About Ashley Sharek

As a Personal Family Lawyer, my passion is guiding my clients through the often confusing maze of financial and legal decisions to create plans that ensure the well-being of their families and the accomplishment of cherished family goals. My firm focuses on family protection, wealth preservation, and values-based planning, as well as planning strategies for unmarried couples and divorced individuals. Whether you are married or single, with a traditional family or blended one, just starting out or looking back on a life well-lived, I help my clients craft a plan that achieves their goals for their loved ones today and for years to come.

I graduated from Duquesne University Law School in 2012 and was admitted before the U.S. Tax Court, successfully defending an innocent spousal relief case against the IRS. After graduation, I focused my law practice in the areas of insurance defense, family law and estate planning & administration in downtown Pittsburgh. I opened Sharek Law Office in 2018 to be a trusted advisor for my clients during their lifetimes and I now focus solely on estate planning and elder law, along with small business, and nonprofit formations.

As member of the Elder Counsel, a national organization of trusts and estates attorneys and other legal, tax and business professionals, I am focused on using to sophisticated planning techniques for individuals and families to enhance their lives today and secure their futures tomorrow.

I live in Wexford with my husband, Tim, and our two dogs, Parker and Ella.

Testimonials

“Ashley and her team made this process super easy! The estate planning process can be very intimidating, but she explained terms and processes in a way that helped you truly understand. The Sharek Law team were well organized and available if questions arose. We plan on continuing to utilize Sharek Law’s services and referring others to this top notch practice!” – Michelle D.

“There are more details to the process than I had previously experienced. Your services were very thorough, explaining with more detail when we asked. You made the process and experience more comfortable and your professional experience was evident. All of these gave us a sense of confidence that everything that we needed was being completed. I had put this off for many years and am relieved that our matters are now in order. Thank you” – Ray M.

“Ashley and her team were fantastic, start to finish. From the easy no pressure Wine & Wills meeting to the initial consultation we never felt rushed and she was happy to answer any questions that we had. Being our first will and estate plan, we had lots of questions, some we didn’t know we had. Ashley was happy to provide answers and explanations as well as several examples as to the what, why, and how’s. The process of filling out forms was super easy and follow up was quick. Documents arrived by Ashley’s team in a nice neat packet that is even fire and waterproof! I would highly recommend Ashley and her team to anyone who is looking to do a Will & estate plan.” – Steve L.

“It was personal yet professional, well organized, unhurried yet thorough.” Barbara N.

“Everything was great. The process was clear and everything was explained very clearly and thoroughly. We are very happy with the planning that was done and have a lot of trust in Ashley to handle things well in the future if the need arises.” Sean T.
