His practice focuses on divorce and related family law matters, including child custody, parenting time, child support, alimony, paternity, post-judgment issues, changes of domicile, and marital property division. He represents clients through difficult family disputes while emphasizing strategic planning, careful preparation, and practical decisions that address both immediate legal concerns and longer-term family needs.

Ash earned a B.A. in Business Administration from Michigan State University in 1985 and graduated from Thomas M. Cooley Law School in 1993. During law school, he clerked for Circuit Court Judges Alice Gilbert, Robert Anderson, and Rudy Nichols. Those clerkships placed him close to courtroom decision-making and legal procedure before he entered private practice. After graduation, he established the firm that became Ash & Ash Legal Group and continued developing his litigation experience through court appointments.

Ash combines family law advocacy with attention to the financial issues that commonly shape divorce cases. His work addresses assets, debts, tax considerations, risk assessment, and planning connected to marital property and post-divorce stability. The firm uses financial analysis to help clients understand their economic position and make informed choices during negotiations or litigation. His background in business administration and courtroom work supports a practice centered on organized strategy, realistic planning, and focused representation in contested family matters.
