Peggy Woodard focuses on estate planning, but has a background with family law and business law. She graduated from Northern Arizona University with her Bachelor of Science Degree in Education, University of Phoenix with her Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction, and Arizona Summit Law School with her Juris Doctorate.
Prior to joining Copper Canyon Law, Peggy worked as a solo practitioner in the
areas of estate planning, family law, and business law. She earned the prestigious Cali Award for Excellence as the highest scorer in her class in both Trial Practice and in Business Law. She has also been a small business owner and educator, earning the Economic Teacher of the Year award from the Arizona Council of Economic Education. Using her personal experience and educational expertise in business law, she has served as an advisor for her clients in the creation and compliance of Limited Liability Companies and S-Corporations.
During her years as a solo practitioner, Peggy participated in programs such as
Wills for Heroes creating wills for First Responders, and as an advisor at Fresh
Start Women’s Foundation assisting women with various legal issues. She
enjoyed helping individuals planning for their future for themselves and their
families, so she focused her practice primarily on estate planning.
When not at work, Peggy enjoys spending time with her family, hiking, quilting, and volunteering at Kitchen on the Street, a nonprofit organization providing meals for food-insecure school children.
