Overview
Amanda Fernandez is a barrister based in 3PB’s London office.
Amanda’s practice primarily spans housing, property, commercial and personal injury litigation. This builds on her experience as a County Court Advocate prior to pupillage, where she represented clients in consumer credit, debt recovery and enforcement disputes. She also worked as a banking and finance litigation paralegal in an international law firm, where she drafted legal letters and statements of case in claims of breach of contract and misrepresentation issued for and against a major international bank. In addition, she provided pro-bono non-contentious corporate legal advice to business start-ups on matters such as company structure, company registration and shareholdings.
Prior to joining 3PB, Amanda worked on the statutory public inquiry into infected blood (the Infected Blood Inquiry), where she worked primarily on disclosure and drafted requests under Rule 9 Inquiry Rules 2006. Building on this, during her first six, Amanda observed and assisted her then pupil supervisor on regulatory matters and various sensitive Inquests, including Inquests engaging Article 2 ECHR and/or Prevention of Future Deaths Reports.
Amanda has won numerous academic and advocacy scholarships, including an award for her cross-examination skills.
Outside work, Amanda enjoys backpacking, camping and outdoor swimming (in all weather)! She is friendly and approachable and speaks fluent Spanish.
