There is not enough I can say for all Melissa has done for me and my children. I hired Melissa after having 2 other local attorneys. I won’t mention their names, however I don’t feel with them they always had the best intentions of my children involved. From the start with my consultation, Melissa always had not only my protection legally /finamcially at the top, but the protection of my children first and foremost. It had taken me three years and two attorneys before Melissa came and finished my case with the amount of money she told me she would. She actually finished my three year long case in just 6 months. If you are from an abusive relationship and are wondering where to go next and who could help you finish a long horrible process, I would definitely consult Melissa to help you. I do believe she is an angel for me and my kids...there just aren’t any more words or better way to put it. Thank you Melissa Amy and the M&Ms

Melissa and her associates set the bar really high when it comes to catering services to the client. Melissa’s representation of me was an empowering experience- she kept me informed along the way, helping me to understand the “whys” of the legal process, which she understood is important to me and actually seemed to anticipate my questions. I felt confident in her knowledge and affirmed by her results. Whenever anything was filed by the opposition, I was always told to say so if I wanted to discuss it (and I did). The consistent communication helped ease me through the extremely taxing legal processes. When contending with abuse, either of yourself or a loved one, knowing that someone believes you and is 100% on your side is critical. This was never a question with Melissa and her staff, and that truly allowed me the strength to power through with my head on straight. Melissa’s sharp people skills are on par with her practicality and professionalism.

i WAS SO PLEASED WITH THE FACT I GOT A CALL FROM MS DENTON SAME DAY I ENQUIRED I WAS BUSY AT THETIME SO I CALED HER BACK THE NEXT DAY WHICH WAS A HOLIDAY AND SHE WAS RIGHT THERE TO ANSWER MY QUESTIONS , SHE TRULY CARES . SHE DOESNT WASTE YOUR TIME OR HIGH PRESSURE YOU. SHE PERSONALLY HELPS HER CIENTS AND IF SHE CANT SHE HAS A PARTNER WHO YOU CAN WORK WITH , SHE MAKES IT VERY COMFORTING YET BUSINESS LIKE I WILL HIRE WHEN IM READY TO NO DOUBT

I submitted a email to avvo looking for help, I was contacted by 3 attys over the week after, Melissa Denton was the first to reply and the only one who contacted me personally the other two had assistants make contact . I immediately felt relief just from listening to vm. when I called her back the next day she took my call which happened to be a holiday. I was able to find out things that the other two lawyers would need a large consult fee to answer, melissa denton was understanding patient and assertive, listened without judgement and never once made me feel like it was all about getting hired, she is very helpful and i believe that she truly cares . I am not yet able to retain an attorney but as soon as I am Melissa Denton will be who i hire

Melissa represented me through my divorce. Her compassionate, sound advice was above and beyond what I expected from a divorce lawyer. Her professionalism stood out among others I looked at to handle my case. In the end I was extremely pleased with the results. Melissa's made me feel confident and sure things would be ok. I'm very grateful for her expertise and guidance through the entire process.

I highly recommended ASCHER & DENTON, PLLC , the firm has a great team. Melissa has a great personality and a real sense of caring which made me feel at ease. Very nice team with experience and knowledge. I could always contact with any questions, and her thoughtfulness is much appreciated. Very grateful for her help. Thank you very much.

Melissa and her staff were unbelievable. She saved me about $30,000 in spousal maintenance and I was able to keep %100 of my pension. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a divorce done quickly with optimum results. Her rates are fair as well.

It was a pleasure working with Melissa and her staff. Her kind words and dedication to my case eased many of my uncertainties. Through our dialog, she was able to determine my legal problem. She communicated the legal speak in terms I could clearly understand, and accomplished all we discussed and more. I would work with Melissa again.

I was in a custody battle for a little over 5 years when my daughter was little, and it was a real mess. I had been through many attorney's who did not understand the complexity of my case, all the filings and restrictions that were placed on me were something they could not undo, and they made me feel that my case was hopeless. It ended in a way that was not favorable to me and I see that it was taken way too far–it was taken to trial and it did not need to be. I was granted liberal visitation but my daughter lived with her father at the end of all that. I am certain the court ruled this way because I had poor legal counsel or–at times, none at all because I couldn’t afford it. The cost of it all was outrageous and unnecessary. When I look back on those years, I am very sorry that I did not have Melissa for legal counsel, as she could have really changed the outcome for my daughter, myself, and all the heartache of families involved--not to mention we would have saved a ton of money. My daughter decided to live with me for high school and moved in. This sparked a new battle: 7 years after the original battle ended, my case was reopened by my ex-husband, again fighting for custody of our daughter. It seemed that the same convoluted filings were made and crazy things happened to the point where I was not allowed to see my 15 year old daughter. Somehow he had managed to file papers that yanked my daughter out of school (and our home) on her second-to-last day of her freshman year, before she had taken her finals, placed me in contempt of court slapped my with all attorney’s fee’s and placed a restraining order on me in what seemed like one fell swoop. I scrambled to find an attorney, found one and retained him. He totally did not help me in this pivotal moment and things became worse for me legally. I felt completely helpless in my situation. I called the attorney I had retained frustrated and said I would not work with him anymore because he made everything worse. He referred me to Melissa Denton. Upon my first meeting with her she clearly understood the series of filings, the situation I was in legally, and my position. She said it would be a matter of undoing what had been done and getting the right evidence in front of the judge. She clearly saw through my mess and constantly put me at ease through the matter. She understood that it was a very stressful time for me and my daughter and was always very assuring, polite and clear about what was happening. She undid all the damage and I regained custody of my daughter in a fairly short amount of time. She is extremely bright and did not miss a single opportunity to clear up my case. She was on top of every single action, quick with responses, and extremely knowledgeable of the system. She always returned calls promptly and is very respectful and honest. Melissa is literally the most effective, professional attorney I have ever worked with. I am very grateful for her services. I would highly recommend her.

Attorney Denton was quick to put my mind at ease when I first required her services. Her approach to my needs were calming and reassuring. She was always ethical and fair and insisted on the same from both myself as well as opposing counsel. She made no statements or promises that did not, in the end, finalize as presented. Her methods were always focused on solving the issues as opposed to confrontation and engagement. I would use her services again and recommend her highly.
