Since 2013, our practice has helped couples resolve divorce and family law matters through thoughtful legal guidance and effective mediation. As experienced divorce attorneys and trained mediators in New York State, we believe most families benefit from a less adversarial approach. We work to minimize emotional and financial strain while empowering clients to make informed, confident decisions about their future.
When Amanda “retired” from the practice of family/divorce litigation and joined the team at Talk Mediation Centers, her goal was to help families going through a divorce in a peaceful, collaborative setting. Her work to resolve custody and equitable distribution conflicts, while also providing answers to clients’ questions, has helped dozens of couples work together to form a fair and reasonable agreement.
Amanda was admitted to the New York State Bar in 2008, after graduating from the University of Buffalo School of Law. She practiced in the 4th Department Appellate Division as a child’s attorney and an attorney for the parties individually in both matrimonial and family law.
Her experience in the courtroom influenced her strong belief that the judicial system is not tailored to resolving issues facing broken families but rather, unnecessarily contributes to the tension between the parties and the resulting stress for the children. Amanda was certified as a mediator under NYCID in early 2017 and joined Talk Mediation Centers shortly thereafter.
In 2021, Amanda became the owner and principal attorney-mediator for Talk Mediation Centers, where she carries on the tradition of resolving all issues involved in separation and divorce amicably, efficiently, and as stress-free as possible.
We are proud to serve Niagara, Erie, Orleans, Yates, Genesee, Monroe, Ontario, Wayne, and Seneca counties.
