Amanda N. Murphy is a partner at Goldblatt + Singer in St. Louis, Missouri. Amanda practices personal injury law, passionately serving clients throughout Missouri and Illinois who have been injured or killed in motor vehicle crashes, motorcycle wrecks, and commercial vehicle crashes (involving trucks, 18-wheelers, dump trucks, semis, etc). She is also experienced in handling other types of negligence cases, including premises liability, product liability and workers’ compensation.
A native of the St. Louis region, she graduated from the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri, and earned her law degree from the University of Missouri School of Law. She has been licensed to practice law in all Missouri state courts since 2007, and is also admitted to practice in Illinois and before the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, Western District of Missouri, and Southern District of Illinois.
Before joining Goldblatt Singer, she gained valuable legal experience in the area of personal injury litigation by clerking for a private Missouri-based personal injury firm. A strong advocate for her clients, she has attained verdicts and settlements totaling multiple millions of dollars over the course of her career.
In addition to her personal injury law practice, she enjoys being an active member of her legal community. She does this through membership in various professional legal organizations such as the American Association for Justice. She is also a member of the Missouri Association of Trial Attorneys and was elected to the organization’s board of governors in 2016.
