Family Law Done Right
Washington State Capitol in Olympia

Welcome to the Ascher & Denton website. Thanks for visiting!

We truly enjoy our work. Fortunately, we have tended to be a tech savvy law firm for decades. Because of this, our transition to working from home and attending all meetings and court hearings via the internet has been fairly smooth. We look forward to meeting you via video chat and hope that you will keep safe as much as you can.

 

Please let us know how we can help you.

 

Since 1990, Ascher & Denton has been providing top quality legal services to families in Thurston County. We focus on helping people through the legal process at the least cost, emotionally and financially.

This focus is not about being cheap, it is about providing the best value and doing things right with long term consequences in mind. Litigation is exhausting and expensive and we avoid wasted time and avoid hurting anyone's feelings as much as possible. It is just the right way to do family law.

We are excited to introduce One Lawyer services, where one lawyer works with both parties for effective, and cost efficient ways to resolve issues.

We look forward to helping you, give us a call at 360-357-8669

We Only Do Family Law
Lawyer Melissa Denton listening

We truly listen, and a clear focus helps us to better serve you.

Many attorneys run screaming rather than practicing in this area of law ... because it takes a special kind of personality (not common among those who become lawyers) to really listen to people who are going through distressing life events.

 

Not only is it vital for us to understand and help you through emotional times, but we have to keep a professional distance from family related problems so we can be a smart outsider who tells you the truth, not just what you want to hear. This kind of helping people is very satisfying work for us.

Our Philosophy

Clean and Simple - We Take The High Road

Ascher & Denton, PLLC was created with some very clear goals in mind. We feel it is vitally important to assist our clients through controversies involving the legal system at the least cost to the client, financially and emotionally.

 

Treating each other and others with respect is paramount. Compassion is important, as is clear thinking and honesty. We believe that inflicting unneeded costs (or pain) on others is a big mistake.

One Lawyer: Smart & Affordable Strategy 

People can be civil and honest while going through divorce.

One Lawyer is an intelligent and cost effective way to resolve a disagreement with a guarantee of no court battles. Both sides get help from one lawyer to learn all of the legal advice either side would have received if they had come in to meet separately with the lawyer.

 

This does not create a conflict of interest because both sides agree to the process in the first place and the attorney is neutral, giving all legal advice and information to both sides at all times.

Directions To Our Office

Since March of 2020, we all work from home and use computers and phones to meet and communicate with you. We can set up video chats that you can access with your smartphone or tablet, or computer. We also can meet you by telephone, as we used to do with folks who were far away.

 

If you need to mail something to us or drop off money or documents, that is still possible when electronic means are not suitable. Our mailing address is still the same. We are right off of the Crosby Blvd exit from Highway 101 before getting to the car dealerships. Turn onto Evergreen Park Drive and then turn right at the AM/PM gas station. We are in the third cul de sac on your left side. (Hwy 101 is zooming by on your right.) On the left side at the end of the cul de sac, we receive documents at Suite A-101 - the first building, first office, and the outside door is around at the front of the building.
 

You can also get here from downtown Olympia, up courthouse hill on the west side of the lake, or come from West Olympia on Cooper Point Drive past the auto mall.
