Ashley M. Opfer got her undergraduate degree in theatre and dance education from Luther College in Decorah, Iowa in 2008. While completing her student teaching experience in Minneapolis, Minnesota she saw many of her students struggling with legal problems. She decided that she could not help these students in the way that she wanted to help as a teacher and so she made the decision to attend law school in order to be an attorney who would advocate for children and families.
Ashley received her Juris Doctorate from the University of Denver, Sturm College of Law in May of 2012 and was admitted to practice law in Colorado the same year. During her time in law school, Ashley honed her advocacy and litigation skills as a member of the University's National Trial Team. Before joining Stowell P.C., Ashley tailored her legal research and writing skills as a clerk for the Honorable Robert McGahey in the 2nd Judicial District and learned many of the practical skills necessary as a domestic relations intern in Littleton, Colorado. Ashley has been an attorney at Stowell P.C. since November of 2012 and practices in the areas of family law, juvenile law, and estate planning. She is passionate about and committed to helping families through the legal system.
Outside of the practice of law, Ashley is married and has one son. She has a sheltie and enjoys snowboarding, swimming, camping and bike riding.

Beware This Attorney
My personal opinion is that Ashley Opfer and this firm were incompetent in our case. Ms. Opfer is barely two years out of law school but is supposedly the owner of this practice. Was told that we had a very favorable case in family law jurisdictional issue after I paid them specifically for due d...
Troy, We are sorry that you were disappointed with your legal representation. Your statements about Ms. Opfer's experience and length of practice are false. We agree that, based on the facts you initially presented to us, you had a very favorable jurisdictional case. However, there were significant facts that were omitted in our initial consultation with you and that were not disclosed to us prior to the hearing in your matter when they were raised by the opposing party. We do strongly encourage our clients to be open and honest with us at the outset of a case so that we can give accurate counsel and advice. We are disappointed that you claim that we did not work with you in regards to your legal fees and did not meet with you to discuss the issue. We met with you on at least two occasions after your case was resolved, each of these meetings being at no cost. We also offered to meet with you to reach an amicable resolution after the Supreme Court Attorney Regulation Counsel determined that your complaints against us were false and unfounded. You declined to meet with us and failed to respond to any attempt we made to communicate with you. We understand that you have raised similar grievances with other attorneys you have worked with in the past. We are sorry that you have felt let down by the legal community and the judicial system as a whole. We hope that any experiences you have with the legal system in the future are more agreeable. Sincerely, Opfer & Stowell P.C.
"Ashley is settlement-minded, competent, and genuinely concerned for the well-being of her clients and their children. Our office found it was a pleasure to work with her, and we endorse her as an attorney."
