About Amanda L.
Amanda L. Sims graduated from the University of Kentucky in 2006 with a Bachelor of Business Administration and earned her J.D. from Capital University Law School in 2009. She is admitted to practice in Ohio and has built a legal practice grounded in those academic years. The combination of a business undergraduate degree and a law degree shapes how she approaches legal problems. It gives her perspective on both transactional and regulatory issues.
Her legal career began after law school, and she now practices at Kemp, Schaeffer & Rowe Co., LPA. At the firm she represents clients in matters that arise under Ohio law. She handles client work, participates in case preparation and appears where necessary in court proceedings. Colleagues note she manages the ordinary demands of law practice while navigating the procedural and substantive steps each matter requires.
Sims maintains memberships in several professional organizations. She belongs to the Ohio State Bar Association and the Columbus Bar Association. She is also a member of the Ohio Women's Bar Association and the American Bar Association. Those affiliations provide access to continuing education and professional resources, and they connect her to peers across practice areas and regions.
Her undergraduate training in business informs her legal work. That background helps when legal questions intersect with financial or organizational concerns. Her law school training provided the doctrinal foundation and the practical tools needed for practice. She has applied those skills to the varied tasks that come through a mid-sized Ohio law firm: counseling clients, drafting documents, and preparing litigation materials.
Colleagues describe her style as detailed and methodical. She tends to break complex matters into discrete steps, and she prioritizes clear communication with clients about options and timing. She balances litigation tasks with transactional work when client needs require both.
Outside of firm duties, she engages in the professional community through local and national bar organizations. Those ties keep her connected to developments in law and practice. She continues to practice law at Kemp, Schaeffer & Rowe Co., LPA, representing clients and providing counsel in matters arising under Ohio law.
