Great lawyer

Ashley was very professional throughout the entire process. She didn’t try to BS me about what may take place and was good about explaining the process and options for my divorce.

Custody

I recommend Ashley for child custody matters. I was fortunate enough to work my issues out in mediation. However, Ashley had procedures in line that would have had me prepared for court. She is a well respected attorney in my district and I had confidence that she would not have let me down in cour...t. Glad we didn't have to go that far but would still recommend her.

Competent, Confident & Compassionate

Ashley Mroczek effectively conducted my case as my divorce attorney and I would highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce or custody matter. I hired Ashley as my attorney after months of being in the legal hands of another local attorney whom I felt did not have me and my daughter’s best... interest at heart. Through family and former client’s recommendations, I met with Ashley and could immediately see the compassion and feel that she did have our best interest at heart. From the first consultation, I felt confident and comfortable with her. She listened to me and was truly concerned and compassionate for what I was enduring. I was left in near financial ruin, almost homeless, relentless stress, anxiety, emotional abuse, and hours of sleepless nights trying to figure out my ex-husband’s web of deceit. I was threatened by him that I would “lose my children, be financially ruined, and have my reputation ruined.” Ashley assured me I would NOT lose my children and accepted my case without knowing how spiteful my ex-husband could be. Ashley was encouraging with her advice while still being respectful of my wishes. Repeatedly throughout my case, Ashley responded to my requests for help as the opposing side continued to embark with legal maneuvering with the goal to attempt to intimidate and wear me down. Ashley assured me that things would work out in the end while being honest and realistic about the pros and cons of my case. It was Ashley who recommended participating in mediation conducted by Retired Judge Anne Hunter Simpson. Although there were some disagreements from both parties, it was productive and we came to a resolution without having to go to court. Both Ashley and Judge Simpson were very professional and expressed words of encouragement to me during the mediation process. My ex-husband hired a high-priced lawyer and spent double what I did and I feel my representation was worth double what I paid. In the end our results were basically the same with equal time spent with our daughters. Her communication skills and style are very direct yet delivered in a matter that a client would understand and accept. For billing, Ashley’s staff kept me up to date with detailed bills so I always knew where I stood. Her assistant, Patrice was very knowledgeable and kind to me. If I ever need to re-visit my case or need advice, Ashley is who I will return too. Ashley’s representation has afforded me a future opportunity of happiness.

HONEST

My friend told me about Ms. Mroczek so I scheduled a consultation. She just shot me straight from the beginning. She listened and told me what she thought. She didn't make crazy promises and charge me a million dollars. She told me that I should wait to file my case based on my situation. To say tha...t to me takes money out of her pocket and I appreciated it. I also left feeling like I understood what she was talking about. She broke it down to the basics so I got it. I will recommend her to all my friends.
