About:
Attorney Matthew J. Mankey consistently produces positive outcomes through diligent preparation, open communication and a thorough knowledge of the law. Our team understands the nuances and key points that can turn cases around. We will use expert investigators and independent laboratories to conduct our own tests, collect our own evidence and take a number of other important steps to bolster your defense. We push the government to prove every aspect of its case. We demand complete disclosure, and we receive the utmost respect from prosecutors and investigators because of the strong reputation we have earned over the years. When we do negotiate with prosecutors, we do so from a position of strength because they know we will go to trial if a fair agreement cannot be reached.

"Mankey and his Assistant, Miah, were very quick to get things done and ensured I understood everything throughout the process. Very good pricing, including free consult. They were very polite; didn’t just assist with legal matters—they made sure I was doing okay as we were going through the process. Very personal touch to a professional experience."
