Chil custody
Ched was demanding, in charge and thorough in a very intense child custody battle. We won! He gave strong testimony up against aggressive spouse and attorney. Ched gets right to the point while showing empathy and compassion. I will use ched in the future if needed, as I am confident with him on my side. Excellent attorney!!! Highly recommend

He Is Amazing We Will Never Hire Anyone Else Other Than Ched Peck
My fiancé had no legal rights or visitation schedule with his youngest son. Our case was rather complicated as well. When we went to Ched it was at the last minute before our hearing and we desperately needed legal help. After leaving his office we felt at ease and confident that he would be able to help us and he did! Not only does my fiancé have rights and visitation he even got more than what's considered standard. There are no words to express how thankful we are for Ched Peck.

Excellent Attorney
Mr Ched Peck is an excellent attorney. If I had not hired him I would have lost my license. He was able to work with the prosecutor and get the charges reduced. I was able to keep my license. This was a positive outcome and I would highly recommend Ched .

Hired Ched to handle my divorce
There were a few bumps in the road but it was to be expected. Ched was able to get my divorce done proficiently. I retained full custody of my children, and was able to keep my ex-wife out of my retirement and she got no alimony..both of which is not an easy thing to accomplish as a male..if youre looking for someone to sugar coat things for you he is not your guy..if youre looking for someone to handle business and tell you how it is hire Ched

Aggressive Criminal Defense Attorney
Mr. Peck represented my assault case and defended my rights in a professional manner exceeding my highest expectations. For someone who has not been through this type of situation before, it can be very unsettling and scary. He made me feel as if I was his only client by keeping me informed, immediately responding to any questions I asked and allowing as much time as needed to insure I completely understood his response. Mr. Peck is exceptionally knowledgeable in the area of criminal defense, produces positive results in an expeditious manner and his fee structure is more than fair. He explained every scenario and was able to get the best deal possible. Thank you Mr. Peck for all your hard work and dedication while defending my case.

An amazing attorney
I shopped around a bit before I ultimately decided to retain Ched Peck as my attorney. After our initial consultation, I knew was the best fit for me for several reasons. First, Ched is aggressive but not unrealistic in his goals. He listened to the pleas of this desperate single mom and created a practical legal plan to get what was best for me and my kids. Also, he is very fair with his costs. He respected that I had certain financial limitations and he worked with me. Ched is reassuring without coddling, which was important to me. Whenever we had to meet with my ex or go to court, he was always there to boost my confidence before and applaud me for my efforts after. He is a well-spoken, hard-working attorney and I highly recommend anyone looking for representation to contact him.

If you are looking for a lawyer that will give that extra work to win Ched Peck is your guy.
I would definitely recommend Mr. Peck he does outstanding work. Not only is he knowledgeable of the laws but as soon as I met him I could tell he is very focused and willing to work harder for me than anyone else I had spoken with. It is hard enough for a father to establish rights but Mr. Peck made the process much less stressful and move a lot faster than I thought possible.

Response from Ched Peck September 18, 2014
Thank you very much. Although most custody cases can take quite a long time to get resolved, some cases do move faster than others. No two cases are the same and as such, rarely are two outcomes identical. Thank you for the kind words. Nothing but the best for you and your daughter in the future.

Knowledgeable and Dependable
I recently went through a dissolution after 5 years of marriage, Ched Peck could not have been more helpful or knowledgeable regarding my situation. He very patiently walked me through the entire process ensuring the best situation for my child and myself. Mr. Peck is extremely personable and goes out of his way to make your life easier through ensuring continual communication, he states when you have your initial meeting that he is available anytime via his cell phone and this is no joke. In addition, Ched Peck went above and beyond and actually delivered a home deed to my house personally so as to ensure it was signed ASAP and could be processed immediately! He then turned around and took care of filing the deed for me. The entire seperation process was an emotional challenge for me and I do not know what I would have done if I did not have such a dependable, knowledgeable lawyer behind me.

Response from Ched Peck September 18, 2014
Thank you for the kind words. Although a divorce and/or custody battle is emotionally draining for all involved, I sincerely hope that making myself available to you 24/7, whether it is via text or calls on my personal cell, or through the office lines, helps take some of the stress off during the most trying of times.

Highly recommended!
I would recommend that if anyone is in need of obtaining a lawyer, to contact Ched Peck. He is very upfront, honest, professional, and knowledgeable about the law. Ched kept me informed every step of the way through my divorce, listened to what I wanted, and then accomplished it. He did an excellent job in the court room; I was highly impressed with him and I will never use another lawyer. He was easy to get in touch with whenever I had a question, and he always returned my calls immediately if he was in court, etc. I am very satisfied with the service that I received from Ched. Anyone looking for a lawyer should give him a call. You will be glad that you did.

An attorney you can trust.
I was going through a divorce and did not know which direction to go. I am a father of two daughters. I needed someone that would treat me as if I was their only client. I contacted Mr. Ched Peck. After my first consultation with Mr. Peck I knew he would be the one to represent me. I felt extremely comfortable and confident that he had my best interest in mind. Mr. Peck is easy to talk to and will respond to your emails or calls in a timely matter. My divorce was not easy but I knew I had someone in court fighting for me and my daughters every need. Mr. Peck is very affordable and I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone going through a divorce.

Incredible straightshooting awesome lawyer for Paternal rights.
Ched represented me for my divorce. Life was pretty awful during the early parts and throughout the process. Ched gave me unflinchingly truthful information and possibilities the whole time. He was frank with me, clearly explained my options, boosted my morale without saying things that weren't so. He didn't sugar coat anything and he worked with me to prioritize the outcomes and processes I needed to be aware of in order to make informed decisions. At the end of the entire mess I ended up with the top 3 things I wanted most: my kids, no alimony, and the ability to move forward without crazy debts. Even when things were horrible for me and I couldn't figure out which way was up; Ched handled the hard stuff and kept me focused. I understand that things are complex and divorces with children are difficult. I understand that not everything works out as someone wants it to. What I liked most about Ched was that he never promised me something that wasn't doable. He always kept me aware of options if things didn't work out as we'd expected. And, and this is huge, he did everything ethically. I swear I wished at times we could be as ruthless and shady as the woman representing my ex. Short term legal battles might have turned out in our favor - maybe. But by keeping us on sound ethical footing regardless of the injustices done to us during the battle; Ched ensured we did nothing that painted us into a corner during appeals or reviews. That assuredly wasn't possible for the ex and her lawyer and was ultimately what resulted in our victories. I've gone into too much detail here I think... but I can't express enough how much I appreciated the legal counsel and practical advice Ched offered. One thing I learned from this entire mess; because I saw it play out with the ex and other people in my network - it is vital you have an attorney you can trust. Having one that behaves in a personally and professionally moral way allows that connection to develop.

Response from Ched Peck September 18, 2014
I very much appreciate the complimentary review. You are absolutely correct to say that no outcome is certain. Be very skeptical of any attorney that promises a certain outcome in a contested divorce or custody case.

Excellent and Trustworthy Lawyer
I would highly recommend Attorney Ched Peck. I hired him for my crimal and child custody case. He was always on time, very knowledgable, always looking for ways to help. He is very caring about you and your situation. He came to my home several times to look into the situation and always kept in contact no matter what time of the day or week/weekend. I could not have asked for a better attorney to help me with my situation and he helped me through everything. He shaired everything about my case with me and let me look at all the information. He also gave me all information that was being filed on my behalf without any problems. The outcome of my case was better than I could have ever asked for and appreciate everything he has done for my family. Thanks Ched Peck for everything and he is highly recommened.

Beware
I retained this attorney for $750 to file paperwork on my behalf in response to a order for visitation from my daughters father. The only changes I requested for Peck submitted we're that my ex returns her at the end of his visitation and that during the week it be every other Wednesday instead of every Wednesday. The day before the final hearing I went into his office to sign the new proposed agreement and Mr. Peck asked if there was anything else I wanted in the proposal. I stated that what we already spoke about was all I previously requested. He handed me a pen and I signed the document. He told me that I didn't need to appear at court and I was relieved that it was almost over. The next day I found out after the judge had accepted and signed off on Pecks proposal that Peck did not make either of the changes that I requested and I was ordered to drive 20 miles twice a week to pick my daughter up from the end of her fathers visitation. I am a full time mother of 4, a full time student and part time employee. I am now facing 1900.00 for reimbursement of my exes attorney fees, $350.00 for contempt of court cost filed by my ex and $1700.00 for another attorney to get me out of the situation that Peck charged me $750 to get me into that I couldn't afford in the first place. Im facing legal issues, utility disconnection and my car is falling apart. Thanks Ched Peck.
