Client Testimonials
“Ashton Dennis was amazing. He handled my case with extraordinary confidence, integrity, and compassion. Thank you so much Ashton I could not have done this without you and your fantastic team.” -Shelley (AVVO)
“Ashton responds promptly to phone calls and provides legal advice in plain speak.

I highly recommend Ashton as a legal advocate with a proven track record and a heart of gold.” -Walker (AVVO)
“Ashton and his fellow associates at Washington Law Center recently helped me with case and I could ask for a better team of lawyers! I was involved in a fraud case and a large financial institution refused to refund me the funds that were stolen out of my account. I tried fighting this on my own for many months and got nowhere. I even talked to the DA’s office and they said there is nothing I could do. I was hopeless, that’s when I talked to the people at Washington Law Center. They took my case on and fought for me. Their staff was so helpful throughout this process. In the end I got my money back and I cannot thank them enough! They were the voice I needed to stand up against this large institution.” -Brayton D (Google)

“I cannot say enough great things about Ashton Dennis and his team at Washington Law Center! My family was involved in a serious car accident at the fault of a careless driver. It was an extremely traumatizing event as my kids were only 5 months and 4 years old at the time. We were referred to Ashton by a friend and from the day we met him we knew he was going to fight for us and make sure we were 100% taken care of. The WLC team ensured we were paid back for every expense we encountered and handled all the communications with the at fault drivers insurance company. They fought for fair compensation for the pain and suffering that my entire family went through. The way they cared for our cases and especially my kids cases is something that I will always be grateful for! I highly recommend Ashton and his team and appreciate all they did for us!” -Kristina R (Google)
“Ashton was completely awesome. I was involved in a collision where the other driver failed to yield and struck my vehicle, pushing it into an electric pole and totaling it. She admitted fault and was cited. Witnesses at the scene corroborated the events. Despite all this, her insurance company claimed to not have enough info to determine fault! I provided all the info I could including the police report but got absolutely nowhere after numerous calls and email exchanges. After 3 days without transportation I reached out to Ashton and scheduled a next day consultation. We met in his office and I provided details. He then called the insurance company and within minutes, got them to accept liability. I got into a rental the same day and medical and auto adjusters reached out to discuss the claim almost immediately. Ashton didn’t even charge me for his time. He advised me on how to handle the claim and let me do it on my own. Because of his call and advice, the claim was settled quickly and I got everything I asked for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend WLC to anyone. Absolutely top notch service!” -Fred K (Google)
