He was admitted to the Massachusetts State Court in 1994; United States District Court, Massachusetts in 1995. He is a member of the Boston, Barnstable and Massachusetts Bar Associations, as well as a member of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.

Mr. Manoog is a faculty member of the Massachusetts Bar Association's course on teaching attorneys how to handle, try and negotiate automobile accident cases.
