The Ashmore Law Firm, P.C., a family-owned Dallas law firm serving clients in family law, estate planning, probate, and probate litigation, has been named a 2026 #1 Featured Provider by Expertise.com in two legal categories.

The firm received recognition in:

  • Expertise.com’s 2026 listing of divorce lawyers serving Garland, Texas
  • Expertise.com’s 2026 listing of probate lawyers serving Lewisville, Texas

The dual recognition reflects the firm’s work across two areas that often affect the same families at different stages of life: divorce and family law and probate and probate litigation.

The Ashmore Law Firm, P.C. announces dual 2026 #1 Featured Provider recognition from Expertise.com for divorce and probate legal services in North Texas.

Recognition Across Two Practice Areas

Divorce, estate planning, and probate matters are often treated as separate legal concerns. In practice, they can overlap in important ways.

A divorce may affect beneficiary designations, estate planning documents, business interests, retirement accounts, trusts, real estate, and plans for children. Probate and estate disputes may also involve blended families, prior marriages, jointly owned property, closely held businesses, and questions about a person’s legal intentions.

The Ashmore Law Firm’s family law and estate planning teams work under one roof, allowing attorneys to identify issues that may extend beyond the immediate legal matter.

“Families often come to us during some of the most difficult transitions of their lives,” said Gary Ashmore, managing attorney for family law. “We are grateful for this recognition because it reflects the work of our entire team and our commitment to helping clients understand their options, protect what matters, and move forward with a clear plan.”

Gary Ashmore represents clients in divorce and family law matters, including complex property division, business ownership, child custody, child support, temporary orders, mediation, and litigation.

“Probate concerns rarely exist in isolation,” said Lori Ashmore Peters, managing attorney for estate planning and probate. “They often involve family relationships, trusts, real estate, business interests, and plans that may have been created years earlier. Our role is to help families understand both the immediate legal issue and the larger picture.”

Lori Ashmore Peters advises clients regarding estate planning, trusts, probate administration, probate litigation, guardianship, and planning for the transfer and protection of family assets.
