    Why talk to Amanda Finley, Esq.?

    Sally Alghazali joined Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP's District of Columbia office in the International Trade group.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience working with Amanda Finley. From the very beginning, she was incredibly professional, warm, and patient, guiding me through every step of the process with clarity and confidence. She took the time to truly understand what I was looking for in my next role and helped me land what I can genuinely say is my dream job. Her insight into the legal market was invaluable, and she was always available to answer my (many!) question, and never once making me feel rushed or uncertain. She provided thoughtful advice, honest feedback, and steady support, which made the entire experience smooth and far less stressful than I anticipated. I'm beyond grateful for her expertise and encouragement. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any attorney looking to make a move. She's truly exceptional at what she does. Thank you, Amanda!!
