I can not put into words the gratitude and admiration I have for Attorney Lamanna. She is brilliant in the courtroom. When I first saw her in action she was defending a father who was made out to be a terrible person by the other party. They were so convincing. I thought the man was a scumbag. As soon as she started talking she unraveled their story quickly, clearly showing the mother was a liar. Needless to say, the man won the contempt charge that day. I followed her out of the courtroom and asked for her number. It was the best decision I could have made. She does not file frivolous motions. She will literally save you thousands of dollars because of this. Do not expect her to bend the truth. She will tell you when you’re wrong and guide you to do the right thing. She is exceptional at what she does, but more importantly she is genuinely a good person.

Tears of happiness , Jennifer SAVED ME , If there’s one person you want fighting for you , it’s Jennifer Lamanna , my case was difficult and I was suffering so much from stress, not only did Jennifer save me and win me my cause , but she also played the role of calming me down emotionally and having me understand my situation and scenarios to feel secure that I’m not stranded or don’t know what might happen. In a contempt hearing , where I clearly went against orders , she brilliantly saved me , after the hearing a police officer came up to Jennifer to ask for her info . Just one example from many hearings. this is who you want , believe me,

I have known attorney Lamanna professionally for about a decade.  At no point during this time, over the course of several professional engagements, have I found her to be anything other than highly professional, ethical, and astutely knowledgable about the subject matters in dispute.  It is difficult for me to comprehend the comments of this shameful anonymous reviewer as throughout each dealing with Atty Lamanna she very clearly stated not only multiple courses of action highlighting very clearly the costs associated with each course but strategies to keep those costs down. The one time I did not engage Atty Lamanna for a matter in dispute, and only because she felt she was not knowledgable enough in this area of law to represent me best, I regret wholeheartedly that I was unable to convince her to represent me as I feel her representation of my matter would have far exceeded the representation I received from a supposed expert in the field.  If you have a legal matter in dispute, don't walk, RUN to Atty. Lamanna.  She will listen to you, advise you knowledgably, even if to refer you to the best attorney to work with you.  I find it offensive that this cowardly reviewer, who will not provide their name, states she is a money grubber.  I continue to owe her for my representation both in gratitude and financially.  She has never overcharged me or upsold me on services that were not necessary.  Clearly this reviewers sole goal is to disparage this super attorney.  I can only presume that something was very very wrong with their legal matter or behavior if Atty. Lamanna is no longer representating them. Most importantly, Atty. Lamanna has a rock solid reputation amongst her peers and is the attorney other attorneys hire and consult with. Why should you settle for less. I didn't, well, actually once. Never again.

I was actually working with my very first attorney on my divorce case and Attorney Lamanna's partner knew about my case through a common friend and indirectly influenced me that my current attorney is not doing good Job as expected in my case and she will provide me a very effective and better rate representation. I am not sure if she has ever done any divorce cases but she promised me a fair and good representation and made a commitment to not do double billing with me. During our intake when I went with my handicap father, she was introduced to me by her associate attorney. I assumed that they work together or in parallel but did not know at that time that I will be double billed for the same hour and same discussion which I found out much later when I saw my first invoice. She and her partner post ridiculous billing hours and did not stop charging me even after I fired them. Not sure I would ever recommend this attorney as she was rude, threatened me to withdraw from my case, very disrespectful to the client and will not take calls or respond to emails for several days and only created more problems for me and my ex-wife. Sad part is that I hired her based upon a strong recommendations from a close friend and put all my trust into her and her partner. They are just interested in making money out of you. If you want to waste your hard earned money, get insulted, threatened and get your case compromised then go ahead and hire attorney Jennifer. She and her associate will trick you and will win your confidence in the beginning. She will not send you invoice in a timely manner and when she sends you have to watch it carefully for errors and double/ triple billings and want you to pay them before they give you invoice on their retainer. After her associate met my spouse her behavior changed towards me and she and her partner started ignoring me and my case with long period of no communication and ignored my repeated emails/text and calls. She will fail to keep her promised phone appointment as by this time they had cashed my $25000/- check in just 2 months. I have documented all there wrong doing and going to file a complaint to the Bar counsel for partial refund on my fee paid to them. God bless them and their practice as these unethical and crooked lawyers do not care for clients who are vulnerable, emotional wrecks and suffering from the hands of their own spouses and bring bad name to this profession. She is supposed to help her clients but she speaks to them in a rude and intimidating manner and forces her ideas and is not willing to listen to them. She also misquoted her rates in her invoice and corrected only when you protest and show her signed agreement.I also found out that she reached out to my current divorce attorney and tried to influence him and my case in retaliation as I reviewed her on AVVO and threatened me as usual again to put lean against my house for overbilling me in retaliation even after I fired her and her partner from my case 20 + days back. In fact she send her invoice to my new attorney and tried to influence him in my case. I wish her well and their practice as these unethical and crooked lawyers do not care for clients who are vulnerable, emotional wrecks and suffering from the hands of their own spouses and bring bad name to this profession. I am taking this very seriously so that other innocent clients who are looking for justice shall not get into her trap. I will ask for relief from Probate and Family court and with Bar council. Thank God there are still good and ethical attorneys who understand my pain and are willing to fight for justice and ethical treatment of the clients.
