Melissa Denton helped me help a family member with an emergency consultation. She is professional, responsible, caring and compassionate. I recommend her firm, Ascher & Denton without reservation. One Lawyer helped both of us.

She helped me through the delay tactic again and again. She is very trustworthy and knowledgeable. Her legal assistant was always very responsive and they were both a huge help. Would use her again if I needed to.

I would select even more characteristics describing Ms. Denton and her expertise. My case was not really a win/lose, however, she guided me through the divorce process and made me feel heard and understood. She explained evertything to me and was very responsive when I had wuestions needing to be answered. This was probably the worst time in my entire life and with every phone call and email, I felt that she had my kids' best interests at heart. Meilssa is kind and compassionate, and she is an expert negotiator. She is fee based, so no matter how long it takes, or how many emails/calls the situation requires, I paid a flat rate and knew that she would go the lengths to get the job done. I spent over a year trying to finalize my case, and she was with me every step of the way. I am forever grateful to her and her team for making a harrowing experience manageable. Thanks so much.

I highly recommend Melissa Denton at Ascher & Denton Family Law. While I reflect on the last year, with the changes, challenges, and court battles, I hope that Melissa Denton knows the monumental impact she and her staff made on my family’s lives. Our current reality would look very different right now without her support and guidance. I cannot say enough how grateful I am for her and her team, who were all professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and best of all, personable. They have worked tirelessly with me to fight for the best interests of my family! If you are unsure who to call for matters of family law, call Ascher & Denton; you will not regret it!

I have worked with Melissa for several years (5+) as my family law case keeps returning to court. Melissa and her team have collectively been amazing in helping me win my case time and again. I have always felt heard and appreciated. The team has always been super responsive, even when I have been confused on the process and court filings by opposing counsel, Melissa has always clarified everything for me perfectly. I cannot recommend her enough for getting the job done! Melissa has always been such a powerful, kind, compassionate, and determined attorney to have on my side in making sure things get taken care of and that they are done well. She has helped me win my case each and every time and that has resulted in my child getting the care they need and putting the proper limitations on the other parent to protect my child to the fullest extent. 5/5 stars!

Melissa has been wonderful through such a stressful time she always made me feel better about my situation. She would spend as long as she had to on the phone to explain things to me so i wouldn't be so worried. when i needed to get a hold of her or I emailed her she was very quick about getting back to me. I will definitely use her in the future for any legal matters.

I am pleased to be able to write a review for Melissa Denton. We recently engaged her to represent my brother in a very difficult family law matter involving a CR 60 motion. Her approach to this and her well thought out analysis was impressive. She consistently kept us up to date as to the status of the process. She was able to convince the judge as to the validity of her argument, and it was decided in our favor at the one court appearance. We are enthusiastic to recommend Ms. Denton.
