About Amanda
Biography
I help caring parents spare their children the pain of divorce through divorce mediation. No one wins in a divorce, but you can minimize the impact on your children, your self, and your pocket book. I have designed a divorce mediation program that allows you to settle your entire divorce case out of court. The mediation program is quick. We reach complete settlements in a matter of a few months. The divorce mediation program is affordable. The cost of mediation is about half of the intiial retainers for two attorneys. Divorce mediation is private and focuses on preparing you for your new single life making divorce mediation much less stressful than the court house alternative.

Amanda Marie Jarratt's Lawyer Endorsements
"I had the pleasure of getting to know Amanda when we were opposing counsel on a matter several years ago. Throughout the case she was professional, courteous and responsive. Her cooperative and respectful approach is an asset to her clients, and I would not hesitate to recommend her."
"Although we've never met in person, Amanda and I have worked together to put together two prenuptial agreements and she has been a pleasure to work with. Always cooperative, always friendly, responds swiftly via phone and email. Overall, a welcome addition to the Bay Area legal community. I enjoy working with Amanda and recommend her to other attorneys and potential clients without hesitation. It's good to find an opposing counsel who is reasonable and responsive. Makes it much easier to get things done for my clients and, I'm sure, for hers."
"Amanda is a compassionate attorney who works hard for her client. She provides a holistic approach to handling cases which provides great value to her client. I highly recommend her."

Sample of Legal Cases
In Re Marriage of Doe
Verdict was favorable to my client. As required by the bar, I must say that this result is not typical and is not a guarantee of outcome in your case.
