Amanda Simantov

Associate Attorney

Background

Before becoming an attorney, Amanda spent a lot of time negotiating corporate sponsorship deals (read worked with A LOT of lawyers). It was this experience that drove her back to school to study law, determined to be the kind of attorney that people enjoy working with. Amanda puts herself in her clients shoes and skips the legalese to make communication with clients more digestible in order to foster more collaborative relationships.

Amanda works on a number of intellectual property and business formation/oversight matters. Prior to joining HMLG, she spent 15 years working in the non-profit sector as a professional fundraiser, working with a number of different causes including healthcare, child welfare, conservation, and the arts. Outside of her work, Amanda is a member and volunteer with the Junior League of Seattle.
