Ashley is awesome!!!

I couldn't recommend Ashley enough. Through my divorce, I left every interaction knowing that she had my children's best interest at heart. She understood the emotional toll and took immense care when navigating me through the process. Her ability to demand level headedness and reasonable decision ma...king (from both sides) helped us cross the finish line. Thank you Ashley!

I highly recommend

I highly recommend Ashley for child custody and parenting time needs. She made the process feel incredibly smooth with her expertise and recommendations. During our consultation she was able to recommend an alcohol monitoring company “Sober Link” that was the perfect solution to my concerns regarding... the other coparent. I did not even know this resource existed and it was exactly what I needed. Originally, I anticipated having to take more drastic measures and instead they were completely alleviated with her recommendation. I was impressed with her availability and fast responses to all of my questions and concerns. I knew what to expect due to her ability to communicate the process effectively and I felt her fees were fair and transparent from the beginning. Her billing process and agreements were simple and convenient through an online platform to minimize in-person paperwork. She was encouraging and understanding which made this process much more manageable. Everyone knows how scary family law cases can be. Our children’s lives are literally on the line and I can’t think of any situation more important or terrifying. I cannot explain how empowering it was to finally take the necessary action knowing I had someone I could trust to help navigate the system. As expected, I received push back and threats from the other party and Ashley provided the support and reassurance through this difficult time. I can’t count how many times I thought “take my money”. She is well worth the cost and I am confident she will be able to help me navigate any custody needs I may have in the future.

The best!!! Highly recommend

Having Ashley as my attorney fsr exceeded my expectations for the outcome of my divorce and custody situation! I got way more than I imagined because she fought for me and my son, she is very understanding and knows how to get things done especially is situations that are very complicated! Definitely... recommend Ashley if you need someone to help you with divorce/custody! Couldn't have dreamed of a better ending to the divorce

Family Focused- Highly Recommended

Ashley Marelius supported our family as we updated our court issued parenting plan and custody agreement. We couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. She listens well, she's knowledgeable in the field, and she was quick to respond all throughout the process. Most of all, she got us across the goal l...ine. I would recommend her to my family and friends. I hope we do not need a lawyer in the future but if we do, she will be our first call. Thank you for helping our family in a stressful time of need.

Ashley’s the best!

I would recommend Ashley for family law issues. I hadn’t had to deal with custody things through an attorney for 12+ years but knew she was on my side and would stick up for me to get done what was fair for everyone. Often times people get stuck with what they need and not what’s best for their kids,... I can say that we came up with something that we will try for my young one and if things don’t work after some time then we will revisit the drawing board. Hopefully not with attorneys but if I ever need one, I’ll be calling Ashley to know I’m in good hands. Through out the entire process she was great at communicating via email. I did see someone’s review that mentioned not talking on the phone etc. from my perspective I would prefer email too so I can look back at a conversation and there’s no chance for confusion. Thanks for everything Ashley!
