My experience with Amanda Kimble could not have been more positive. I retained her two years into divorce proceedings in which there were come complicated custody issues. Her ability to assimilate information quickly is extraordinary. She is no nonsense and precise and clearly articulated strategy and potential outcomes . She was exceptional in a courtroom situation and extremely well prepared- there were not surprises which had not been my experience prior to her representation. She is not one to waste time or money. I would highly recommend her
I was honestly thinking long before writing this review how out of all the professionals I have worked with in my fifty-seven years . . . all the doctors, lawyers, accountants . . . that my experience Amanda Kimball was probably the most positive I have ever had.
I found her when my spouse, who is himself an attorney, went out and hired not one but two sets of lawyers. I realized I needed representation.
Amanda Kimball was MY advocate. All through the process she was on MY side. That feeling is amazing. All the stuff you have to go through in divorcing she explained clearly and patiently (and never condescendingly). My spouse and I are lgbtq which brought up a whole set of legal issues. She was 100% confident and knowledgeable, and never wavered.
She let me have my time in the process while gently keeping things moving along. Her “desk side” manner whenever we met set the perfect tone of lightness and heaviness. It made what could have been a much worse process actually not so bad. From the start to the finish, I felt taken care of, and I am so grateful Amanda represented me.
In the end, my spouse, apparently socked with huge bills from his own attorney, asked us to file the papers and finish up. The way Amanda did it (actually showing up in court) was so professional and competent that I think I may have gone up a little in my ex’s estimation for having hired a better attorney than his! Six stars for sure.
