Thank you Angela!

I hired Angela Peacock to assist me during my divorce. Angela is an excellent lawyer, and I am grateful I hired her. Because my case was complicated, and I anticipated I would be involved in complex litigation, I wanted someone like Angela, who would be fair, smart, and knowledgeable. Angela provi...ded me with her thoughts about my case early on in the process so I could make some well-informed, reasoned, and important decisions. She explained my options, the pros and cons of each option, and she also helped me develop a strategy that aided me in meeting my goals. Finally, when it mattered most in my divorce process, she was extremely well-prepared and handled herself with quick thinking in order to obtain the best possible outcome for me. I can say with confidence that I would hire her again, and she has my highest recommendation.

An attorney you can trust

Angela is hands down the best attorney you could ask for. This was my first time having to go to court and I didn't know what to expect. Angela took the time to explain exactly what to expect and what we could hope for in my situation. She did exactly what she said she was going to do. If I could ...give her 10 stars, I would. I would recommend her to anyone that is going through a messy custody battle. Angela and her staff went out of their way numerous times to help me prepare for court. They are both extremely helpful and friendly. In court, Angela is firm and does not take any nonsense from the other side, she will fight for you. I will be forever grateful to Angela for helping me protect my children.

Great legal representation at a very stressfull time.

After 37 years of marriage, I found myself in need of an excellent family law attorney. I found Angela Peacock, and I am grateful that I did. Angela was not only skilled in applying the law, but she was also skilled in guiding me through various stages of distress and sheer panic in a caring way. A...ngela was always conscientious about telling me the truth; she was careful about not telling me what I wanted to hear. I appreciated her candor, especially because it helped me focus on my goals and it prevented me from incurring unnecessary attorney’s fees. She helped me through some trouble of my own making and she calmly found ways to defuse several difficult issues. Angela stuck with me from start to finish. To every extent possible, Angela argued the merits of my case in pleadings to the court. Angela did not back down when faced by the opposing counsel who played fast and loose with the facts. In many instances Angela calmly, methodically, and quite successfully countered inaccurate information that opposing counsel presented to the Judge. This quality of legal help is not inexpensive, but her billing was fair and accurate. Angela is not just an excellent attorney, but she is a caring and kind person as well. I would recommend Angela to anyone in similar circumstances

Angela is an excellent attorney.

Angela gets things done and treats her clients respectfully. She jumped right in on my case and got things done. Even though my case was difficult, she did not shy away. She helped make the process easier because she always returned my calls and e-mails promptly and fully answered all my questions.... She is very competent, knows the law in her field and tells her clients what to expect - even if it isn't the answer they want to hear. I appreciate that about her. She also did an excellent job predicting what the judge would do. Angela is very mindful of not wasting her clients' money and looks at things from a fiscally intuitive nature, not needlessly running up attorneys' fees. Lastly, I was very impressed with her ability in the courtroom. She did an excellent job presenting the evidence and representing my case. She works very well under pressure, never losing her professional demeanor. Having worked as a paralegal for over 30 years, I was privileged to work closely with many top attorneys in town. I definitely consider Angela to be at the top of the list and recommend her highly. She truly is an attorney you can trust.

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."
