Analytical and competitive by nature, I am uniquely suited to the practice of law, and more specifically, litigation. I don’t take lightly the role I play as an advocate. It’s a privilege to work alongside and partner with my clients, supporting their interests and championing their rights in and out of the courtroom.

contentpilot/introduction

Ashley Racette is a litigation attorney who advises clients at all stages of business and contractual disputes. She specializes in the automotive industry, assisting suppliers with various contractual disputes, TRO preliminary injunctions involving breach of contract claims and other emergent industry matters. Ashley also has a passion for working on probate court disputes. From researching and drafting briefs and oral arguments, to interacting with and representing clients in court – Ashley relishes every stage of the litigation and dispute resolution process.

“Being a litigator is exciting, but it also requires a great deal of fortitude – a willingness to mine through mounds of discovery to develop the strategy of a case,” shares Ashley. “Combing through facts and piecing together information like a puzzle to ultimately form a winning defense is incredibly rewarding.”

As one of the most non-lawyerly lawyers you’ll ever meet, Ashley brings sincerity, trust and empathy to her practice. She partners well with her clients and takes their problems on as her own – placing their interests and well-being as top priority.

Ashley earned a Bachelor of Arts in English and a Bachelor of Science in administration of justice from the University of Louisville. She earned her Juris Doctor from Michigan State University College of Law summa cum laude and was the associate editor of the Michigan State Law Review, a member of The Geoffrey Fieger Trial Practice Institute and was awarded the King Scholar Honors Program scholarship and a Jurisprudence Award in Lawyers and Ethics, Regulatory State and Professional Responsibility.
