Ashley Donovan

Destroyed my marriage of close to 20 years, and helped tear our beautiful family apart. Also, stole all the current and future blessings that God had given my wife and I, our kids and our futures! I hope that you experience the same in your own family and that another attorney destroys your marri...age and family like you destroyed mine!

Single abused mommas?? this is the girl you are looking for. Let me just tell you... When I was served divorce papers I was a stay home mom of a 8 month old ... that hired the first firm I could find between the naps of my son. I hired Rowley and Chapman and 18 k in legal fees later and they weren...’t even able to get me even child support. They obviously didn’t have my best interest but the interest of getting the last of my savings. My ex had a scumbag of attorney who advised him to do evil things to me to get rid of me and out of the picture of him and my son. (Supposedly one of the best Lds family law attorneys in the East valley, but seriously I was dealing with a couple of Cowards, perverted, evil men who managed to get me out of marital home with lies and a false order of protection just because I requested in temporary orders to stay in Marital home to take care of my newborn and my ex to go with his mother who lived 15 minutes from marital home. It was in the beginning of the Covid lockdown. I found Ashley through prayers and guided by Angels I think and Azlawhelp.org. In her profile it said she had experience with abuse. My ex was financially, emotionally and mentally abusive but I couldn’t really figure out what he was trying to accomplish until it became very clear. I was an international bride/wife with no idea of family court in the US. What a nightmare!!! I was lucky to find Ashley and I think she was a good fit because she went straight to the point, made me understand how family court works in AZ, didn’t take advantage of me, and I feel she educated me during the process. I was certainly clueless. All I can say, is that she didn’t allow those cowards to walk all over me, and leave me completely destitute and without my son like they were trying. Ashley is young, tech savvy, straightforward, honest, I don’t know who trained her, but she is very educated and with lots of experience for her young age and I think the best quality is that she doesn’t take advantage of her clients by educating them. I predict she will become one of the best female family court attorneys in AZ, maybe even a judge hopefully a Judge. I pray more attorneys follow her steps, because unfortunately lawyers are not regulated by tax dollars like realtors, teachers, etc. so make sure you go to a good person. Because most attorneys have lots of power and poor regulations and many can rip you off. God bless you Ashley.

I hired Ashley Donovan as my family law attorney to assist me with a modification to a parenting plan involving my two young children. Aside from some needed changes to the plan, it was also imperative that the court be made aware of my ex- spouse’s unwillingness to co-parent, their harassing and ill...-mannered behavior toward me, etc. When I met with Ashley I explained to her my concerns and made her aware of my expectations. She listened and cared about what I had to say and worked with me on my case for the next several months. Ashley kept me informed during the process and we spoke regularly on the phone or in person as needed. She was very organized and thorough. When it came down to the day of trial, Ashley's true colors really shined through! I was very proud to see how she addressed my ex on the stand and caught him in several lies during cross examination. She really thought out how she would present my case in court and was very prepared. My ex was represented by an attorney as well who had a very aggressive and nasty demeanor. Ashley helped prepare me for what to expect during cross examination and I made it through with confidence. Once the judge made their ruling, it was obvious they saw the true issues at hand and my ex was exposed. The judged ruled in my favor and the changes I requested were granted. In addition, I also was awarded child support that I was not expecting. Aside from the great results in court, for the first time in years I have a huge weight lifted from my shoulders. My constant worries are gone and I can now look forward to a brighter future with my children because justice was served. If you are looking for a professional and composed attorney that provides results in court, Ashley is your gal! - 5 STARS ***** & Highly recommended!

Wow! As we all know, the Family Law community of lawyers in Phoenix is very small. All the attorneys and judges know each other. There are so many luncheons and "charity events" that they all attend together. They "buy" tables and do "favors" for each other. That is why you want to hire Ashley. She i...s more connected in the system than any other lawyer. If you are having an issue with your spouse, Ashley will take that person and absolutely destroy their lives. She is a top pro. She will talk directly to the judge in your case, ( at an outside event) and convince them to side with her decision. Ashley convinced the judge that my ex was a violent individual and had our son taken away. This wasn't true at all, but Ashley convinced me that it was the right thing to do. She said a man should never have custody of a child.Being a outspoken lesbian, Ashley also represents same sex divorce cases. Here is the best part; she only costs $200.00 per month! What a deal!

When I asked for Ms. Donovan's help in simple wage garnishment and child support modification for my ex-husband who was in arrears, she incorrectly got my case classified as 4D (a person who has taken state aid in the past). This resulted in a huge bureaucratic nightmare with the State and DES. Thi...s incorrect classification required a second trial that cost me an additional six months without support and 10K in legal fees. It is 18 months later and I'm still in court trying to get an accurate arrears total for my ex. Ashley also didn't return phone calls and openly admitted she was overwhelmed by my case. She forgot to get my ex-husband (who is an attorney himself) served for mediation. She also sent me another client's court correspondence for three months, and despite multiple phone calls (and ‘return to sender’) it finally took me contacting her other client via Facebook and letting him about it before the simple address correction was made. Ashley left the firm she was representing me at and her senior partner inherited me as a client. Two months later she joined the firm that was representing my ex-husband.
