Amanda is a very passionate advocate. She brings a unique vantage point to her practice, combining a background in mediation, negotiation, family law, and finance.
Amanda was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. She graduated from Penn State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and received a Juris Doctor from Rutgers Law School-Newark. While a law student, Amanda completed a conflict management concentration focusing on negotiation, mediation, alternative dispute resolution and arbitration.
Amanda completed a Federal Judicial Externship with Honorable Ronald J. Hedges and was a Mediator for the Division of Consumer Affairs. She spent two years as an associate for a wall street bank, Goldman Sachs, managing International Swaps and Derivatives Association Agreements. Amanda completed 63 continuing education credits through Goldman Sachs University, including corporate negotiation.
After going through the divorce process herself 15 years ago, she knew that this is what she wanted to do for the rest of her life.....help people start their lives over. Amanda left the corporate world in June of 2006, began her family law career. In November of 2007, Amanda opened the doors to the Law Office of Amanda Mays in Princeton, New Jersey. The firm was dedicated to 100% Family Law.
In early 2011, Amanda moved to Arizona to open Mays & Zitron, PLLC with her younger brother, Jordan Zitron. Amanda and Jordan practice 100% Family Law serving the East Valley. They offer a free telephone consultation and an additional free hour appointment once retained.
