Forbes Magazine recently featured The Ashley Law Firm in their Leaders in Law section because of his tireless and determined work on the Pelham Bay toxic landfill case. After fighting the City of New York for decades over the illegal dumping of 1.1 million gallons of toxic waste into the Pelham Bay landfill, Mitchell Ashley finally won justice for the innocent residents who suffered a devastating form of leukemia causing the death of three children. Just last year, the City agreed to a $12 million settlement affording these families some measure of closure and justice after a long legal struggle that started in 1990 with attorney Mitchel Ashley involved from the start.
