Amanda and Bianca Clinton were born in Sierra Leone to parents who were both lawyers. They moved to the UK when they were eight and lived there until they were 16, and their parents decided to migrate to Ghana as a career decision.
In Ghana, the ladies started their secondary education at Wesley Girls Senior High School and completed it at Lincoln Community School.
The twin sisters’ new career goal was to become lawyers, so they proceeded to Coventry University in the UK, where they acquired their first degree in law in 2002.
In 2006, they sat for the UK bar exams and passed. They also took the Ghana bar exams in 2009 and excelled. They currently practice law in both countries, including their birth country, Sierra Leone.

In 2011, Clinton’s Consultancy was birthed and registered, but it remained inactive for two years. It was only after Amanda resigned from her job, travelled to the US and saw how things were done differently that she started running the consultancy full-time. The first step she took was setting up a website.
Since its commencement, Clinton Consultancy has been in operation for 13 years, with international and local clients and offices in Ghana, Sierra Leone, Nigeria and Egypt. Amanda believes setting up the firm has helped clients and potential clients trust their credibility.
