Amazing All Around!

She is a absolute powerhouse, incredible in the court room! When it comes to family court which is where my case lies, I would never recommend anyone else but Amanda right here! It was a tough case I know my ex was good at lying so I was scared going into the process right away with that fact, there ...were so many unknowns but as soon as I had my consult I immediately felt at ease and knew she was the lawyer for my case. She is so helpful And knows her stuff, it didn’t matter how many questions we had she had answers whenever we needed them and at whatever time in the divorce process. She was also very emotionally supportive and invested which made the process so much easier even at times that were so hard I wanted to rip my hair out with the back and forth with my ex. It was a great feeling to know and feel like I was 100 percent supported in this way and like she had my back no matter what, i felt it beyond more than just the fact I was one of many clients. She helped win the case and even at times I felt like nothing was going right she would put me at ease and made whatever I wanted to happen possible, with that being said she never just told me what I wanted to hear she was very straight forward and knowledgeable to where I always felt better after I would talk to her that things would be ok, and they always were. There really isn’t enough that could be said about these Amanda, I would highly recommend her to anyone out there. She helped me in so many ways through this process and were so professional, knowledgeable, friendly and caring with my daughters best interest at heart which was just hands down amazing!

Employment Issue

I was "laid off" from a position I held for 36 years after a new chairperson had been appointed. I believe the cultural differences were a major factor in my dismissal as well as financial considerations to replace me with a younger, inexperienced and lower salaried individual. Amanda and her assoc...iates were very responsive, friendly yet professional, and excellent in every aspect in handling my case.
