Having practiced exclusively as an insurance recovery attorney, Ashley writes and presents frequently on topics concerning insurance coverage, risk management, and bad faith liability. One of her articles was selected for reprint in the “Legal Handbook for Architects, Engineers and Contractors: Issues in Construction and Technology 2018/2019”, part of a five-volume Construction Law treatise published by Thomson/Reuters/West, New York.
