GREAT ADVOCATE/COUNSELOR

Angela was my second divorce attorney; I had to fire the first one. She salvaged my case, got the process on track, and worked hard to settle out of court. She was able to get me to see fairness in a process each party thinks is inherently unfair. She protected me from me, listened to my ranting, ...and then talked me in off the ledge. Her job was a much client management as it was being a lawyer! Regardless, she did an outstanding job and was a great communicator with me and the opposition. I would recommend her to anyone as their first and best choice for representation during a divorce.

Focused, efficient, just what I needed.

I believe I was told I had a "unique" case. My ex-husband and I had agreed to certain terms prior to meeting with our respective attorneys. Ms. Peacock warned me this was atypical and how to be prepared should one side decide to change their mind, which ultimately did happen. More than once. Ms.... Peacock was very accommodating during these transition periods. Ms. Peacock offered suggestions, and advice and kept my well-being in mind when doing so. It is obvious that Ms. Peacock is a very busy woman, yet, I was never made to feel as though I was being put on the back burner. I was able to contact Ms. Peacock by phone or by email without fail. If she was going to be away from the office for a great period of time, I was notified in advance. I greatly appreciated that. I let Ms. Peacock know at our first meeting that I prefer when people are to the point, blunt and state specifically what they mean to say. She did not disappoint. It was refreshing to hear exactly what I needed to hear and not be given what I wanted to hear to skew my focus. In working with Ms. Peacock, I also had the pleasure of working with her Paralegal, Ms. Jackie Dabney. Ms. Dabney could not be more pleasant or work with greater efficiency. It is apparent to me that they work well together and have much respect for one another. They present themselves as a formidable front when needed and are just as comforting and accommodating when they need to be.

Top Notch Attorney

My wife and I hired Angela to handle our divorce mediation. From our first meeting, Angela was well prepared and professional. She was very accomplished at guiding us to an agreement that worked for both of us. It was apparent that Angela is a very knowledgeable and skilled family attorney. She was v...ery responsive to our questions and requests, and kept in contact with us until our divorce was final. I would highly recommend her for any family law matter.

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.

EXCELLENT LAWYER WHO WILL PROVIDE EXCELLENT RESULTS

I hired Angela to represent me in my divorce. I was referred to her from one of my friends who turned out to be one of her opposing parties. Upon meeting Angela, I felt reassured and at ease. She laid out a detailed strategy from the start, and she had a way of explaining things to me in a way I un...derstood. Angela gets the job done, and she does so effectively. She is a straight-shooter, and she is completely honest about what you can expect during the process. I'd honestly recommend her to anyone. Family cases are difficult to deal with, but when you have someone on your side like Angela, it becomes much more bearable. Angela is kind, compassionate and the voice of reason when my emotions ran high. I will forever be grateful to her.

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."
