Sandra Williams Peake

Ms. Peake failed to to review any of my materials I summitted to the court. She refused various witnesses to testify after they were sworn in and rejected most of my testimony. In the end I felt unheard and taken advantage of. She minimized every aspect of my case and seemed like she was defending th...e other side from the very beginning. It also took her almost two years to hear my case which put my family in one unpredictable situation after the other. She appeared to be burdened during the duration of trial and put little effort, if any, in understanding the complexity of my matter. I did not find her to be professional nor effective. At one point she decided she could not bothered anymore and hung up on on everyone during a long awaited zoom trial. She also made crude remarks and demanded an apology from the respondent's team. People in her position have a profound duty to serve their community and ensure they come to a proper conclusion as they ultimately have the power to decide on peoples lives and freedoms and in my honest opinion she is not doing her due diligence. She was impartial throughout and it seemed as though she had her mind made up before I even spoke a word.

Treated case like a conveyor belt and ruled based on personal bias or laziness, as though she didn't even hear or read anything. Constantly talked over my attorney and treated her rudely while showing clear favoritism to other side's attorney who was not following rules and constantly overruled our o...bjections "because (other side) was really trying" to answer, while shutting me down for everything/granting everything for opposing counsel. Cut off for a break in the middle of my testimony and then threatened my lawyer if I refused to agree to what she wanted to change she would award attorney fees to the other side. Had tons of evidence admitted on my side, nothing on other side, and she decided to force a change that is harmful to my kids because she had already made up her mind before the case was presented. She seemed to have a problem with me even though I barely got a chance to talk and had evidence to back up everything I was arguing. Got the strong impression it was my gender or appearance that formed her ruling.
