About Peggy
Peggy Collen practices law in New York under the name Peggy Collen, Lawyer-at-Law. She is admitted to practice in New York and has maintained memberships in both the New York State Bar and the New York City Bar Association since 2003. Those long-standing ties place her in the center of the city’s legal community and give her ready access to professional resources and continuing education.
Collen has built a practice characterized by steady, client-centered work. She set up her office to serve clients who need counsel on matters governed by New York law. Over time she has developed a rhythm that suits a solo practitioner: responding directly to client concerns, handling correspondence and court filings, and coordinating outside specialists when cases require additional expertise.
Her membership in the New York State Bar and the New York City Bar Association has been continuous since 2003. That continuity has allowed her to stay current on changes in local rules and court procedures. It also means she has been part of professional networks that provide updates and training aimed at practicing lawyers. She draws on those networks when preparing for hearings or assembling litigation teams.
Clients who come to Collen generally find a pragmatic approach. She works through issues in clear terms. She prepares written materials, negotiates when settlement is possible, and moves matters forward in court when necessary. Her practice methods emphasize clarity and responsiveness. She tends to prioritize direct communication so clients know where a matter stands and what options are available.
Because she operates under her own name, Collen manages the business and legal sides of her practice. That arrangement makes her accessible to clients who prefer a direct relationship with the attorney handling their matter. It also means she is the principal point of contact for strategy, billing and case management.
Today Peggy Collen continues to practice law in New York through Peggy Collen, Lawyer-at-Law. She handles legal matters arising under New York law and provides counsel and representation to individuals and organizations in the state.
