He did his best possible for my son, was super knowledgeable, experienced in this type of situation, and thank goodness worked hard for us, and jail time was avoided! He is THE BEST!

I can't ever thank Mr. Manchester enough! He saved mine and my husband's life. Mr. Manchester defended my husband who had five felony charges...Mr. Manchester is the most kind and caring compassinate man ( but strict) when defending his clients. With all that being said my husband was found "NOT GUILTY" on all five counts. Without a doubt in my mind he's one of the best damn lawyers that you can have on your side. I'm glad he was on ours. Again Brian Manchester thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

I very much appreciate all that Mr. Manchester has done for me concerning my defense. I was facing 2 felony charges and numerous more related to a DUI accident. I was facing up to 7 years in state prison, which got reduced to 45 days in county jail. Mr. Manchester was always there to answer any questions and concerns that I had during the stressful time before the hearings. He accepted many texts and responded to every one in a concerned and caring manner. He was always direct and honest, so I did not get my hopes up in case things did not work out in my favor. He is driven to do the best job that he can for his clients and will give you a professional, but yet, personal outlook on your chances for your defense. I would recommend his services to others and feel comfortable about stating that he is a great choice for your legal needs. He will do the best he can for you, and truly cares about the services that he provides, to get the best possible outcome.
our son was in a traffic accident and brian came highly recommended. he was great to work with and went above and beyond in and out of the courtroom. he should be your first call when you need representation.

I would recommend Manchester & Associates to any person in need of representation for serious felony offenses. I was pulled over by a PA state trooper and facing two felonies and a 8 month minimum jail sentence. I wanted to avoid jail time at all cost, even if that meant pleading guilty. I did not see a way out of my situation without serving a jail sentence. Because I was driving the car I thought my case was black and white I was "caught red handed" as the saying goes. Brian took me through every step of the process and kept me very informed on what options I had available to me. Three months after I bailed out the cops released the tape of me being pulled over. Brian reviewed the video of the stop and informed me that the PA state trooper had no reason to pull me over at all. This information changed my entire case as well as what I was willing to plea to. The district attorney offered me multiple plea deals but with no priors I wanted to keep my record clean and decided to fight the charges. Brian worked hard and I received NO JAIL TIME. Also, my criminal record is clean so I have a second chance with my career path that would not be available to me with a felony on my record. I'm thankful for Brian Manchester and if you're looking for representation in the state of PA look no further Brian Manchester is the best choice.

I got to know some of the Manchester family when I worked across the street at the waffle shop years ago. Then in November 2016 I got my first DUI, my first instinct was to call Manchester and associates the very next business day and spoke with Brian who was very up front and honest about what I could be facing! I was scared but luckily he got me the lowest sentence possible, ARD. Brian and his associates had been there every step of the way in the year and a half that I had to go through the court system. When ever I had a question they were always there to answer it for me. Thank you to Manchester and associates for helping me out!

I was falsley accused of a serious crime, never in my life I would imagine myself in this postion. I begin to interview many criminal defense attorney in the surrounding area but only one law firm stood out, and that is Brian Manchester and associate. I went in for a free consultation to go over the case, he pointed out many inconsistenies in the report and said I will be fine and rest assure we will do our best to fight for you. I must mention, his partner is a former DA, her knowledge and attention to detail is superior. During the process, Brian updated me and answer any questions I had during the investigation. Although I lost over 30lbs and countless nights of sleep I definitely felt a ease of mind knowing I have this awesome law firm fighting for my freedom. In the end I was never charged or arrested and I have to thank Brian and associate for saving my life. If ever I need any legal assistance I will not hesitate to contact them, and if I know of anyone in need, I will certainly pass on your name to them.

Excellent legal representation. They were very responsive and available to our needs and questions, even meeting with us on Saturday. Brian was great to work with. We received the best possible outcome which was due to the their knowledge of the legal system and skill. When a legal situation arises, you need to get the best representation you can. I'm certain our outcome was due to the firm that represented us.

The best possible representation you can get! When things were looking grim, I got not only what I thought was the best case scenario but even better! I was told by other options that I would probably have to face prison time, but Manchester & Associates managed to go above and beyond to make sure that didn't happen. They will always be upfront about your situation, won't make promises, and handle the your case with the utmost professionalism. Would absolutely recommend to those looking for representation in Pennsylvania.

Here’s the short review: CALL THIS GUY
The longer: I had initially found an attorney in Williamsport on Google however he said he was not familiar with the laws due to the fact that I lived out of state and had a CDL. He stated he did not know Brian personally however stated as a prosecutor he hated going up against him as Brian was aggressive and knowledgeable. I want to clarify Brian does not come across as an aggressive person, he’s actually quite laid back. No doubt he was referring to his ability to stand his ground as a client advocate.
I feel confident that he got me the best possible outcome considering my circumstances. His secretary was prompt and courteous, reminded me of court dates. Brian called me on his cell and clarified any questions. I don’t plan to be in that situation ever again however if I need legal services in that region of Pennsylvania. I know who I’m calling. You would be smart to do the same.

Who Cares
I choose not to relive the nightmare experienced in Clarion County, PA but would instead feel compelled to express my gratitude and appreciation to Brian for his amazing work. I am NOT a resident of Clarion County, nor do I reside in Pennsylvania. Knowing the incompetence of most small town law enforcement coupled with their insatiable appetite for money, I feared for my life, my safety, my assets, my physical well being, my dog's future, my finances & my sanity after being illegally arrested, detained, threatened, harrassed, persecuted, demoralized, disrespected and verbally assaulted.
I was faced with the 'Sophie's Choice' of either fleeing the state with a bounty on my head (while enduring the inevitable warrant & extradition) or appearing in court with no legal representation (as I had requested a continuance from the Judge but it was denied). I was desperate and forced to beg for help from an old attorney friend. When the phone call came from Brian, I got on my knees and sacrificed all of remaining beef jerkey, chicken bones, camping candles.....whatever I could find to thank the Lawyer God for Brian.
It is important to know that when I made that desperate phone call, it was Labor Day weekend, when most of the US is boating, gambling, sleeping, fishing, biking or camping. I kid you not, Brian not only picked up the phone (while clearly enjoying a well-deserved vacation), he spoke with me for over an HOUR! He was clear, responsive, knowledgeable, honest, respectful, genuine, forthcoming, patient & experienced.
He followed through with every single promise and commitment made on the initial phone call. He was nothing short of amazing! I am eternally grateful to him for many things. I found his rates more than reasonable. When it comes to dealing with a corrupt legal system, any price is worth paying. I think he was the best bargain in Western Pennsylvania.
I will gladly speak to anyone who is mistrustful of the 'feedback' or 'review' component on Google or who may need more information. I am not a 'paid actor' ....this is not an 'infomercial' I am just one of those people who will be deeply grateful to Brian.

They are quick to return calls, emails and answer any questions you may have. I am a medical marijuana patient in Pennsylvania that was charged with a DUI. Due to the work he put into my case, and his understanding of the science behind the testing and DUI law in PA I was able to get the DUI charge dropped. I highly recommend Manchester and Associates for any legal help you may need.

Brian Manchester is AMAZING! My fiance was facing some serious charges and if they gave her the maximum for everything it could have been 17 years. But with Brian's help it was down to 21 months! He has experts he can call, he has an amazing work ethic, and his brain works like a super computer. He always responds fast. He's 100% honest about everything. You can tell just by being around him for 5 minutes that he's earned that level of confidence because of the level of his skill. Brian, if you're reading this I just wanted to say you should wear a cape because you're the Legal Superman. I would recommend you every day of the week. Thank you so much!

Manchester and associates is a very professional law firm that still remains empathetic to you as a person. They understand the fears and apprehension you're having. They calm the storm raging in your head. Brian himself met with me right away. Anytime I would call after the initial consultation, Brian or one of his associates, (also lawyers), would actually answer and help, not just try to dismiss my question, no matter how trivial. Brian's greatest strength, in my opinion, is his knowledge of the science involved in a particular case. His masterful use of facts and testimony from expert witnesses gives you the best chance for success against a prosecutor that has one job. Convict. When a case seems hopeless and you're feeling backed into a corner, Manchester and associates will find a way. Thanks Brian!

Brian Manchester, Esq., is simply the best! He is an excellent attorney, and a warm and intelligent man. Brian explains the law AND the science to his clients, listens to all of their concerns, and answers questions in a clear and comprehensive manner. My husband was in a horrific car accident in July, 2017, when he lost consciousness and ran into another car and then into a telephone pole. The accident left him permanently disabled, with a broken neck and brain trauma. We believe he suffered a series of mini-strokes while driving, which had happened on at least one prior occasion. However, since my husband was taking legally-prescribed pain medication at the time, those medications showed up in his blood test following the wreck. As such, he was charged with a drug-related DUI and various other traffic offenses. Instead of assuming, like the District Attorney did, that my husband was incapacitated, Brian Manchester listened to the complete story of what happened. We were able to explain to him that this was a health problem, not a driving-under-the-influence problem. Brian took the time to examine the blood results and then explained them to us. He showed us two things: first, that the level of pain medication in my husband's system was on the lower end of the spectrum, and second, that one of the charges filed against my husband was premised upon a blood metabolite that is not even illegal to have in your system in Pennsylvania. Brian then filed motions with the Court to suppress my husband's blood test results. Since the accident left my husband with multiple physical and mental problems, keeping him out of the prison system was the most important aspect of the entire process for us. We explained to Brian that our biggest concern was that my husband's health was too precarious to withstand incarceration. Due to Brian Manchester's outstanding scientific knowledge and the respect he has earned from years of experience dealing with the Centre County District Attorney's Office, Brian was able to negotiate a plea deal to a lesser charge that would keep my husband out of jail. We feel so blessed to have had an attorney like Brian Manchester, who actually listened to "our side of the story" and could explain the science behind the blood test results to us in terms that anyone could understand. He also made certain to discuss our thoughts and concerns before talking to the District Attorney so that he knew exactly what goals to work towards in plea negotiations. I would recommend Brian Manchester to anybody who needs a great attorney!
