About Our Firm
Counsel you can trust, from a neighbor who genuinely cares
The Law Office of Amanda Scott PLLC is a new Western New York estate planning and elder law firm — built on personal attention, plain-English advice, and genuine care.
Our Story
Built on a simple promise
The Law Office of Amanda Scott PLLC was founded by attorney Amanda J. Scott — who has focused on elder law and estate planning since 2009 — on a belief that good estate planning shouldn't feel cold or complicated. Too many families are handed a stack of documents without ever being truly listened to. Amanda set out to do it differently.
The Law Office of Amanda Scott is a dedicated estate and elder law practice — and that focus matters. Estate planning, Medicaid asset protection, and probate aren't a sideline here; they're all we do. That depth helps us spot opportunities and avoid pitfalls a general practitioner might miss.
Most of all, you'll be treated the way Amanda would want her own family treated: with honesty, patience, and real care. That's the difference — and the standard she holds herself to with every client.
