Exceptional

I have selected Mr. Pierce to help me determine whether or not I have custody of my child, and what steps I will need to take to bring him home. He is very knowledgeable, and I trust that he will be able to get the answers I need. For any issues I have in the future that may require legal representat...ion I fullly intend to use Mr. Pierce. I highly recommend him to those in need of counsel.

Posted by Twyla | November 21, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Corporate & Incorporation

Quick and efficient solutions for my business.

Kyle worked with us from day one to help write our business plan, draft our incorporation documents and operating agreement, then later identify business efficiency issues and facilitate real estate transactions. In all that, Kyle's work has been quick, thorough, and diligent.

Legal Issues

This is the second time that I have used Kyle to represent me in this matter. The first time I wrote a review which was not a favorable one, after we discussed my case and at that time I was feeling a little better about the situation and he asked me to change the first review. I did, because I ...thought that he truly tried his best the first time. I used Kyle for a CRO hearing only because I knew that he was familiar with my situation and I did call around for other representation, but decided to go with Kyle anyway because he knew that case and I honestly felt that this time would be better. I do not feel like he fought for me knowing that my situation could end up causing me to be sanctioned. I feel like I did more research about what was going on than what he did, especially when he has more available resources than what I did. Now facing the possibility of added time to the CRO situation. He tried to tell me that he provided sound arguments to the case and that he did his best, but ultimately his best was not good enough. He also said that I should not basically dwell on what has already happened and that I should focus more on just finishing out my CRO. That's is a VERY hard pill to swallow because I am facing added time on something that I would have been finished with in two months. My advise would be to anyone that needs an attorney for anything please do not trust in Kyle. If he honestly feels like he fought for me and he did his absolute best. I would hate to actually see what his best is and I fear for his clients now and for future clients to come. Lesson learned from now on I will not use any of these local attorneys, there maybe some good ones out there but Kyle Pierce is not one.

Shanon, I know it’s hard that sound advice isn’t always the easy route, but, as you know, I can't go into specifics here due to legal ethic requirements. I do truly hate that you feel like you had a bad experience. We always work within the facts and law to get the best outcome possible given the circumstances, and your characterization of what happened just simply doesn't match the facts of the situation. I’m happy to continue teaching you about this process. Just give us a call at 256-399-9470 to set something up. -Kyle

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
