Excellence in Probate Law, Family Law, Personal Injury Law and Business Litigation

The Ashmore Law Firm, PC has been providing Dallas residents with legal services of the highest quality for many years. "Expertise, Experience, Excellence," that's not just part of our logo, it summarizes who we are.

Expertise - Our attorneys are dedicated to providing the highest quality legal work while maintaining our uncompromising principles. We are accountable to our clients. We provide the expertise, but we see you as a partner in your own case. We will always answer your phone calls and keep you updated.

Experience - The attorneys at The Ashmore Law Firm have more than 100 years of combined legal experience. Our firm was founded by former Probate Judge, Joseph E. Ashmore, Jr. and his son, Gary Ashmore. The firm now employs six attorneys with backgrounds ranging from Probate, Estate Planning and Family Law to Personal Injury and Civil Litigation.

Excellence - At the Ashmore Law Firm every client gets personal attention. We are committed to providing cost-effective services without compromising our clients' needs. While we offer the same high quality services as many larger firms, our firm is small enough that every client gets our personal attention.

"We come to you proposing to give nothing but the highest quality to your moments as they pass"

This phrase captures our philosophy. In fact, that phase is written in our reception area, allowing anyone who walks into our office the ability to know the attitude and approach we have about our clients. We are here to provide you with outstanding, personalized legal expertise so that you can concentrate on living your life, not on dealing with legal issues.

The Ashmore Law Firm offers legal expertise in the following practice areas:

Estate Planning, Wills, and Trusts

You've worked hard, and with proper estate planning, you can preserve your assets for your children and grandchildren. We can help you write a will, form a trust and advise you on the most effective way to protect your assets. We also offer free educational presentations on estate planning, wills and trusts.

Probate

Probate is a process that occurs after someone dies. The probate process involves both paperwork and court appearances and ensures that the deceased person's will is legal and valid, identifies and inventories assets, pays off creditors, and distributes assets according to the terms of the will. Because our principal attorney, Joseph E. Ashmore, Jr. has 12 years of experience as a Probate Judge, we understand the probate law from both sides and can ensure that the process goes smoothly.

Family Law

Our attorneys handle a range of family law matters, including: prenuptial agreements, divorce, and the dissolution of marriages of couples with no children or with adult children. Our lawyers can assist with the distribution of assets, alimony, and spousal support agreements. We work with accountants, counselors and business appraisers to make sure your children are supported and your interests are protected to the greatest extent possible.
