Amanda Cook - Pittsburgh

Amanda's knowledge of the legal process and sensitivity to my needs is commendable. Amanda's willingness to go the extra mile for me and my family keeps me recommending her to people that have approached me with the "who did you use for that" question. Amanda never stops impressing me. With her, I... not only gained an excellent attorney, but also a friend. Someone I feel comfortable talking freely with. That was important to me. I don't feel I can thank her enough, so I felt compelled to write a review. She showed compassion for my situation - understanding the stress the legal process can bring. She has the uncanny ability to listen first, putting her clients at ease. I continue to highly recommend Amanda to my friends and family. Without a doubt, she's earned that from me.

Posted by Matthew. | August 27, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

A honest and sincere attorney.

I retained Amanda after using a previous attorney for a portion of my divorce. Amanda was extremely knowledge in every aspect of my case and what I respected most was the time she took and the questions she asked me. I would highly recommend Amanda for anyone who has had a poor experience with a pr...evious attorney or who is skeptical of attorneys in general. Her entire firm was a great help in helping me with one of the most difficult times in my life.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
