Biography

Ashley Roberts focuses her practice on domestic relations and juvenile court matters in Knox and the surrounding counties. Ashley is compassionate and attentive to clients. She understands that resolving legal disputes through negotiation or litigation can present unpredictable and emotional obstacles.

Ashley handles both agreed and contested divorces including complex matters relating to child custody, child support, and military divorces where one or both parties is absent from the state. She also handles post-divorce proceedings, such as modification of parenting plans, modification of child support, and enforcement of final judgments through contempt.

Additionally, Ashley advocates for the rights of children as a Guardian ad Litem in juvenile court. Ashley thoroughly investigates these matters in order to protect the best interests of the children she represents. Through her work as a Guardian ad Litem, Ashley has become extremely competent in dealing with juvenile law.

Ashley also represents parents whose children have been removed from their custody or parents who are at risk of having their children removed. Ashley has experience with cases involving physical abuse, psychological abuse, environmental neglect, sexual abuse, drug exposure, and lack of supervision.
