Amanda M. Buckingham

Amanda M. Buckingham is an associate in Morrison Mahoney’s Hartford office who concentrates on general liability and tort liability. She represents insureds and insurance companies in motor vehicle liability, premises liability, and dog bite matters. Her work involves civil claims in which liability, damages, insurance issues, and factual development can determine how a dispute proceeds. She practices in state and federal court and handles matters through the stages of civil litigation and alternative dispute resolution.

Buckingham earned a J.D. from the University of Connecticut School of Law and a B.A. from Bay Path University. Bay Path University has reported that she graduated magna cum laude before attending law school. Her education was followed by work involving insurance and employment-related claims, giving her experience with litigation and the claims-handling side of disputed matters. That background supports her current defense practice in liability cases involving insured individuals, businesses, and insurance carriers.

Buckingham has conducted mediations, binding arbitrations, civil jury trials, and bench trials. Her current practice focuses on tort matters, including motor vehicle liability, premises liability, and dog bite claims. Before joining Morrison Mahoney, she worked in-house at an insurance company and served as an employment practices liability adjuster for a large reinsurance carrier. In that role, she handled claims involving allegations such as discrimination, retaliation, harassment, and wrongful termination in administrative agencies and courts.

Amanda M. Buckingham is admitted to practice in Connecticut and before the US District Court for the District of Connecticut. Her current firm profile places her within Morrison Mahoney’s Tort Liability practice and identifies Hartford as her main office. Her experience combines courtroom work, mediation and arbitration, insurance claims handling, and civil defense. She represents insureds and insurers in liability disputes while drawing on prior employment-practices claims experience and in-house insurance work.
