Ashley is a compassionate yet aggressive advocate who has focused her practice on exclusively family law matters and appeals. Ashley represents clients in relationship transitions of all types, including contested and uncontested divorce, child custody, child support, modification actions, contempt proceedings, relocations, protection orders, parenting time issues, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, and paternity. Ashley also has extensive experience pursuing appeals for her family law clients and is well-versed in all aspects of the appellate process. Ashley has received numerous awards including being selected by her peers as a Super Lawyer Rising Star.
Ashley prioritizes the needs and goals of her clients and believes in the importance of thorough preparation and responsive communication. With training in mediation and Collaborative Law (“no court divorce”), Ashley emphasizes making every effort to resolve family conflict without costly and devastating ligation. However, Ashley is an experienced litigator who also understands that in some circumstances litigation is the best course of action for achieving an outcome in the client’s best interest. Ashley frequently assists clients in matters involving complex custody matters, jurisdictional issues, and high net worth divorces. Ashley’s practice philosophy is to represent her clients in a way which vigorously protects their interests while doing everything possible to minimize the emotional toll and financial hardship which often comes with divorce. As a mother of two, Ashley is also sensitive to conducting family law litigation in a way which preserves the safety and well-being of the children.
