About Ashley
Biography
When finding the right personal injury lawyer, experience matters — and Ashley Watkins is living proof of that. As a former defense attorney for insurance companies, Ashley saw firsthand the lengths the insurance industry goes to avoid paying injured people what they deserve.
Ashley also saw how low-fee attorneys settled cases for pennies to avoid doing work and investing in their clients, selling injury victims on low overhead with an empty promise of more money in their pockets.
Sam & Ash Injury Law was founded by Ashley and her law partner Sam Mirejovsky to give injury victims a better option. She couldn't watch insurance companies and shady lawyers take advantage of people who trust them. Injury victims deserve What’s Right.
Ashley uses her unique knowledge of how the insurance industry works to get accident victims the best results possible. Through her passion and determination, she has helped thousands of accident victims recover millions of dollars.
Recognized as an American Academy of Attorneys Top 40 under 40 and as a member of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, Ashley has quickly developed a reputation in personal injury. She was most recently voted Vegas Inc Top Lawyer Community Choice Trailblazer award.
The results Ashley gets are the direct result of her passion for doing What's Right and giving you the care and compassion that you deserve. With Ashley, every case matters, which means your voice will always be heard.

Making pain painless!
Ashley made the whole process from start to finish so easy. She was upfront snd honest through the whole thing. She was more than a lawyer, she showed her true compassion and how much she actually cared. Definitely would not have recovered as much without her either.

Excellent service and attitude, got me what I was looking for
I was hit by a road raging tractor trailer driver and was livid. I hunted down security camera footage, got it, and tried to take on their insurance company on my own. Shockingly, that got me nowhere. I'm not the "go to a lawyer" type but the accident was so egregious that it needed to be addressed. ...

Replied last February 3, 2022Thank you for your kind words, Shawn. Dealing with the insurance company is always difficult — especially when it's the insurance company of a tractor trailer. Insurance companies make a lot of promises until it comes time to make good on them. We are so glad we were able to help hold them accountable and get you what is fair.

ASH = THE BEST
I had another lawyer first that never called me and when he did it was about all the things that couldn't be done for me because of a liability dispute, and they cancelled one of my doctor appointments. So I called Sam & Ash and they gave me answers and help getting back to my doctor. Ash was not wor...

BEST PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY
I had another attorney working my case but was not satisfied with their communication. I felt that I was stuck and was nervous about changing attorneys halfway through my case. I decided to call around and see if I had other options. After being unable to get a hold of anyone else on a Saturday, (my ...
