About Amanda
Biography
I love what I do.... Not all divorces and child custody cases need to be handled in a way as to create even more distance between the parties. Sometimes, when a client hires a lawyer he or she thinks everything is going to become more hostile. On the contrary, when you hire me, or one of our experienced attorneys in my firm, you will see that learing your rights and defending your interest in court does not equal more animosity between the parties. These are life changing events that do have to cost an arm and a leg or create more negativity in your life. We are aggressive when the situation requires it but we also understand that not all parties are hostile towards each other. In those cases, you won't find unnessary litigation that some firms use to run up a legal bill. After all, this is your life and we want to be here for you when you need us, for you and your family, for as long as you need. This is probably why we have a large number of personal referrals from former clients.

Amanda has since married and is now practicing as Amanda Dorado. I would suggest looking elsewhere unless you only have the most basic legal issue. I would characterize my experience as lackluster. I had to do do the negotiation and footwork myself and hire another attorney to have my legal questions...
