Had a horrible racial and harassing encounter with lawyer Joseph M. Manicki. He got very angry and upset from me simply not replying to him within 48 hours regarding babysitting his children and then proceeded to harass me, racially profile me, and degrade me online both through text and via the Nextdoor app on numerous occasions. His atrocious privileged behavior is unacceptable.
He threatened me to take me to court with his legal authority, used his title and privilege as a lawyer to scare me and tried to play the victim card for me not wanting to watch/care for his children and proceeded to contact me over and over again and attack me online.
Super rude, trust the other poor google reviews.

Claim Raven does not charge you. Your request goes directly to the representative. Claim Raven verifies only VA accreditation.
Claim Raven is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. We do not recommend or endorse any attorney or claims agent. Listings come from VA's public accreditation records. Paid placements are advertising. Check an attorney's accreditation on VA's accreditation search before you hire them.
VA accreditation allows a person to represent claimants before VA. It is not a recommendation. Attorneys are lawyers; claims agents are accredited non-attorneys. A VSO can provide free claims help. Confirm current accreditation in VA's official search.
