Attorney Information
Overview
Attorney Andrew John Manie was born in Queens, New York, to a family with roots in Trinidad and Tobago. Raised in the Virgin Islands and later settling in North Lauderdale, Florida, Mr. Manie’s diverse upbringing has provided him with a unique perspective on life and the law. He graduated from Boyd Anderson High School, and soon after, he answered the call to serve his country.
The day after his 18th birthday, Mr. Manie enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, where he served as a communications repairman with an infantry battalion. His military service included a deployment to Iraq, where he supported Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. His time in the military instilled in him the values of discipline, resilience, and a commitment to duty—qualities that continue to define his legal career.
While serving in the Marine Corps, Mr. Manie pursued higher education and earned a degree in Political Science from American Military University. After being honorably discharged in 2011, he continued his academic journey at Barry University School of Law, graduating in 2014. He was admitted to the Florida Bar in 2015 and has since dedicated his practice to providing legal counsel with a client-centered approach.
Mr. Manie’s legal experience spans various areas of law, including contract disputes, personal bankruptcy, and business law. Over the years, he has worked with several firms across Central Florida and ran his own successful practice from 2017 to 2022. In addition to his law practice, Mr. Manie also served as the lead trainer for Integreon Managed Solutions, overseeing the training of contract analysts for their Nike account.
With his extensive experience, Mr. Manie brings a wealth of legal knowledge and a passion for solving complex legal challenges. Whether negotiating contracts or helping clients navigate personal bankruptcy, he approaches each case with the same commitment and dedication that he applied during his military service.
Outside of his professional life, Mr. Manie is a devoted father who enjoys spending time on the water with his two children, kayaking and fishing. An avid sports fan, he also enjoys catching a game whenever he can.
Attorney Andrew John Manie understands that legal matters can be stressful and overwhelming. His mission is to provide clients with the same clarity, guidance, and support he relied on during his military service—helping them confidently navigate the legal landscape and achieve the best possible outcomes.
