What our clients are saying about us.

A LAWYER AND A FRIEND!

My son was in a serious car accident and we just did not know what to do.. But then we were introduced to Mr. Campen who from day one gave us hope…

It was not just about the compensation for my son’s injuries but the way Mr. Campen would talk with us, keep in constant communication, check on John’s recovery process, encourage and sympathized with us… As a busy single mother it was a blessing to have met such a caring and compassionate person whom I could trust to do his best for us so that I would not have to deal with that burden and could focus on nursing my son back to health… I want to publicly thank Mr. Steven Campen and his team of dedicated workers for all that they did for us… It’s not easy to find people who truly care!!! Thank you sincerely!

Please continue the great work you are doing Mr. Campen and may God bless you and your firm richly!

SUPER COUNSEL

“[Steve] has represented me in cases that were of a very serious nature. He is a lion in the fight and doesn’t quit until he wins. I highly recommend him if you are in a bind and need a great lawyer. Steve Campen is the one you want in your defense!”

Jose Cuesta

REALLY HELPED ME DURING A DIFFICULT TIME

“When I was younger, I did dumb things, just like a lot of people. But in spite of doing dumb things, Steve never made me feel dumb when I came to him for help. He was empathetic with my case, and the first thing he did is explain the entire process, how we could be pro-active and start working together immediately, and what I could expect as a result. And beyond that, he was upfront and honest about each step of the process from start to finish, even if there was a hard truth! You want someone like that representing you, and I was so glad I had Steve to personally speak for me and help me through my case. Also, his office staff was responsive and knowledgeable when I called with any question, so I never felt uninformed. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Campen as an excellent legal counsel, which is why his business card is a permanent fixture in my wallet.”

Thanks not only for the use of the book, but for taking the time to answer my questions and offer encouragement and for giving me the opportunity to work. There have been times when I would have been lost without you. You’re an example of what a Christian attorney should be and a model to which I aspire.

Once again, thanks for everything and God bless you and yours!”

TRUSTWORTHY, SENSITIVE, AND VERY RESPONSIVE

“I contacted Steve Campen by phone. I gave him the particulars of my case and what I would like to have him do. I was contacted by his associate shortly thereafter for follow-up information and within a reasonable amount of time, I received the document I needed as well as an invoice that was within the parameters of what we discussed and reflected his sensitivity to the restricted resources available to pursue this case. I was very pleased to be able to write this review for someone I would go back to even though I moved a 1,000 miles away!!”

-Russ Hermanson

MIRACULOUS RESULT

Steve,

It has been an amazing adventure working with you on the Robinson case. Thank you for giving me the opportunity and for all that you did to lead us through to a miraculous result. It was an experience I will never forget. I don’t expect us to be working any cases 20 years from now but I hope we will both be alive and living for the glory of our Great God, Jesus Christ. May God richly bless all that you do in the days ahead.

RESOLVED DECADES OLD PROBLEM …

Thank you for resolving a decades-old problem. As you likely surmised, our family tends to be reactionary rather than pro-active, and I am so grateful to you and to Katherine for seeing this through to resolution. Your letters have entertained me a great deal, I appreciate your wit and professionalism!

-Christina C.

OUTGOING, CLEVER AND EAGER TO ASSIST!

Samantha assisted me with a landlord/tenant contract issue. She was quick to learn the situation and eager to assist me in resolving the situation. She listened to all of the details and formulated an appropriate response. She was excellent to work with and made me feel comfortable in a very uncomfortable situation. Thank you for your help!

BETTER OUTCOME THEN I EVER THOUGHT!

She was excellent. She did everything that she could and then some! My husband was facing charges that could possibly land him in jail. They were very serious charges. She found all the paperwork and when she couldn’t get documentation from the hospital you know she went to the hospital and got the documentation. She called repeatedly to the state’s attorney trying to get this settled out of court when he hadn’t even opened up the case File to even begin to look at it. The state’s attorney wouldn’t settle out of court or even look at the file but she didn’t stop; she kept on him. Court date came she still didn’t stop; she kept having them look at the paperwork – what can we do? what can we do? This isn’t his fault. Finally we got done and it’s all over! No jail time, no fine, it never happened!!!! I could not have asked for a more attentive lawyer. Thank you so much for everything that you’ve done.

-Kenny Barnes

FOREVER GRATEFUL

“I will always be forever grateful towards Samantha Nicole Manganaro for all of her her hard work and dedication in my case with family law. Where others turned me me down and in some cases took my money to tell me later they could not help me. Ms. Manganaro was very honest and up front with me about my case and where I stood. She maintained contact with me to make sure I understood what was going on and was comfortable with the proceedings. She made me feel comfortable about where my money was going throughout the process regardless of the outcome. I felt like she genuinely cared about my case. By the way, Samantha Nicole Manganaro delivered a win where others said it could not be done! She will definitely be my first call should the need ever arise, and the first name I give out should anyone ever ask. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You have been a blessing and a godsend to my family and I!

Forever grateful!”
-Meghan M.

FIVE STARS

“Highly recommended! Ms. Manganaro is skilled with other types of law, not just personal injury. She has been my attorney for a small claims dispute, and I’ve been highly satisfied with her work and professionalism.”

-Kirsten N.

HARDEST WORKING LAWYER (PERSONAL INJURY)

“My review is nothing compared to the commitment, hard work and professionalism that Mrs. Manganaro did for my case. I am a single mother and was on my way home from working a 9-hour shift when an 18-wheeler totaled my car and this was the last thing I needed. But with the help of Mrs. Manganaro I was able to focus on work and life while she took care of the insurance companies, doctors and other logistics. At the end of it all I feel 100% that I picked the right lawyer for my case. I will always recommend her and continue to talk about her great services. I can’t say it enough, but thank you!”
Jillian V.

FIXED MY CONTRACTS!

“After years of writing and refining my own contracts, Samantha took one look and made it far more protective. I am now confident that what I am sending holds my clients accountable to my terms.”

-Christopher S.

A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE

“I am embarking on a new career and needed legal advice on what I must to do become a for profit company. Samantha made this so clear for me! She created a check list of things to do, included the hyperlinks for the appropriate avenues, and verbally went over it with me step by step. I feel prepared to begin and I am so grateful for such a thorough and pleasant experience! Samantha is very personable and an excellent listener; she was with me every step of the way. She was also very patient with my questions and was extremely easy to work with. Samantha has so much knowledge that I never would have understood if not for her grounded and clear explanations to all of my inquiries. I could tell that she has my best interest at heart and I know from this experience that I will be contacting her in the future for any of my legal needs.”

-Courtney Luck

GENUINENESS, RELIABILITY, ABSOLUTE PROFESSIONALISM

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Samantha Manganaro in my capacity as Art Law Clinic Director for Maryland Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts, as she has volunteered for our organization on many occasions. Samantha has volunteered in our clinic as one of our volunteer attorneys and she is always eager and ready to participate. Samantha has also worked with some of our clients through our referral process.Our clinics are from 1pm – 4pm on Saturdays and clients come for 30-minute consultations. This means that on a busy day, Samantha could see a maximum of 6 clients. She has successfully consulted our arts clients on non-profit formation, business development, contracts, and some IP related matters. Observing her consultations, I noticed Samantha’s genuineness and reliability, while maintaining absolute professionalism. Her knowledge of the law is evident, as our clients have consistently given her a rating of 8 or above (out of 10) in our exit surveys and choose “yes” when asked if their legal issues were resolved.

One seeking legal assistance would feel confident that Samantha would handle their legal needs with care and effectiveness.”

-Nicholas Hawkins

QUICK ON HER FEET

“I endorse this lawyer. She produces extraordinary results in a County where it is known to be very difficult to get a decent. She surpassed this along with her partner. He is a very quick learner and quick on her feet when trouble arises. This lawyer is someone to watch for now and especially in the near future.

-Imad Soubra, Esq.
