BEST LAWYER IN THE WORLD!!!! My hero and lifesaver.

To all looking for a family lawyer, Ashley is truly the best. I am not really sure if I can put in words the gratitude I have for all Ashley has done for me. Not only was she amazingly helpful during my most stressful, confusing time, but her help will forever affect me and my family, as her work on... my child’s custody agreement was paramount. Ashley made me feel like family from our first meeting. She is an innately empathetic, caring person and it showed. She was always available for questions, never lost connection with me or made me feel as though she even had other clients (although she had many I am sure). I could also tell, from our meetings, that Ashley is brilliant! She is so smart, knows all the ins-and-outs of her field, and will do everything in her power to aid in the success of her clients. I came to Ashley in a very raw, low place in my life. I do not know where I would be now if it were not for Ashley and her staff. It has been 2 years since my divorce was finalized and I am still thinking about how amazing Ashley is and how she has affected my family is such a positive way. I will forever be grateful. With everything going on in our world today, getting divorced is the last thing anyone wants to do. But, if you have to- don’t look elsewhere. If you came upon Ashley’s name, you have found your Lawyer- I promise.

No Hesitation

I truly believe Ashley worked hard to make sure my best interests were met. I have worked with other attorney's who didn't think about the various aspects of my situation which left me tremendously exposed. I feel that Ashley would evaluate my case by how the opposing counsel would handle it and the...n provided the legal assistance to me to fill in any gaps. She knew the case law in order to back up our position any time we had to appear in court or mediation. It was clearly evident that Ashley cared for me and my situation. She was always available to counsel me and provide specific legal strategies that we followed to help me prevail. In the end I believe my ex wife was licking her wounds.

Professional, knowledgeable, empathetic

I absolutely loved working with Ashley, and was overall very happy with the service I received from Weinberg Cooper. Ashley helped me navigate and negotiate my divorce with knowledge, sensitivity and compassion. I had utmost confidence that nothing would slip through the cracks. At the same time, I w...as able to achieve the amicable resolution I wanted - the judge even commented on how rare it is to see a divorce this amicable. In the courtroom Ashley's professionalism clearly shows and commands respect from the judge and others.

Ashley saved my life

I was referred by my counselor to Ashley. From the very beginning, I found her to be caring, professional, sharp and attuned to my needs. I had a domestic violence issues, and we were able to handle that part of the issue, and also get the divorce done. All this within 6 months. She respected wha...t I wanted to go after and what I didn't want to go after. She gave me emotional support when I needed it. She gave me empathy in the process. She was easy for me, my ex and his lawyer to deal with. And she also got me what I deserved. I HIGHLY recommend her.

Passionate Advocate & Powerful Ally

Ashley came very high recommended. I retained her services for my divorce after consulting with some stellar attorneys. It was clear that she was the best of the best, and I wanted her on my case right away. Ashley is truly passionate about what she does and genuinely advocates for her clients and th...eir specific needs. She is a formidable expert who knows the ins and outs of divorce and family law and is always one step ahead. Naturally, I was very anxious about my divorce, but Ashley was by my side always--made sure I was informed, helped problem solve, was firm and stood our ground with the adversary when called for, and acted collaboratively when needed. And while I had heard that getting timely and reliable communication is a common issue when working with lawyers, I never experienced this with Ashley. Her communication is impeccable--she is swift with email responses, and whenever I needed to talk to her on the phone, she always made sure to fit me in her busy schedule. Last but not least, she is very aware of the significant financial burden the divorce process can be. From the beginning, she made it known that her focus was on resolving my case in a cost-effective manner. With intelligence and class, she remained consistent in all of her promises. I can't recommend her enough, for any level of cases. If I can give her 10 stars, I would. Thank you Ashley for helping me close this chapter in my life and for helping me enter into a brighter future. I am eternally grateful.
