Excellent Attorney
We used Amanda for my deceased father's probate and estate process in FL. From conversation #1 through the completion of the process, Amanda was kind, helpful, more than knowledgeable and attentive. It was very important for me to find someone like Amanda while going through this difficult process. I highly recommend her.

Excellent on all levels!
We worked with Amanda to update our estate documents that were in serious need of rework. What was really great is that everything was explained to us as if it was our first time establishing a will, etc. Amanda has a very clear and efficient process that she follows to ensure we were making all decisions of sound understanding and judgement. She is welcoming, understanding, patient and thorough, especially around this estate subject that can be very sensitive.

Highly Recommend
I was referred to Amanda by an attorney in my home state. She was kind enough to make time for a consultation over the phone. Amanda was very knowledgable and explained in detail all of the information regarding probate. She literally left me with no questions. From speaking with her I could tell that she does this work because she has a desire to help people. I would have loved to work with her had we decided to go forward with probate.

Probate will and Court
First time ever I had to use attorney in my life with very difficult case as well as timing. I've worked with her for more than 6 month so far... her work was so clear, direct and honest. Always responds so quickly with any questions or concerns. I cannot thank her enough for all the work she did for my family.

Terrific estate planning attorney
Amanda Singleton made estate planning as comfortable of an experience as possible. She helped me create a plan that will make dissolution of my estate as easy as possible for my beneficiaries. Her fees were reasonable.

Thorough, thoughtful, meticulous
We were extremely pleased to work with Amanda Singleton to update our wills, healthcare surrogates, and living wills. She listened carefully, offered helpful perspectives about changes in the law, was thoughtful in responding to our questions, and was meticulous about every detail. We recommend her highly and look forward to working with her again should need arise.

Wonderful experience
Amanda assisted me in revising my will and updating my personal information. She was most professional in her understanding of my needs. On a personal note, she is kind, caring and listened to my questions. She never rushed me or made light of what I had to say. I think she is a truly compassionate person.

It couldn't have been any easier!
We were referred to Amanda by a friend and could not have been any happier with her service. We were only gong to be in town for a short amount time, so she fit us into her schedule quickly. In our first meeting she explained her process thoroughly. Once we hired her, she completed the documents quickly and was available to answer questions and responded in a timely manner. She is knowledgeable about her area of expertise and a delight to work work with. I would strongly recommend her.

Compassionate Professional Legal Advice
Ms. Singleton was very helpful - she really listened and provided important legal advice and contacts to guide me in managing a crisis with a very needy, in-distress relative. She provided information on long-term scenarios too. I felt very comfortable discussing these matters with Ms. Singleton. I plan on using more of her services in the future - estate, trusts etc.

Excellent Estate Planning Experience
We worked with Amanda for our estate planning. She was inquisitive of our desires so they were accurately noted in our wills and advanced directives. She was very thorough in her explanations of the paperwork and made sure all of our questions were answered prior to our signing. Every meeting with her was well organized and efficient. We felt extremely comfortable talking with Amanda about our private matters and felt she always made time to speak and meet with us. From beginning to end, the process of working with Amanda was professional and enjoyable. We highly recommend her services.

The best!!
Amanda is not your average attorney, she was extremely personable and professional. She was so informative, patient & caring, with us (we had a million questions) we were so happy we found her! We recently had a daughter and suddenly felt an urgency to get our wills, gaurdianship, estate paperwork together to ensure our daughter would be taken care of in case anything happened to us. Doing all of this tends to be daunting and somewhat overwhelming because picking an attorney can be overwheming since many attorneys tend to be very arrogant and intimidating. Amanda was so amazing, she made the entire process so easy and seamless, making us wonder why we didn't do it sooner. She was a great listener and instructed and guided us through the process so quickly but with careful attention to our wishes and needs and did it professionally, she was amazing!

Knowledgeable, competent and caring
It is rare these days to find an Attorney who is beyond competent in their knowledge and their work product. Amanda is both and then some. Add this to her true care and concern for her clients and this makes her a cut above the others and an absolute must pick! I consider myself truly blessed to have found Amanda and she will be my attorney for all things estate related for the remainder of my life.

Excellent and Compassionate Attorney
There are many people that are good at their respective profession, but Amanda is outstanding. She is passionate as well as compassionate, but most of all she really knows her specialty in preparing will, living wills and health care surrogate forms. She quickly guided me through her very thorough process and was timely in the preparation as well as thoughtful with her questions art hey would relate to my situation. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to prepare a will. The beauty of her work also is that she considers that life will change and she takes the proper steps to ensure that your documents can be easily adjusted and adapted to the changes that may happen in the future. Excellent attorney and warm wonderful person
