Ashley Chavez Sedaghat

Ashley, and her team, were fantastic. I’m in a complicated custody case with a combative and difficult ex-partner, and was looking for a world class attorney. Ashley came extremely highly recommended by multiple other lawyers. Ashley and the Orange Coast Family Law team were so thorough, engaged... and highly detailed - really digging in to understand all the complexities of my case. Ashley did such a good job both understanding the case while being kind and conscientious to me and my wife through a super stressful time. She was able to calmly explain all the various options with a recommended path forwards - and in court was able to navigate away from unnecessary conflict and stress. Ashley is clearly extremely well respected by her peers - and I can see why - her attention to detail and her thought process, while keeping me at ease is amazing. Ashley is accompanied by a tremendous backup support team at Orange Coast Family Law, who are excellent and walked me through the whole process. I’d highly recommend Ashley and Orange Coast Family Law.

Ashley’s professionalism, legal knowledge, kindness and patience was exactly what I needed to get through the horrors of a 3-year high conflict California divorce from a narcissist with sociopathic tendencies. From day one during our preliminary consultation, Ashley provided a warm reassurance th...at made me feel safe. She explained every step and process along the way. She answered all of my questions. Ashley worked tirelessly to come up with solutions to try and keep me out of a trial. The day I was deposed was heartbreaking and terrifying. Ashley offered me empathy and humor to help me through that traumatic event. For that, I will be forever grateful. There aren't enough good things I can say about Ashley Sedaghat. Not only did I “survive” this uncomfortable ordeal, I came out of it with everything I asked for - fair support orders, fair division of property, and a coparenting plan that works for everyone. And we did not have to go to trial. Ashley Sedaghat is my hero and it is such a blessing that she came into my life.

I have had the pleasure of working with Ashley during a very difficult time in my life. When I was first introduced to her, I called looking for an attorney who specializes in Narcissistic cases. She gave me some tips and advice but I never moved forward to formally meeting her. Then, a co-worker of ...mine recommended an attorney to me. We spoke over the phone for a brief consultation. It was the same person who I had previously spoken to! Ashley remembered my case immediately. I was initially struck by how she listened to my personal situation and seemed to genuinely care about my case. I could tell she cared because of how she would describe different ideas and suggestions that could help my case. When I became frustrated with our family court system, she would listen each time and give solid advice. Her colleague, June, was also very helpful, professional, attentive and knows the court system well. When I would go into court with Ashley or June, they have an ease that I admire. Ashley and June significantly helped progress my case and I would recommend Orange Coast Family Law to anyone!

Words cannot describe Ashley’s professionalism, attention to detail, knowledge, and how much she cares about people. I have worked with a few attorneys in the past two years and wish I had found Ashley sooner. She clearly explains the process and what is needed for filling out forms and writing decla...rations. Her calm and caring personality, prompt responses, and perfect descriptions of the process had put me at ease. I would highly recommend Ashley to anyone going through a divorce.

Where do I even begin? I was completely lost when I had to file for divorce. I was with my ex for 18 years and 11 married. 2 kids, a house that sold, custody challenges and tons of community debt. My ex wasn’t playing nice which made things even more scary and stressful. Ashley was there every step o...f the way. She was prompt, responsive and kind. She helped me through the biggest stress of my entire life. I truly don’t know how I could’ve gotten through this without her. Not just her knowledge and expertise, but her kindness and patience. Her attention to detail was a huge plus too! She had my back and I felt respected and cared for. I can’t thank her enough for all that she’s done for me and my two boys. So thankful she came into my life! Oh and did I mention she gave me different options of how she could represent me? My ex spent 1/3 more money retaining his mediocre attorney than I did with THE BEST!!! Ashley you are not just an incredible attorney, you’re amazing human being and I’m thankful to have met you!! Thank you!!!
