“Ashlee is so supportive and kind, I am very grateful I worked with her, she guided me through my divorce, it felt like working alongside an expert and a good friend. She made my life so much easier, thank you so much Ashlee!”
Ashlee is one of the rarest kinds of Colorado residents – the natural native. She was born in Kersey, Colorado, and later moved to Englewood. Ashlee worked as a prosecutor for criminal cases before joining the ranks of family law legal professionals in 2020. When asked, “Why family law?” Ashlee will tell you that she is deeply committed to helping families navigate one of the most difficult and challenging times of their lives.
She received a Bachelor of Arts from DU with a double major in Political Science and Communication Studies with a Minor in Studio Art (2014). She then received a Master of Science from Johns Hopkins University (Education Studies) (2016) and a Juris Doctor from University of Denver (2019). She was on the International Collegiate Debate Team in undergrad school. She also holds certificates in elementary and special education. Ashlee served as the Vice President of the Latino Law Student Association in law school.
What you might not know: Ashlee is a first-generation high school and college graduate. When she’s not serving clients, you can find her painting, drawing, and hiking.

Client Testimonials
Compassionate & Effective Counsel That Makes a Difference
April is very knowledgeable of the law and will not let you down.
I would have jumped over the net and shook your hand today
I couldn’t have gotten a better outcome.
April and staff were wonderful.
The firm is professional, positive and grounded in their approach.
The firm is professional, positive and grounded in their approach. Everyone in the office is always willing to help and is extremely flexible, which I can say is valued by a working professional. There has always been open and prompt communication. Hannah ultimately won our case, and she did so by having strong intellect, presentation skills, and a genuine interest in the well-being of both my daughter and I. I will continue to value the relationship and expertise long after the issues are resolved.
April is well prepared and understands the law and court processes and procedures well beyond anything I have experienced, ensuring success.
