Friendly and Professional

It was a pleasure working with Amanda Ebey on our Estate Plan- Trust and Wills. As a young family it was our first experience with these documents and Amanda was great at explaining the details and options and also patient with us as we gathered documents and made decisions. We would absolutely recom...mend her to others.

Queen of Probate

My experience has been wonderful. It was an out of town probate for a brother-in-law who had been dead for 25 years. He owned a piece of land (2 parcels) with my recently deceased husband. My husband was supposed to do the probate; he never did it. So when my husband died it became my duty to do th...is probate. Oh, my husband was an attorney as were 3 of his brothers! I hired Amanda on a recommendation from a paralegal I have known for years. I had originally hired someone else who did nothing and eventually gave me my money back. Amanda was prompt gave good advice, checked facts. She knew what she was doing and did it. Success!

Excellent resource

For the real estate legal service that I was seeking, Amanda was unable to help me. But she was able to give me an excellent referral to an attorney, who could assist with my legal issues. Thanks Amanda

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
