Highly Recommend

Jeff did an outstanding job representing our family regarding a felony and misdemeanor charge. The felony charge was eventually lowered to a misdemeanor and this was due to the fact that Jeff was persistent. He was actively engaged with all parties involved including the judge, prosecutor, other at...torney and detective. Jeff is very knowledgeable about the law but more importantly he knows how to drive the case home. Our case was quickly resolved and we are glad it is now behind us. We highly recommend Jeff for any of your legal issues.

DUI

I hired Mr. Pierce for my DUI case and have been extremely satisfied. He met with me the day I called for an appointment and was easy to reach. My court date was set in a timely manner and he got me the results I wanted. As long as I follow my probation I won't have the DUI on my record, which was my... goal.

Professional you can count on

We hired Mr. Pierce to help us through some financial restructuring. He was a complete professional from day one, answering all of our questions. He was always accessible and reassuring through the entire process. We would highly recommend him for all of your legal needs.

ATTORNEY YOU CAN BOND WITH

MR PIERCE HAS REPRESENTED MYSELF AND MY WIFE ON TWO CASES INVOLVING FINANCIAL MATTERS. BOTH CASES WERE HANDLED NICELY AND WERE TIMELY CONCLUDED.

Posted by Dianna | January 18, 2016 | Hired Attorney

Excellent Attorney

My husband and I were in financial difficulties due to circumstances beyond our control. We made an appointment and spoke to Mr. Pierce and decided to file for bankruptcy. Mr. Pierce explained the bankruptcy process to us and answered all of our questions. Mr.Pierce went above and beyond our expec...tations, we highly recommend him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
