A true professional who knows her stuff!

I retained Ms. Peacock after interviewing three other law firms. My divorce became complicated by a custody battle when my spouse attempted to relocate out of state with my children and take primary custody. Ms. Peacock created a strategy to block this attempt and succeeded in settling this case in... my favor. She is very bright, educated, and hard working. She is one of the most professional people I've worked with, period. Her strategy was flawless. She gets right to the point and executes. Her negotiating skills and conduct in the court room were impressive. Her knowledge of family law impressed me. She was very helpful in giving me options for consideration and making suggestions. She is quite creative! Divorce with children, relocation and custody are all emotionally charged situations. Ms. Peacock did an outstanding job of managing this case from start to finish. She had my best interest at heart and succeeded in getting me a fair settlement. By all means, give Ms. Peacock your consideration. I think you will be impressed.

Smart, educated, and easy to talk to. This lawyer knows her stuff!

From the first time I sat down with Ms Peacock it was obvious she knew what she was doing, what i needed and how to get it. I was in a divorce involving minor children and a bi-polar wife. Angela knew exactly how to go about making sure that there were provisions in the divorce to keep my kids sa...fe and leave me an option to go for full custody later should my ex not take her medication. Always prompt, polite and quick with a joke, she made what was already a rough situation much easier to get through. At no time did I ever feel that she was not in complete control of the situation and on top of what it would take to get this done in a timely manner. In short, divorce is rough, even under the best of circumstances. Having Angela as a lawyer made it infinitely better to go through. I would recommend her first for anyone dealing with such a difficult task.

Client Review

Angela was who I found when I sent the urgent TEXT message, "HELP! Anyone know a GOOD Lawyer?" I met with Angela & was so relieved to find that she was a very gifted attorney. As a working mother of five I thought our communication would be hindered. However, I was very impressed with how she... kept me informed and even took the time to provide definitions, explanations of various legal terms, & how it would affect me & my family. The case was complex as the child custody, parenting plans and finances were all issues. Angela was very organized & knowledgeable about the law as well as a great person to have discussions with. Angela is a "go-getter", straight forward, honest, graceful, dignified and has the professional determination to do the job right. I am thankful for her because she fought for what was best for my family. I will always turn to Angela for future needs & recommend her to all my family & friends.

Client Review

I am happy to write this review on behalf of Ms. Angela Peacock. I was referred to Angela by another attorney who spoke highly of her skill and expertise in handling divorce cases. I could not agree more. My case was fraught will obstacles at every turn. I appreciated her prompt attention to new ...issues, establishing an open relationship, and providing resources and information which allowed me to make informed, appropriate decisions for myself and my family. I found Angela to be extremely easy to communicate with. She was timely in answering emails and voicemails, and listened to all my concerns whether big or small. She warned me of pitfalls that could arise but also advocated for me despite the inevitable resistance. She understood my rights and the law. It really made a difference in whether I gave in or kept on fighting through the proceedings. Divorce, separation, and custody disputes are such a private, emotional journey. I found trusting my counsel was essentia

"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."
