About Amanda Leigh
Amanda Leigh Giannone earned her J.D. from Syracuse University College of Law in 2011. Her legal education took place in upstate New York, where she completed the coursework and training that prepared her for practice in the state courts. The year of graduation places her among a generation of lawyers who entered practice in a period of evolving courtroom technology and shifting substantive law.
She is admitted to practice in New York and is an attorney at Levene Gouldin & Thompson, LLP. At the firm she is part of a team that serves clients across the state. Her professional path has involved courtroom appearances, client counseling and the drafting of pleadings and agreements. Colleagues describe her work as steady and detail-oriented, and she has handled matters that required both written advocacy and oral argument.
Her practice centers on matters governed by New York law. That offers a wide range of possible issues and procedural questions. She works on cases that require careful attention to state statute and precedent, and she manages the practical demands of litigation and transactional work alike. Clients who engage counsel in state matters often value clarity and predictability; Giannone’s approach emphasizes clear explanations and methodical preparation.
In day-to-day practice she navigates court schedules, discovery, negotiation and the drafting tasks that keep cases moving. She also deals with the procedural requirements specific to New York’s courts, from local rules to filing procedures. Those administrative elements shape how a matter progresses and often determine the pace of resolution. She pairs legal research with practical timelines so clients understand both options and likely next steps.
Outside of individual matters, she participates in the institutional life of her firm and the local bar. That involvement helps her stay current on changes in practice and procedure. Over time she has developed a reserve of institutional knowledge about filings, motion practice and courtroom logistics that benefits clients and colleagues alike.
She practices at Levene Gouldin & Thompson, LLP in New York and maintains an active practice handling matters in New York state courts.
