    Lateral Match

    Why talk to Amanda Finley, Esq.?

    Chris Boyett joined Akerman LLP's Miami office in the Litigation group.

    I am so grateful I had Amanda as my recruiter. She coached and guided me through a lengthy interview season with many top law firms and was helpful, thoughtful, and knowledgeable for the entirety of the process. She was always available for advice and help (night and day!), and was pivotal in navigating through a big transition. Her knowledge of the legal landscape and the process at large was impressive, and I hope that for any lateral move, associates can find someone as wonderful and helpful as Amanda!
