Advocacy Should Focus on Facts, Not Personal Attacks

My experience with Ashley Bennington as opposing counsel in my custody matter has been extremely negative. To be clear, I did not hire her; she represents my ex-husband. Throughout the case, I have been disturbed by the way she has characterized me personally. Communications and positions taken on... behalf of her client have portrayed me as “difficult,” as a bad mother, and as someone attempting to prevent the father from seeing his child. Those characterizations are particularly troubling to me because my actions have been centered on advocating for my child and addressing concerns through the appropriate legal and professional channels. There is a significant difference between disagreeing with the opposing parent’s position and personally portraying that parent as a bad mother. I fully understand that her responsibility is to advocate for her client. I do not expect opposing counsel to agree with me. I do, however, expect a family-law attorney dealing with matters involving a child to maintain professionalism and focus on the facts, evidence, court orders, and the child’s welfare rather than using personal characterizations of the other parent. Based on my direct experience with her as opposing counsel, I have found her approach unnecessarily adversarial and personally disparaging. My review reflects my own experience and observations during this litigation.

Best Attorney

Ashley did an amazing job with my child custody case. It was a very crazy situation but she was there to help and guide me the whole way through. She did everything she said she would do and more. I would recommend her to anyone!

Hire someone else

She is not a good lawyer for those wanting custody of their children. She failed me and she failed them.

Wonderful

Ashley has been so helpful to me dealing with the custody issues that have occurred in the recent months. She was able to get an emergency order which helped my child maintain the status quo. She is always available to me and has been extremely helpful in these hard times.

Best lawyer hands down.

As a father fighting for full rights of his daughter I decided to reach out to Mrs. Bennington for help. At the end of court we had a victory and I know longer had the stress barring down on me. I owe her a huge thank you. The same day she won another father the same rights . She is super talented wh...en it comes to family law and i highly recommend her.
