Amanda N. Odorimah

Of Counsel (Estate Planning)

For many families, planning for the future or navigating the loss of a loved one can feel overwhelming. Attorney Amanda Odorimah guides individuals and families through these pivotal moments with clarity, compassion, and practical solutions. As a Maryland estate planning and probate attorney, she devotes herself to helping clients protect what they have worked hard for, provide for the people they love, and gain peace of mind.

Amanda began practicing law in Maryland in 2018 and quickly recognized that estate planning and probate are not just legal processes-they are deeply personal experiences that require patience, empathy, and a steady hand. Over the years, she has advised middle-class professionals, retirees, blended families, and business owners, each with unique concerns about wills, trusts, powers of attorney, advance directives, guardianship, and probate administration.
Whether you are preparing documents to safeguard your family's future or serving as a personal representative faced with court requirements, Amanda strives to make the process manageable and understandable every step of the way.

Amanda's approach is rooted in education and accessibility. She believes that every client deserves to understand not only the "what" of their plan but the "why" behind it. She takes the time to listen, answer questions in plain language, and create a plan that reflects each client's goals and values. In probate cases, Amanda is hands-on and detail-oriented, guiding clients through inventories, accountings, disputes among heirs, and the fiduciary responsibilities of personal representatives. Her goal is always to reduce stress and conflict while ensuring that the estate is handled efficiently and in compliance with Maryland law.

Clients describe Amanda as approachable, thorough, and an attorney who genuinely cares about their well-being. She knows how important it is to feel comfortable with your attorney, especially when discussing sensitive topics like incapacity, loss, or family disagreements. Amanda's work is not only about legal documents and court filings-it is about protecting families, preserving legacies, and providing reassurance in life's most uncertain times.

Outside of the courtroom and conference room, Amanda is deeply committed to community service and education. She frequently shares knowledge through workshops, presentations, and written resources designed to empower people to make informed decisions before a crisis arises.

If you are looking for an attorney who combines legal skill with compassion, clarity, and a real commitment to client service, Amanda would be honored to work with you. Whether you are planning ahead or facing the challenges of probate, she will stand by your side, making sure you feel supported and confident in every decision.
