C. Anthony “Tony” Ashford

Partner | Insurance Policyholder Advocate

Tony Ashford brings over 25 years of litigation experience to Ashford DiMartino & Jones. He specializes in representing residential and commercial policyholders in complex disputes involving insurance delay, denial, and underpayment.

The “Insider” Advantage

Unlike many practitioners, Tony began his career working within Special Investigation Units (SIU) for insurance companies. This background gives him a "behind-the-curtain" understanding of the tactics insurers use to avoid paying claims, which he now uses exclusively to help clients recover the compensation they are owed.
