Meet Kimberly H. Ashbach

Attorney at Law

As your attorney, I bring to the relationship a rich and diverse background of legal experience. I graduated with highest honors, “Order of the Coif,” from the College of William and Mary. I then launched my career in the public sector as a law clerk for the Hon. Ronald P. Wertheim. After my clerkship, I entered the United States Department of Justice through its honors program, with responsibility for defending the government against million dollar lawsuits involving claims of environmental exposure to toxic substances.

In private practice at a large Philadelphia law firm, I handled ERISA and employment matters on behalf of clients such as Mack Trucks, Continental Bank, MidLantic Bank, PECO and the City of Reading. These assignments provided me with a broad based exposure to employment issues in both the private and public sectors.

I was an executive working in a small family owned finance and insurance company in the City of Philadelphia for the past 11 years. I was an integral part of the success of the various closely held companies which accrued assets in excess of $100,000,000. I eventually decided that I wanted out of the “family” business to pursue my own career path. While negotiating my buyout package, I tried to resolve my 401k and pension plan but it just seemed to muddy the negotiating waters. I felt confident that I was protected under the Federal laws of ERISA, so I decided to deal with the retirement plans at a later time. I made numerous cordial attempts to rollover my money to only later find that the CEO of the company had no intentions of ever giving me my money (as ridiculous as that may sound) and flat out said so.
