Highly Recommended

Amanda Whitten and her team did a great job and got the result I wanted. She proved knowledgeable, professional, reliable, caring and responsive. Best of all, Amanda was a determined ally who skillfully navigated difficult waters. She fought hard for my case and did everything possible to make sure t...hings culminated in a positive way. I couldn’t say enough good things about her. She got the job done. Thank you, Amanda!

The best around.

I have the highest of praise for Amanda Whitten. She is extremely knowledgable and helped me every step of the way. I visited her with an employment issue and she guided me as to how to handle it on my own before she had to get involved. Happy to say, her advice was extremely helpful and I saw posi...tive results. She comes very highly recommended.

Feel confident you are getting the best.

Amanda was realistic yet compassionate with her advise. The outcome was more than expected.

Posted by Cary | May 17, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

Amanda was terrific all the way, from start to finish.

I felt I was wrongfully terminated. I wasn't sure what I needed to do. Ms. Whitten listened, talked, explained, and heard what I had to say. She was excellent & proactive from start to finish, and I am sure I would not have faired so well with another outfit. Thank you Amanda.

Amanda did a great job for me and won my case.

I was very happy with Amanda and her staff. She did a fantastic job representing me. She took her time to listen to what I had to say and truly cared about me not just as a client but as a person. Aside from her people skills she is a great lawyer and was on the ball the whole time. She won my ca...se and I was very pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend her.

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.
