Wonderful Attorney
She was always quick to respond when she could. She kept me up to date as things went on. Always very prepared. She is very knowledgable and great to work with. She went above and beyond in my eyes. I highly recommend her to anyone who especially needs a great divorce lawyer!
"I represented my brother in a highly emotional case (death/custody) and Carol Lee Peake was the opposing attorney. While representing her client to the fullest extent, she was also compassionate about the situation. With great confident I would easily refer a client to her."
"Over the past decade, I have worked cases with and against Carol in the Dependency courtroom and know her to be an honest, hard-working and effective advocate. I wholeheartedly recommend Carol for contested family law type cases, especially when children's interests are considered."
"I have known Carol for several years and she is ethical, compassionate and prepared in all her cases. She and I have been opposing counsel on multiple child abuse cases and I have always found her to be willing to listen and reason to find a solution for the families we have worked with. She is a zealous advocate while still maintaining her professional courtesy toward other attorneys. I not only would recommend her but would consider using her services myself if needed."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Peake worked well with me on numerous child abuse and child custody issues. Her professionalism is stellar."
"Carol Peake is the hardest working attorney I know. She worked for my firm when she was first admitted to practice law in the State of Florida. She is dedicated, concerned and compassionate. She is an outstanding attorney and person. You want Carol on your side. C. Michael Barnette Daytona Beach, FL"
"I highly recommend Ms. Peake Passman. She provides her clients with the highest quality representation by utilizing a work ethic that is beyond compare, a dedication to ensuring outstanding client contact and a legal ability that enables her to understand complex issues. I will continue to recommend Ms. Peake Passman to family and friends."
