Amanda Thornton was recommended to us and she absolutely lived up to the raving recommendation that we received. Amanda is AMAZING! She was so thorough and so helpful during our adoption process. She explained all the steps along the way and assisted us with gathering some of the documents that we needed. She made the entire process seem seamless. And what a joyful day in court!!!! We officially have a daughter! I would recommend her to anyone with family law issues.

I am an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Tennessee and when I needed a divorce lawyer I hired Amanda Thornton. I have known Amanda for years and have worked numerous cases with her. She has always been a zealous advocate for her clients and an overall excellent attorney. This process is something I never expected to happen or wanted to happen. I am extremely grateful to Amanda and her staff for taking the time to listen to me complain and to Amanda for advice when I needed it. If you find yourself going through a divorce, custody dispute, or anything else family law related you will not find a better attorney in Nashville.

While Amanda portrays herself as a fighter, the process felt chaotic and overly aggressive. Instead of focusing on the facts, it seemed like she was more interested in making a public spectacle, which didn’t sit well with us. Her confrontational style made the situation more stressful than it needed to be, and while the outcome was favorable, the approach left a bad taste in my mouth. We didn’t feel genuinely cared for and wouldn't recommend her based on our experience.

Ms. Thornton recently represented my husband in a custody case and this is after she had represented him during his first divorce many years back. We can't say enough good things about Ms. Thornton. She does a great job of hearing from her clients on their desired outcomes. She will give you her thoughts based on her many years of experience and will shoot it to you straight which we really appreciated. She will absolutely fight and advocate for her clients. And everyone in her office was lovely to work with! If you are in need of an attorney, she would be our first recommendation!
