About Andrew
Andrew Magdy took a steady, conventional path into law. He read history as an undergraduate at Southern Illinois University — Carbondale, graduating in 2000. He earned his J.D. from Michigan State University in 2006, followed by an LL.M. in Taxation from Washington University in St. Louis in 2007. Those credentials frame much of the work he has done since.
Early in his career he served as a law clerk at the Michigan Tax Tribunal in 2006. That position was followed by a stint at Affinity Law Group in 2008, again as a law clerk. In 2009 he moved into practice as an associate at A & L, Licker Law Office. By 2011 he was managing lawyer at Jacoby & Meyers Bankruptcy, LLP, handling the daily demands of a bankruptcy practice and supervising case flow.
Two separate managing partner roles followed in 2013. He was listed as a managing partner at Skelton & Magdy, LLC, and he also established the Law Office of Andrew Magdy that same year. Those posts reflect a shift from working within larger, established firms to running his own operations and shaping the services offered. The record shows a mix of practice management and continuous client work rather than a single, narrow career track.
Education and early tribunal experience point toward tax and bankruptcy work. The LL.M. in Taxation is a clear academic indicator, while the managing lawyer role at a bankruptcy firm is an operational one. Together they suggest that his practice addresses both the tax consequences of financial distress and the mechanics of bankruptcy filings. He is licensed in Missouri and maintains membership in DAMSL.
Colleagues and clients see a lawyer who moved quickly from support roles into leadership. He has taken on administrative responsibilities, supervised other lawyers, and handled litigation and filings that arise in insolvency and tax matters. Those tasks require attention to procedural detail and deadlines, areas where his record shows sustained involvement.
Today he practices out of The Law Office of Andrew Magdy. He handles matters that draw on his tax training and his bankruptcy practice experience. His current practice concentrates on tax and bankruptcy matters.
