Amanda’s Reviews
- I felt as confident as I reasonably could through the whole process. We were taking on a relative adoption between caregivers in 3 different states. The day we meet her, Amanda had just attended an in-service with the woman who WROTE the book on TN adoption law. Do you know what a relief that was? Amanda was very organized, attentive, warm, and transparent throughout that 1.5 years. She did a great job of educating me while keeping my expectations grounded. We won complete custody.read moreread less
Beth7/21/2026I cannot say enough good things about Amanda Crowell, Kailyn Weiss, and the entire team at their firm. The level of care, dedication, and commitment they put into my case was unlike anything I have ever experienced.From the very beginning, their team treated my case with incredible attention and professionalism. They were always responsive, communicative, and made sure I understood every step of the process. Going through a legal matter can be extremely stressful, but having a team that truly cares makes all the difference.I especially want to recognize Amanda Crowell and Kailyn Weiss. Their dedication, preparation, and advocacy were absolutely outstanding. They fought hard for me and consistently demonstrated not only their expertise but also genuine compassion for my situation. It was clear they truly cared about the outcome and about doing what was right.The entire staff at the firm deserves recognition as well. Everyone I interacted with was professional, organized, and supportive throughout the process.I am incredibly grateful for everything they did for my family and me.

Amanda Crowell of Kane and Crowell is a very knowledgeable and professional attorney. She has been wonderful at helping protect my family and attending to all our legal needs. Thanks Mrs. Crowell and the entire staff of Kane and Crowell for all that you have done.read moreread less Kimberly12/02/2022Very Straight Forward
Perhaps the thing that impressed me most about Mrs. Crowell was nothing was "sugar coated". She was very straight forward and told me what to expect each step of the way. Going thru the separation and divorce from start to finish, Mrs. Crowell kept me informed of each step, even when it wasn't what I wanted to hear. It was good for her to be straight forward, and what the options were and what the risks were. There were no empty promises made just to keep me, the client, to make me happy; which I know sometimes occurs when seeking counsel. Since this was the first time going through a divorce I had many questions. She always answered the questions or someone else at the office did, this was a long process and will cost money, but I was able to maintain custody of my four younger children, and I owe that to circumstances and great representation. Thank you Amanda Crowell for everything.read moreread less April10/06/2022
