Peggy saved my daughter from torment

I would recommend Peggy Bittick for any family matter. I hired Ms. Bittick to represent my daughter in a very tormenting matter.The case involved convicted abuse commited by my daughter's father. I had previously hired another attorney, but he was very uninterested in the welfare of my duaghter. ...Peggy worked the case with great compassion for my daughter and did an excellent job of handling the case. It didn't matter what the situation was, Ms. Bittick was professional and up to date on the laws that dealt with every detail. Without Ms. Bittick, my daughter would still be living in torment. I praise Peggy Bittick for a job VERY WELL DONE!

Please don't use her - you will waste time and money!

We hired Peggy as a family lawyer for our custody revision case that was disputed; so it was really a custody case. We hired her solely on the advice of someone that testified on a couple of her cases as an expert. Everything that the other reviews said (except the good one) is true. She promised ...us the world, said she would hit the case hard, get the amicus to do his job as soon as he was appointed, and get this case settled. Well, the only thing she did was waste our time and money. As soon as she was hired, we started noticing things were not being done, we wouldn't hear anything; we would have to ask questions because we weren't being kept abreast of any information. Also, she didn't realize in our court (Harris County, 310th) that she had to do certain procedures and the case got denied. So that set us back 2 months! Then, we really started not getting any responses - but we were SURE being billed for every e-mail and phone call we made to see if she was actually doing her job. When we finally started looking at getting a new lawyer, we found these reviews and we knew we had to fire her. She is terrible as a lawyer and a professional as well. We lost $2300 of retainer because we had to get someone else - please don't go to her. Some of our lessons learned were 1) READ THE REVIEWS & write them for others to get the benefit of your experience 2) Make sure your lawyer is practicing in just one type of law practice - Peggy practices in all kinds (Jack of all trades, master of NONE) 3) Make sure they are board-certified in the type of case you need 4) If possible, especially in a family law case, make sure they are familiar with your district and get one in your area 5) looking back (lessons learned), people that recommend lawyers must know not only how a person performs in court, but how they perform behind the scenes to get the case ready and heard.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2008.

Public Reprimand issued in TX, 2008

updated on 06/14/2011

Public reprimand means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State gives the lawyer a public reprimand in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.

Peggy’s comment:

“A Texas Lotto winner gifted me the balance of his retainer which was a large sum of money in a case where I obtained for him custody of his son and terminated his high child support obligation. After confirming the gift, I accepted it partly but I carried it as a credit for him, in case he needed future legal work. Years later, he wanted his money back. After obtaining advice from peers and others I respect, I fought the grievance. For more information, please contact PSB directly: 2814853500.”
