Posted by anonymous | May 18, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Sex Crime

Worst attorney in to the Iowa City area.

Sally Peck ripped me off $5,000. she wanted that much money to review my case and after that she said she would have things resolved within four months. After the 4-month. Was up and there was no resolution she became dodgy and very difficult to get a hold of for any kind of conversation. ultimate...ly what happened was whenever I called her office she was not in whenever I left her messages she never called me back and there were days where I called up to nine times a day leaving messages. she told me she was not scared to try to help me and that she was very confident she could help. I hired her to help get me off of the sex offender registry which unfortunately I was placed on there for the rest of my life. So when she gave up and stopped all communication I went to Philip mears and with hardly any effort he got me off the sex offender registry within eight weeks and for only $2,000. Thank you Philip mears you are the best!

awful attorney

This attorney took care of my custody case and while it was settled out of court, I told her to please add to the custody agreement that my child's primary custodial parent not move him out of state until he reaches age 18, she said she did not have to add that to the decree because it is illegal to ...move a child out of state without the other parents permission anyway. Well, fast forward some years my child's primary custodial parent did just that, move him out of state without my consent and absolutely nothing was done in court. I had to hire an attorney to get primary custody of my child and while we proved that his custodial parent moved him out of state without notifying me, nothing was done about the matter due to Sally Peck's lack of competency. I would never recommend this woman, unprofessionalism and incompetent. very hard to get a hold of her or have her call you back. Does not care about clients.

Great Custody Attorney!

Sally always kept me well-informed about my case all the way through the end of trial. She was very good at explaining everything that was going on in a way that I could understand. I followed her advice, and we won at trial!

Horrible lawyer, should have her license revoked.

Just Horrible. She was helping me with child custody back couple years ago, she never kept me informed of any changes or any new information with the judge. There was times she forgot to show up to hearings!! I looked like a complete idiot without my lawyer present and the times she was present, she ...was chewed out by the judge for not sending in any information on time. One time she was not present and sent her Husband in for her! who does that?!! he was just as worse as she was, and was completely careless. I would NEVER recommend this horrible "lawyer" to anyone. this woman should not have a license to practice law. Don't even bother hiring her , she's so unprofessional in every way.

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 1998.

Reprimand issued in IA, 1998

updated on 01/24/2013

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
