Outstanding Law Office

I have had the pleasure of working with several attorneys from the office including Wendy, Ron, and most recently Joanne Sallit-Hull. I cannot speak highly enough of their exceptional service and professionalism. From the moment I stepped into their office, I was greeted with warmth and respect, set...ting the tone for what has been truly positive experiences. Navigating legal matters can often feel overwhelming, but the team at Ashby Law Offices made the entire process seamless and stress-free. They demonstrated an unparalleled level of expertise and dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for my case. What sets Ashby Law Offices apart is their genuine commitment to their clients. They took the time to listen attentively to my concerns, thoroughly explaining all aspects of my case and providing invaluable guidance every step of the way. Their personalized approach made me feel valued and supported throughout the entire legal process. Furthermore, the communication with the team was impeccable. I was kept informed of any developments promptly, and my inquiries were always met with prompt and insightful responses. This level of transparency and responsiveness truly set them apart. I was particularly impressed by the professionalism and compassion displayed by Joanne. She treated me not just as a client, but as a person deserving of empathy and understanding during what was undoubtedly a challenging time. Thanks to her expertise and unwavering support, I achieved a favorable outcome that exceeded my expectations. I am immensely grateful to Joanne, and the staff at Ashby Law Offices for their exceptional service and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal representation.

Will Preparation

Friendly, qualified, informative, and patient service! What else could we ask for.

Posted by Terry | July 25, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Wills & Living Wills

Incredibly timely and very professional

My wife and I needed to update our wills and needed very prompt service. Wendy went above and beyond in meeting our timeline. She guided us with great advice and ideas and met with us to thoroughly review what our intentions were. She was extremely professional, thorough and forwarded us drafts to re...view prior to our meeting to finalize our wills. She is very kind and really easy to work with. My wife and I would recommend her very highly. If I could give 10 stars I certainly would do that.

Will Drag Your Case On and On for the Money!

Wendy seemed to want to keep my case going on and on, with the other attorney, even though I wanted it settled. I would receive a letter in the mail practically every day. All this was to her was $$$$. She knew I had just gotten a workers compensation settlement and was determined she was going to us...e it up on my custody settlement. There were so many billing errors, it was unbelievable. After paying over $20,000 for a simple custody case that never got settled, I had to find another attorney. He settled it in a matter of two weeks. Now 13 years later, a little over $1000 that was in dispute in billing errors has come back to haunt me. She has once again turned me over to a collection agency. I keep telling her to take me to court but she knows I will win. So now I have this on my record again! She does not do what's best for the client. She does what's best for Wendy's pocketbook.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
