ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm AshLeigh
WHERE I COME FROM
A Huntsville native, AshLeigh earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Alabama and her law degree from Cumberland School of Law at Samford University. AshLeigh and her family are members of Trinity United Methodist Church, also in Homewood. She lives in the Birmingham area with her husband, Jonathan, and their daughter Aria.
A THRIVING CAREER
AshLeigh Meyer Dunham is a distinguished legal professional with a career rooted in service to Alabama families. She serves as a Referee in Jefferson County’s Juvenile Court, where she adjudicates sensitive family and juvenile matters with fairness, clarity, and compassion. Her work creates stability for children and families facing crisis, drawing on years of experience handling complex legal issues with a steady, principled approach.
AshLeigh is also a practicing Fertility Attorney at Magic City Fertility Law. Her expertise in this area is deeply personal: AshLeigh and her husband welcomed their daughter through IVF, but had to leave Alabama to access the care they needed to start their family. As an attorney, AshLeigh helps individuals and couples navigate the legal complexities of assisted reproduction so they can start and grow their families too. That experience fuels her public advocacy for legal protections for families seeking fertility treatment. She believes no Alabamian should have to leave home to start a family.
AshLeigh is running for a seat on the Alabama Supreme Court to bring a grounded, family-centered perspective to the state’s highest court. With experience across family and juvenile law, she is uniquely prepared to ensure that the court serves all Alabamians with integrity and empathy.
POLICY PLATFORMS
First Amendment
Under the First Amendment, parents should have the right to parent their own children whether it is the books they read or the church they attend.
Reproductive Healthcare
I believe that reproductive healthcare decisions should be between a family and their doctors. We need to keep our legislators from being doctors, and our doctors from being lawyers.
Second Amendment
As a Mother protecting children is my primary responsibility. The Second Amended allows the right to bear arms, however, school shootings have gotten out of hand in the United States. There are middle of the road solutions we can take.
