Amazing, kind and knowledgable attorney- could not recommend more!

I have been working with Ashley for the past two years. She initially helped me (+my young child) safely leave a marriage where I felt unsafe and provided guidance (along with a criminal attorney) on obtaining a final restraining order. She subsequently has helped me through a lengthly, emotional and... exhaustingly complicated divorce with a difficult ex. She not only has provided solid and strategic legal advice, but has truly been a friend and confidant through some of my roughest days in this process. Ashley is incredibly accessible and responds quickly whenever I reach out. I know and trust her to have my best interests in mind, even when my own emotions make it hard to see a path forward. I joke that if she wasn't a lawyer, she would make a great therapist because she is that patient and kind. Always able to calm me down by sticking to the facts and developing a plan that I feel comfortable with. I am incredibly grateful to have her legal expertise and am proud to say that I am finally divorced with the best outcome I could have expected. I know I will continue to work with her as my custody situation evolves and I have no doubt she will continue to show up and advocate for me and my child's best interests. I truly cannot say enough good things about Ashley.

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.

Five stars doesn't even seem like enough

Ashley Cooper was my attorney in an extremely contentious divorce and custody battle that involved domestic abuse (I was the victim). My ex-husband took me to Court countless times and for one false allegation after another. Not only did Ms. Cooper respond to every single legal situation in a way t...hat left me in complete awe of her knowledge, but Ms. Cooper also showed the emotional understanding of my case that let me survive the entire process. So many people talk of their lawyers in a way that depicts that as cold and unfeeling individuals... just in it for the money. I could never ever relate to that. Ms. Cooper not only cared about my case... she cared (and continues to care) about me as a person and was also always about protecting my children -- always asking about them and following their growth even to this day. Even years later (my case finally finished after seven years -- it started in Puerto Rico before I was able to move to New Jersey and retained Ms. Cooper), Ms. Cooper keeps in touch just to see that we are well. I definitely won the luck of the draw when I retained Ms. Cooper as an attorney for her legal knowledge, prowess and resilience. But I couldn't believe how lucky my draw was when I realized that I was able to call my divorce attorney, my friend. I can't say enough great things about Ms. Cooper and give her my highest recommendations.
