At The Peck Law Office, our journey began with a simple mission: to provide compassionate and effective legal representation to the residents of Butler, Clermont, Hamilton, and Warren Counties.

Over the years, we have helped countless clients navigate the complexities of divorce, custody disputes, and personal injury cases, always prioritizing their needs and concerns. Our commitment to excellence and integrity has been the cornerstone of our practice, and we continue to build on that legacy every day.

Our office provides clients with a discreet, private, and easy to find location. We are only a few blocks from the Butler County Domestic Relations and Common Pleas Court. Although located in Butler County, our office is conveniently located not only for family law clients residing in Hamilton, West Chester, Fairfield, and Middletown, but also for those residing in neighboring Ohio counties throughout Greater Cincinnati.
IN THE BEGINNING
Attorney Peck began practicing law in Butler County Ohio in 2005. A lifelong resident of the Cincinnati, Ohio area, attorney Peck graduated from St. Xavier High School before attending Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. Coming from a long line of attorneys and judges, Attorney Peck continued his education at the Ohio Northern University College of Law, from which he graduated in 2004.
Upon passing the bar exam, Attorney Peck began practicing as a criminal defense lawyer employed by a highly esteemed West Chester Law Office founded and operated by his Uncle and Cousin.
Becoming a member of the Cincinnati legal community, Attorney Peck joined a number of past, and at the time present, family members in the practice of law. Among them:
John Weld Peck (February 5, 1874 – August 10, 1937) was a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio.
John Weld Peck II (June 23, 1913 – September 7, 1993) was a United States circuit judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit and previously was a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. Prior to his Federal Judicial career, Peck served on the Supreme Court of Ohio and at the time of his death, was the only living Judge in the United States to have served on both the trial and appellate courts in both the state and federal levels. In 1984, the federal office building in Cincinnati was named for Peck. At that time, Peck was one of only two living Americans to have a federal building named after him.
Hiram D. Peck, was a judge of the old Superior Court of Cincinnati and a member of the Ohio Constitution Convention of 1912
EXPERIENCED LEGAL COUNSEL
Attorney Ched H Peck now resides with his family of all girls in West Chester Ohio. When he is not in court or helping clients, Ched enjoys the outdoors, boating, sports, and enjoys taking his children to Disney World, a vacation destination that would have been his last choice before the births of his girls.

Family Law Client - 2019
"Best attorney in Hamilton hands down. Family oriented, understands clients, very trust worthy-you can trust this lawyer to do what you need him to do the best representation in the court room. This attorney you can explain your much needed representation. I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. My needs were put first and was treated very professionally/no judgement rather than a number, I was in situations that Ched Peck knew my intentions without speaking to me and still did what my case needed for my representation. He always remembers text/emails. He went above and beyond and did everything he could to ensure a great outcome. I couldn't have asked for a better law firm or attorney. Thanks!!!"

Divorce and Criminal Defense Client - 2013-2019
"I highly recommend Ched Peck to anybody who is in need of a great lawyer! My daughter is a young single mother of 2 who was getting ready to go through a very scary time in her life. Ched was truthful with her and never sugar coated anything! Ched listened to her concerns and fears and walked her through each of them! He agreed to take my daughter's case, knowing we'd have to make some kind of payment arrangements, with that being said, in doing research of finding a lawyer that's not a common thing! Ched Peck is a good man & lawyer, I'm very thankful he was part of my daughter's journey! Forever gratefulš"

Child Custody and Criminal Defense Client 2014
"Well I only have one thing to say about this firm. If you want superior representation, look no further. I was amazed."
Personal Injury Client - 2015
I had the experience of working with Ched in December of 2015. He was upfront and honest with me. Let me know what to expect and gave me several options, he also let me know the option I did choose would not be a financially wise decision for me. He was willing to be honest and basically take money out of his own pocket by telling me truthfully I would be getting as much as I would pay him and wanted to make sure I understood that clearly. It is a rare trait to find now a days. He is highly respected in the court room and made my life a much easier to this day. I appreciated his honesty and how he was willing to take my calls and not have me speak to someone else in his office. As a business professional myself, I often get asked for referrals, I refer Ched. I trust him enough to put my own reputation on the line

I am going through a divorce and did not know which direction to go. I am a father of two daughters. I needed someone that would treat me as if I was their only client. I contacted the Peck Law office. After my first consultation with Mr. Ched Peck I knew he would be the one to represent me. I felt extremely comfortable and confident that he had my best interest in mind. Mr. Peck is easy to talk to and will respond to your emails or calls in a timely matter. My divorce has not been easy but I knew I had someone in court fighting for me and my daughters every need. The Peck Law office is very affordable and I would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone going through a divorce.
Mr. Peck represented my assault case and defended my rights in a professional manner exceeding my highest expectations. For someone who has not been through this type of situation before, it can be very unsettling and scary. He made me feel as if I was his only client by keeping me informed, immediately responding to any questions I asked and allowing as much time as needed to insure I completely understood his response. Mr. Peck is exceptionally knowledgeable in the area of criminal defense, produces positive results in an expeditious manner and his fee structure is more than fair. He explained every scenario and was able to get the best deal possible.
I shopped around a bit before I ultimately decided to retain Ched Peck as my attorney. After our initial consultation, I knew he was the best fit for me for several reasons. First, Ched is aggressive but not unrealistic in his goals. He listened to the pleas of this desperate single mom and created a practical legal plan to get what was best for me and my kids. Also, he is very fair with his costs. He respected that I had certain financial limitations and he worked with me. Ched is reassuring without coddling, which was important to me. Whenever we had to meet with my ex or go to court, he was always there to boost my confidence before and applaud me for my efforts after. He is a well-spoken, hard-working attorney and I highly recommend anyone looking for representation to contact him.
