About Ashley
Biography
Hello! I am an attorney practicing in Southern Nevada and focusing on a broad range of family law matters. I am a graduate of the UNLV William S. Boyd School of Law here in Las Vegas, and served as a Judicial Law Clerk for a Clark County Family Court Judge before entering private practice. I am the owner and founding partner of Burkett Law, PLLC, a boutique law firm with an emphasis on the compassionate and pragmatic navigation of domestic legal problems. Our goal is to help community members with their family law needs both inside and outside of the courthouse.
In my free time, I love reading fantasy fiction, watching professional hockey (Go, Knights, Go!) and football (favorite team disclosed upon request), travelling, and spending time with my friends, family, and silly cat, Oliver. If you need legal help, or if you would just like to network or chat, feel free to reach out to Burkett Law, PLLC!

Ashley Dunning Burkett's Lawyer Endorsements
"My sibling Ashley is a motivated and thoughtful practitioner. She entered the legal field with extensive interpersonal, bookkeeping, and business management experience, and has dedicated her practice exclusively to family law. Ashley embraces the sociological and psychological aspects of family dispute resolution, and embodies the “counselor” role beautifully. She has been a great resource, and always makes herself available for client questions and referrals on divorce, custody, juvenile dependency, and delinquency matters. I am a sincerely appreciative colleague in the Southern Nevada legal community, and a proud brother."
"Ashley is a wonderful and fierce advocate for her clients. She is patient and listens to her clients needs. Ashley is competent and proficient in the area of family law and knows the court system well. It has been a pleasure working with Ashley and I look forward to cases with her in the future."
