About Ashelee

As a recent former Maricopa County prosecutor, I have the skills and experience to provide the best defense in your case, be it for DUI, CDL violations, felony charges, or other misdemeanor(s). This unique experience gives me the edge over other attorneys. I know how a prosecutor thinks, and how a prosecutor is trained, and I will use those skills to your advantage. Moreover, I have significant courtroom and trial experience to help obtain a beneficial solution in your case.  

I graduated magna cum laude from the University of Baltimore. I have worked for several prosecutorial agencies before beginning my career as a successful defense lawyer, including an internship with the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia and the Maryland Attorney General.

As a prosecutor, I won several awards for Division Attorney of the Month and Bureau Attorney of the Month.  I have handled over a thousand felony and misdemeanor cases and have been successful in numerous jury and bench trials, inluding DUI, drug possession, various traffic offenses, and more. I will meticulously evaluate your situation and give you my honest assessment.

I pride myself in being available, attentive, and knowledgeable. I will work hard for you and keep you apprised ofevery aspect of your case. You will not be just another case. I appreciate, respect, and listen intently to my clients. My fees are very affordable and I offer reasonable payment plans. Call now for a free consultation.

    Review Ashelee Weeks

    Miracle Worker!

    Posted by

    Hire them! I had a fantastic experience with Ashelee and Weeks Law. I am so glad I hired Ashelee to represent me in my Aggravated Assault case. Ashelee was able to get me an incredible deal with only probation when I was looking at no less than 7.5 years in prison! I am so grateful to Ashelee and the firm. She responded in a timely fashion and kept me updated regarding the progress in my case. I would recommend her to anyone! Can't say enough good about the firm! Very happy. -MW

    Fantastic experience. I've never had to elicit the help of an attorney before and was dreading the process. Ashelee Weeks not only provided a professional and efficient experience, but was able to fully remove a moving citation from my driving record. I'm incredibly thankful for her services and would recommend her to anyone in need of legal assistance.
