Amanda Shuman did a fantastic job of representing me in my mediated divorce! Although we had a mediator, I was at a complete disadvantage because my ex is an attorney and had employed an aggressive attorney on his behalf. Not only did Amanda work hard to fight for my best interests and get a best-case-scenario result, she was also strategically smart about it. Instead of fighting to have language that my ex's attorney wanted to put into the agreement removed, which would have led to costly back-and-forth battles with little result, Amanda cleverly countered any unfavorable language by changing it to be favorable (or at least harmless) to me. This was a highly effective strategy and I strongly believe that I got the best outcome I could have ever expected. I knew from the minute I met Amanda that she had my back and was in my corner, and I was not disappointed! I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone unfortunate enough to be going through a divorce. If she could achieve such a favorable outcome in my difficult situation, she could do an amazing job for anyone!
