Angela

Angela was both exceptionally competent and a comfort to me during this very difficult time. She got me through the divorce process with such ease; defining all of the legal jargon, helping me with the possible loop holes and gave me a feeling of generally watching out for me. I always felt like I ...was in very good hands with Angela. I never had to wait for an answer to questions, or wonder about the status of my case since she was very responsive to both me and the other attorney. Angela always was prompt to keep me in the loop on what the next stop would be.

For a Nasty Divorce, Get Angela

I spent over a year trying to get a divorce that turned nasty and very contemptuous. My saving grace was having Angela on my side, guiding me through the process and coming out the other end a free woman. Angela was extremely professional even in the face of her incompetent, often non responsive an...d hostile opposing counsel. She is very knowledgeable about the road to divorce and honest about its implications. It was very easy getting advice from Angela and help from her office (Jackie was very helpful when Angela was not available) when I needed it. Although I never want to go through this again and don't wish it on anyone else, if you do need a divorce, I highly recommend Angela as the person to help you get through it.

Compassionate, Intelligent & Tough

During my search for a lawyer, I was initially worried about the large number of positive reviews Ms. Peacock had on this site, since no other attorneys (at the time, anyway) had more than a few reviews, if any. I had no one I could ask for a referral and so I interviewed several attorneys and hoped... to find a good one. Upon meeting with Angela, I came to believe that the rave reviews were deserved, and now having worked with her on the dissolution of my marriage, I am certain she has earned them. I hired Angela to provide full representation for me in my divorce. Angela has been awesome to work with. She provided excellent guidance and representation, and did everything in her power to keep my case moving when my wife tried to stall. Had things become high conflict, I am certain Angela would have prevailed. Both Angela and her paralegal, Jackie, responded promptly to my emails, and did an excellent job of keeping me in the loop. I don't believe either of them wasted a minute while working on my case. Angela helped make a frightening and complicated process a little easier to cope with. If I had to do it over, I would hire her again without hesitation.

Fantastic job

Angela did a wonderful job handling my divorce. She made sure that I understood everything that iI needed to and kept me in the loop of everything going on. She made the whole unpleasant experience of divorce as easy as possible for me and I really appreciated that. I would recommend her to anyone in... need of a divorce lawyer.

The best in Arizona!

My divorce was final about 6 months ago and Angela was my lawyer. I didn't have the money for an attorney when I first filed for the divorce. When things got too confusing and my ex was going to fight for things that I thought were not fair I decided to get a lawyer. I heard wonderful things about An...gela Peacock and gave her a call. When she heard about my situation she took on my case, and the best thing was she did it pro bono! She was very knowledgeable and helpful. She taught me about all of the laws in Arizona about child custody. When we finally went to court the outcome was even better than I had hoped for. If Angela was not my attorney I know things for me and my son would have not been the same. I would definatly recommend Angela!

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."

"Angela is knowledgeable, experienced, assertive without being the sort of lawyers that judges don't like, and cares for her clients. I have referred clients to her when I could not take them on, which is perhaps the highest compliment one can pay to a lawyer. I highly recommend her."

"I endorse this lawyer. Angela is an excellent lawyer and an asset to the legal community. She is my go-to person when I have a question about family law. Angela is very knowledgeable in her practice areas and is devoted to the highest level of representation for her clients. I never hesitate to refer potential clients to Angela when their needs fall outside of my practice area or I have a conflict of interest that prevents me from taking the case. I know that Angela will provide the same high level of service that I would want if I were hiring an attorney, and I am confident that any potential client will be in good hands with Angela."
