Ashley Shurtleff

ATTORNEY

BIOGRAPHY

Ashley has a diverse array of professional experiences that provide her with a unique perspective, allowing her to offer unparalleled service to her clients. Although she always knew she wanted to practice law, she sold power tools for Black & Decker and DeWalt right out of college. After graduating from law school and earning her J.D. from Baylor School of Law, where she graduated summa cum laude, Ashley spent time at a law firm in downtown Dallas practicing corporate and securities law and gaining valuable experience in the business law arena.

Several years into her career, Ashley made the call to pause her legal career and stay at home with her children full-time. During that time, she participated in a wide range of leadership positions within her church and neighborhood schools and gained a wealth of wisdom that comes with putting the needs of others before your own. She still coordinates a mentoring program at a nearby Title I school and serves in various other leadership positions in the community.

The pull to the law has always been strong for Ashley, so she began another chapter in her life representing clients in the construction industry in Dallas. Her expertise includes corporate formation and ongoing corporate governance issues, including the maintenance of records. She is also knowledgeable with drafting and reviewing contracts, agreements, and ancillary documents related to an array of corporate matters. From selling power tools to caring for people of all ages in her community, Ashley has walked a path that allows her to bring wisdom, intuition, and dedication to her clients.
