About
My client's come to me by word of mouth from other satisfied clients and other lawyers and judges. I represent many lawyers in their divorce cases. I have devoted myself to the areas of Divorce Law, Matrimonial Law, Domestic Relations, and Family Law for my entire law career. I represent men and women just as aggressively. I am a trained mediator, negotiator, and litigator. I have an old fashioned practice in that I am available to my clients 24/7. Everyone gets my cell phone number and they are always welcome to call my office or cell phone, or contact me by text and email. I am a lawyer who returns all calls promptly. You can ALWAYS contact me. I know that client's are especially concerned with the costs of their case so I am extremely sensitive to their concerns and I work hard to keep their legal costs down. I take most cases as FLAT FEE cases where you only pay once. I have represented large cases worth millions and small cases. I work just as hard on both. I make myself available during convenient hours for clients so that they do not have to miss work to come in to see me. I do not have my client's attend court unless it is absolutely necessary so they do not have to miss work needlessly. I believe my job is to educate my client's about the law so that they can make their own informed decisions about their case and about their future. I have the experience, expertise, and reputation in this field to do the best job possible for you and I will not let you down.

Having chosen the incorrect attorney for my divorce, my decision to retain Peggy for Post Decree matters was the best choice I could have made. She was an advocate for me and my children on every level and won a monthly decrease. She is not afraid to go up against old school lawyers. Peggy is no nonsense and very thorough. I highly recommend !
Peggy has been an assertive, knowledgeable, helpful, and compassionate advocate for my case. She has put my children’s and my well being first, making sure we receive the best possible outcome of an unfortunate situation. She is always available to communicate with and gives 100% when speaking with her about your case. She makes sure you are prepared and informed every step of the way. I highly recommend retaining Peggy for her services.
I hired Peggy based on reviews and they were all excellent,She’s always there for me,my texts,email and phone conversations,very reasonable attorney no hidden fees like most attorneys surly will recommend, Thank you Peggy!
I hired Peggy in March of 2021 after having gone through a traumatic 2020 where everything went wrong. The chaos of covid in 2020 and the political climate that changed many lives, to my life-threatening medical condition that required extensive surgery. I met Peggy during one of the lowest points in my life, vulnerable, recovering, and served with divorce papers... the icing on the cake for a tragic year that just kept compounding with bad news. Peggy is the lawyer you want on your side. My case is in progress, and I can honestly say when you speak to her, you will feel the confidence in her voice and the peace of mind you will feel knowing she is on your side and she will tell you. " don't worry, you got me, I'll carry the burden". Divorce is not easy, but when you have Peggy, rest assured that you will have a fighter protecting your rights, explaining clearly what the next steps are, educates you on the law so that you can make the best decision for you. Peggy is reasonable, very fair, and easily accessible when you have a question and need to talk. Peggy answers your phone calls, texts, emails, she does it all herself. You will not be talking to a large firm where many times the lawyers are hard to reach. Peggy runs a personalized operation so rest assured you will not feel lost and left out in the dark. I am very happy with her and I highly recommend her to anyone that needs a dedicated divorce attorney that will advocate for you and protect your rights.
There is not enough space on this review board for me to explain how amazing my experience with Peggy was. I would like to start by saying that she is very professional and handled my case with wisdom, knowledge and care. Peggy was able to take on my case right away. She wasted no time and had an order entered for me that day. Peggy was always there to answer all of my questions and address my concerns. Peggy is an affordable attorney also. You will not feel cheated after everything is said and done. ( Which I have felt with others in the past.) If you are wondering if you should hire Peggy, just do it she is amazing you will not regret your choice. I would give her 10 stars if I could! Thank you so much Peggy for everything you have done and are doing for me and my family.
Peggy is an amazing attorney. She works with you, so she is affordable. She also responds almost anytime and keeps you updated on your case. I’m referring her to all my friends and family Solo custody for father well done. Thank you Ms. Peggy
I first found attorney Raddatz right her on Avvo after reading her excellent 5 star reviews. Peggy has been amazing just like the other reviewers say, very knowledgeable with years of experience. From her first consultation all the way through she has had a excellent handle on things. She has been companionate, caring, communicative and won't back down from a challenge. Peggy keeps you in the loop and I could not have been more happier.
Peggy took on my case in January 2019 and seen my case through to the end in August 2020. Peggy is by far one of the best attorneys I’ve dealt with. She has an outstanding knowledge of family law as well as how to approach judges, GALs and anything in between to really make a good impression. She stood up for me and fought for me in ways I didn’t even expect when the opposing side started to attack. The compassion she showed me and her encouragement that it was all going to work out helped me most on my hardest days of fighting for my kids and their best interest. She is so devoted to you when she takes you on as a client. She will respond to calls, texts, and emails almost immediately if not immediately. She is honest, tough,very thorough, ethical, dedicated and very reasonable financially. I would recommend Peggy to anyone going through a divorce, custody, or both. I am forever grateful for everything Peggy has done for me, my kids, and the way my case turned out!
Peggy is a knowledgeable attorney and has been supportive since taking on my divorce case. I am impressed by her responsiveness when it comes to emails and phone calls; you won’t have to wait more than an hour or 2 to hear back from her. She has been especially compassionate when it comes to navigating parental responsibilities during the pandemic. She came recommended by a friend — and I have recommended her to a couple of friends myself. I highly recommend Peggy for your family law needs!
Hired Peggy for a parental allocation change. Peggy worked with my ex to advance my request to be with my children during COVID. Peggy exhibited great negotiation in order to get me more time. She asks relevant questions and walks through scenarios with you so that you can understand the law. Peggy doesn’t have a team or at least I only worked with her directly. I would have liked to be more structured on meeting times and know her availability as it was hit or miss, Although, I will say, eventually she found time to connect. I got the impression she is working all the time, but I am grateful she did not extort me on billing like other attorneys have. Peggy will get it done and ask to be compensated accordingly, you will not feel like you are paying for every minute or having to meet just to meet. I would definitely recommend Peggy and wish I would have called her when I first did my divorce. She uses negotiation and give and take to work towards the goal. Excellent and effective approach.
