My Angel

I hired Angela to help me navigate the divorce process. I was very stressed out, and I felt I had no one to turn to until I met with Angela. She was extremely knowledgeable about the laws, especially spousal support, and she guided me throughout the entire process. Angela comforted me and provided... suggestions to help me meet my goals. She was very responsive to my calls and emails, and she took the time to listen to my questions and provide me with her honest feedback. Angela went out of her way to make the situation the best it could be and helped me keep calm when I was upset or worried. She helped prepare me for each hearing, and she was on top of every deadline. In the end, she helped me achieve exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Angela and will use her services again.

I wish I would have found Angela Peacock sooner!

I wish I would have found Angela Peacock sooner! Her knowledge of family law was beyond my expectations as well as her professionalism. She was very adept and punctual at responding to phone calls and emails. She even went out of her way responding on weekends and afterhours to ensure I received t...he answers to my questions and confirmed I understood everything. When meeting on phone calls or in person, she was great on staying on task and keeping track of items that needed to be addressed during the meeting. She provided great feedback regarding items that she had run into in the past with other cases and provided her expert opinion on how she believed things could go, which in some cases was not in our favor. If I was not familiar, or did not understand what was occurring during the case, she made sure that I was well informed of my rights and understood what the consequences were. Before any communication was sent out, she was sure to get my approval prior to it becoming legally binding. I highly recommend Angela Peacock for any child custody or family law issues. Her experience of family law is hard to surpass and her humanity is beyond appreciated during those hard times. Prior to hiring Angela, I was being represented by another who had none of the qualities mentioned above and gravely paid for it. If you decide to hire a different attorney, I strongly suggest you do your homework first.

Smart, Savvy and Incredibly Effective attorney who cares about her clients

As a professional working for a Fortune 50 company, I always seek the most competent professionals especially when my hard earned money and my child’s future are at stake. And I am pleased that Angela far exceeded my expectations. I retained Angela for handling my divorce in order to prevent my ex-...spouse from removing my child from Arizona. She wasted no time and had my ex-spouse served the very next day. During court day, she was very well prepared and also met with me in advance to strategize on my case. During the entirety of the divorce process, Angela had always gone above and beyond to ensure my questions were answered, sometimes even taking calls over the weekend. I found her advice to be straightforward, clear and calming. This was especially important at a time in my life where I found decision making difficult. She seemed very professional and ethical in her dealings with the opposing side--she's a shark when needed but puts her settlement hat on when she can. Given her vast experience in family law, she was able to predict which way the court will rule. This helped in bringing the opposing counsel to the negotiation table instead of going to court which is far more time consuming and expensive. She also did her best to expedite the case to a speedy resolution. I really enjoyed working with her. She genuinely cared and showed interest in me and my child as people and focused on what I wanted rather than me just being another case. When dealing with Angela’s office, I felt that I always received personalized attention, which is very comforting during testing times. I know there may be future battles, and it’s nice to know I have someone who is knowledgeable and professional on my side forever. Its my pleasure to recommend Angela to those who can benefit from her commitment to the practice of family law.

My best intrest first

I’d like to take this opportunity to extend my gratitude to Angela Peacock. Throughout my case Angela always stayed in contact. When I wanted to hide away from the emotionally exhausting endeavor of obtaining a divorce, she handled my case with compassion. Angela is always accessible, knows the law, ...and always looked out for my best interest. She presented the facts to me, gave me time to digest the information, yet allowed me to proceed as I felt best. My case proceeded in a timely manner. The Law office of Angela Peacock was always courteous, and appointments were always on time. Her staff is to also to be commended as they represent h!er and the high standard she sets.

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.

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."
