Highly Recommended

Angela handled my divorce case, and she did a fantastic job. Angela is extremely knowledgeable about the law, she is very detail-oriented, and she handled communication with the opposing counsel in a professional, but also stern manner. Angela encouraged me to look at the “big picture,” when making... decisions, and she is quick to explain when you should try to settle an issue, or when you should let the judge decide. She made herself readily available for any questions I had and was quick to address any issues as they arose. Angela comes highly recommended.

Worth the piece of mind

To whom it may concern, I hired Angela to represent me in my divorce matter. Based on my experience with Angela, I feel she has an excellent working knowledge of family law issues as evidenced by our initial consultation. Angela is very responsive, she is clear and concise, and she explains yo...ur options to you. I needed an attorney who could help explain things to me. Angela explained the pros and cons of each decision, and she provided me with her suggestions as to the best course of action. When it came to communicating with my ex, she was stern, but professional. This helped my ex and I resolve things quickly and amicably. I feel Angela and her assistant, Stacey, worked hard on my case, and I would definitely recommend Angela and her firm to others who need the guidance of an excellent family law attorney. Thanking you, Abhirup.

Great experience

Once I met with Angela Peacock, I knew she was the attorney for me! The divorce process is stressful, emotionally draining and at times, difficult to understand. However, Angela was able to guide me in the right direction, and she was able to explain the process to me. She was very compassionate a...nd kind, and I always felt she was looking out for my best interests at each stage of the process. Angela was always available to answer my questions, and she still is! Angela truly wants to protect your best interests, and she will fight for you! I highly recommend Angela for family law cases.

Excellent Attorney

I spent two months conducting a search for a proper attorney for my separation/divorce – meeting with over 15 lawyers during that time. I chose Angela Peacock because she is highly competent and gets the job done. I am currently a law student can attest that her knowledge of the law is incredibly tho...rough. Whenever making a strategic decision, she would always analyze the current situation while considering both new and old facts. Not only that, but I was dealing with a hostile ex-spouse so I needed someone to help navigate that. Angela proved to be an excellent strategic thinker, negotiator, and an enterprising settlement-maker. She made complex legal concepts and strategies understandable to an ordinary person. I felt that I knew the potential outcomes of each step we took during my separation and that Angela was always five steps ahead of the other side. Her legal documentation drafting, emails between us the opposing side, communication with the judge, and preparation of settlement letters and negotiations was excellent. Angela fought hard for me and was able to win. Without her help I would have been in deep trouble because I don’t believe other attorneys would have had such a high level of skill and competence. Angela executed under pressure and I came out with a major win. The quality of my life has dramatically improved since putting this separation behind me and I am incredibly happy I found her. I would recommend Angela to my closest family members and anyone else who is seeking a knowledgeable lawyer that gets things done the right way."

newly divorced

I have just experienced one of the most challenging events of my life, a divorce. It was overwhelming, upsetting and expensive. Thankfully, the court has ruled mostly in my favor, and that is a s a direct result of how Angela handled my case. She has the knowledge, experience and compassion to eff...iciently navigate the turbulence. She communicated with me concerning the strategy and likely corse of the case. When I was confused and emotionally upset, she and her staff were able to efficiently calm and reassure me. She responded to my emails and phone calls quickly. She clearly explained what was needed from me and how to proceed throughout the ordeal. Her billing and invoices were well-outlined and explained. My family and I were impressed with her preparedness and presentation at the trial. She was calm, assertive, organized, professional and competent. It is clear the Judge agreed. I chose a different attorney to start my divorce process, and that turned out to be a vivid mistake. I transferred to Angela about 2 months later, which was an effective decision. She immediately helped me with a strategy and actions to recover lost time. A good marriage is a good thing, and a bad marriage is a very bad thing. Life is either too short or too long to live like that. My advice to anyone thinking about divorce, visit with Angela prior to taking any action. She will help you navigate the best strategy for your situation. I hope you'll never need her services, but if you don, you'll be in good hands.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have worked with Angela on many cases. I would be very confident and comfortable referring my family and closest friends to her for their family law and divorce matters. Angela is unique among family lawyers in that she is both very detailed oriented, she will not miss a small detail, but yet at the same time, like all great lawyers, she can see the big picture and long term needs of her clients. Her mastery of these conflicting skills enables her to provide exceptional advice to her clients. I have witnessed her under pressure and she does not crack under pressure. She is calm under fire, keeps a clear and rational head. She cannot be intimidated. She is very understanding to her client's needs and will work hard to make sure her clients are protected. She is a skilled litigator, and a successful negotiator. She will encourage settlement when settlement is the right thing to do. She is compassionate, reasonable and cares greatly about her clients. She is highly respected."
