Ashlings knowledge of law is unmatched. I contacted her because of a pretty big legal issue I had. She handled it with grace, professionalism and the upmost courtesy I have seen in any attorney. Not only did she go out of her way for me, she eased my mind most of the time in a VERY uncertain time. Her constant and consistent understanding of her craft is amazing. I would recommend her to anyone who has a legal issue that needs to be handled.
Ashling came to the hospital to do my father's will and power of attorney paperwork within 24 hours of me calling her. Her fee was very reasonable and she handled this delicate situation with sensitivity. We are so grateful for Ashling's excellent communication and responsiveness.
I highly recommend Ashling to anyone that has a need for representation regarding labor and employment. She has a deep understanding of the laws around employment and impressed me with her prompt and concise communication style. I would absolutely use her services again, and can tell anyone who is seeking to resolve a labor issue that Ashling is genuinely concerned about her clients and will do everything in her power to fight for them.
Ashling was responsive and knowledgeable. I was impressed by her no nonsense approach and directness. I needed an attorney with experience to guide me and she provided this service.
Ashling was professional, extremely knowledgeable, and worked diligently. Highly recommend Ashling for your attorney needs.
Ashling supported and helped me to clear my son's name. He was a part of investigation on break in academic integrity policy. His classmate copied his test answers and received outstanding grades. Both boys got academically punished 8 month before their graduation. With Ashling help my son's name was cleared of accusations and now he starts his first year in Yvy League School. Thank you, Ashling!
