Ashley graduated Campbell Law (Cum Laude) with an eye toward criminal law. In law school she interned in the Federal Public Defender’s Office in Raleigh, the North Carolina Court of Appeals, and North Carolina Innocence Inquiry Commission.. It seemed as if she was well on the way to a career as a criminal defense attorney after graduation from law school, when the firm where Ashley worked became in need of a family law attorney. Ashley either volunteered or was volunteered (the facts are somewhat cloudy), but the result was like something out of Hollywood sports movie: the [almost] brand new attorney thrown into a family law trial and thriving.. Flash forward almost ten years, and Ashley is not only a family law attorney, handling a heavy load of cases from intake through depositions, mediation, and trial when necessary, she’s on an impressive – and close to unprecedented – six years and counting run as a North Carolina Super Lawyers Rising Star.. It’s pretty easy to see why all of us at Triangle Smart Divorce are thrilled Ashley chose to bring her knowledge, experience, empathy, and passion for family law to our team.

Firm: Miller Bowles Cushing, PLLC

I am passionate about my work, I fight hard for my clients, and I work tirelessly to achieve the best results.. My mantra in life has always been, “you can either give up, give in, or give it your all.” Shortly after I was born, my dad took a risk and started his own business working out of our basement. My mom joined him and fearlessly embraced the journey of small business owners with a hoard of three young children. Whether it was my mom knowing how every client took their coffee or my dad’s all-nighters during tax season, from day one my parents taught me the importance of compassion and hard work. Today, these are values that I bring to my work and to my clients.. When I decided to pursue a career in law I was met with a lot of “why?” When I dedicated my career to Family Law I was met with even more “why?” What people often do not understand is that the answer to that question is my WHY. People come to me during one of the most difficult periods in their lives. They are looking for an ally, someone to trust, someone to encourage them to not give up or give in. These people and families are why I chose this career path – to help them weather whatever storm they are facing.. I understand the circumstances requiring a Family Law attorney can be emotional, and I strive to be there for my clients through the entire process. I take pride in giving my all to my clients every day. I will not let you give up or give in, and we will give your case our all, together.. Outside the office you can find me exploring Charlotte with my husband and our three dogs: Indiana, Jackson, and Logan (affectionately known as our wiggle pack). If I am not cycling, you might spot me running down Providence Rd. with the wiggle pack tethered at my side. As a Pennsylvania native I am a proud born and raised Pittsburgh sports fan, forever in competition with my Philadelphia husband.. I am admitted to the state of North Carolina Bar and the United States Direct Court, Western District of North Carolina.

A separation and divorce is an emotional and confusing time. Since no two cases are the same, I take the time to understand each of my client’s concerns and explain all of their options. I believe that working in a collaborative manner is often a better solution than going to court, especially when children are involved. However, when collaboration and compromise are not options, I zealously advocate for my clients in the courtroom. I strive to find the best solution for my clients and empower them as they navigate this new chapter of their lives.. Since being admitted to the North Carolina Bar, I have focused my practice on family law. My passion for advocacy and community involvement has continued to grow through my practice. I am a volunteer attorney with Safe Alliance and represent victims of domestic violence seeking protective orders against their abusers. In April 2015, I was honored to receive the “Commitment to Justice” Award for my contributions to the Legal Representation Project.. I was also selected as one of the Top 10 Attorneys Under 40 by the National Academy of Family Law Attorneys in 2016, and one of the 10 Best Female Attorneys in North Carolina by the American Institute of Family Law Attorneys in 2016 and 2017.
