Edinam Amekpleame

Edinam Ama Priscilla Amekpleame is a private legal practitioner in her second year of practice.

 

Edinam earned her LLB from the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (GIMPA) and proceeded to the Ghana School of Law.
An avid mooter, she contributed greatly to the Ghanaian Moot Court Society during her time at GIMPA, participating as an active mooter in several competitions locally and internationally. She and her team placed 4th for the memorial rounds and 15th overall in the 2018 All Africa Competition. Taking the initiative after graduation, Edinam branched into the organisation of moot competitions and coaching of teams, passing down the vast knowledge and expertise she had gained over time.
 

After becoming a solicitor and barrister of the Supreme Court of Ghana in 2022, Edinam entered private practice where she thrived and excelled handling cases beyond her level prior to joining Asiedu & Yorke as an associate. Despite her age, the lawyer has racked up a varied range of experience since her pupillage, which she continues to build upon.

 

Edinam has been involved in cases related to debt recovery, representing two banks that sought to recover loans to the sum of GH₵150,000. 
In addition, Edinam has worked pro bono for several cases. She represented clients who had been victims of workplace  assault and domestic violence, enabling them to receive compensation. She has also helped reformed convicts get a reduction in their sentences.
 

Edinam’s primary focus areas are family matters, debt recovery, criminal appeals, land matters and company related issues.
