Amanda Newberg

I am an associate attorney in the litigation and probate administration departments at Chepenik Trushin LLP. I was born and raised in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, and graduated summa cum laude from the George Washington University with degrees in History and Political Science, along with a minor in Sustainability. I later earned my law degree cum laude from the University of Miami School of Law in 2025. While in law school, I interned with the Environmental Justice Clinic, where I contributed to a class action lawsuit advocating for residents affected by toxic emissions from a municipal incinerator. I was also an active member of the Trial Team, competing in trial competitions, and participated in the Environmental Law Society, Fashion Law Society, and Cardozo Society. Additionally, I was honored to receive the Richard L. Lapidus Endowed Memorial Scholarship for my performance in Litigation Skills. During my first summer in law school, I interned at the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office in the Sexual Battery and Child Abuse unit, where I gained valuable trial experience. The following summer, I clerked at Chepenik Trushin LLP and later joined the firm as an associate attorney after being admitted to the Florida Bar in September 2025.
