Carol Lee Peake is most professional at all times as well as being compassionate and patient with my case. I highly highly recommend Carol Lee Peake to stand up for her clients . Carol has knowledge about the legal ins and outs and she has always been upfront about my case and keeps me up to date. i only wish i had hired her years ago.

Carol was direct, helpful, explained all information in a direct and informative manner. Carol did what she said she would do and helped us tremendously through a legal process. I'd reccomened her to anyone in the area.

Carol did an amazing job representing me during my divorce. Carol was efficient, knowledgeable and organized. Carol was a great support to me and always gave it to me straight. Carol was available to speak to me directly. I previously had a different female attorney handling my case, whom I could never speak to and she kept putting off my case and did nothing at all in 8 months. Carol picked up my case and had my divorce settled in a matter of weeks. I highly recommend Carol Peake to assist you with your family legal problems. Thank you Carol for all you did for me!!

I hired Carol Peake for a divorce child custody matter. Carol Peake was always on top of the game, providing important details and what to expect. She was always in depth, knew her areas, and always kept me informed and what I needed to do. She fought this case for a long time, making sure she always stayed on top and very complete. I lost my daughter from a scheduled visitation, that she never returned from. Carol took my case, immediately, put a order for pick up of the child for the court and dept of Revenue. We had several court dates, which was hard fought, but Carol knew her laws and I soon was granted my daughter being given back to me. I was put through a investigation because of a lie from my ex spouse, but was cleared of all accusations. Carol fought tooth and nail from day one, she always kept me informed, knowledgeable, and made sure I was clear it will take time but will prevail. We did prevail, won this long court battle, and finally at ease with all of this. My daughter is with me, started counseling, and living life as a child, not having to worry about anything except kid stuff. Me and my ex are now talking to each other and showing our daughter that she is our first priority. Thank you Carol Peake for not only fighting this for so long, but for reassuring me and guiding me in the right direction one step at a time. I consider Carol a great friend now and person, TJ you were always there, the amount of professionalism you both show your clients is remarkable and forever in my heart. Carol and TJ, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me my life back, and my daughters. It was truly an honor and privilege to have had you both in my corner and on my side. God bless you both, and wish the best for both of you. Thank you for everything, and I will never forget all you both have done. THANK YOU!!!

Carol is an experienced, knowledgable and aggressive attorney. I have practiced with her in court for several years and have personally seen the amount of hardwork and dedication that she puts into each of her cases. She can certainly hold her own in highly contested cases and I would highly recommend her legal services

I had one consultation with a different lawyer and was very unimpressed. Then someone mentioned Carol Peake and I went to a consultation with her. Immediately I knew I had the right person, very personable, very knowledgeable and actually seemed to be interested in the details of the case and not just going thru the motions. Communication was always good with her when it came to court time she blew me away with her prowess at navigating the system. I would have been lost without such great representation. Working with her was effortless and I truly appreciate the expertise she brought to the table but also the approachable and friendly manner in which she interacts with clients, you never get the feeling that she doesn't care, and that is important. If I ever need legal counsel in the future, Carol is my only choice.

Attorney Carol Peake is top notch; thorough, intelligent, courteous, informative, experienced and conscientious. Even though I grew up in the legal field, family law is an entirely unique (and sometimes illogical) animal. Emotions run high and children's futures are at stake. It can make you feel like David fighting Goliath. I can honestly say I wouldn't chose any other warrior for my arena. In addition to the description above, I would add patient and brave. She is the real deal. All the qualities you want and need in a Family Law attorney to help you navigate through an unfamiliar, potentially treacherous journey. I will continue to recommend her services to anyone I encounter in need of such. Eternally grateful. SA in Ormond

Carol Lee Peake is an AMAZING attorney; she took the time to explain every facet of my case to me in detail. The support provided by her administrative staff is second to none… Thanks TJ!! My past experience with legal representation really left me with this negative vibe about lawyers and how I always felt as if I was just another dollar sign in their bank account. It always seemed as if other representation would do anything to drag out cases with continuances and cause me to literally drain my savings account. This is not the case with the Law Office of Carol Lee Peake; her team goes above and beyond what you would normally expect from a traditional law firm. Professionalism, excellent customer service, putting clients first, and an 11 year slam dunk history in family law really put this attorney at the top of my list! If you’re looking at this review and wondering if you should call, wonder no more, she is one of the BEST in the county that won’t break the bank.
