Jan Scott Pierce

Over the last year I have employed Jan for the purchase and development of a commercial property. His expertise is obvious and immediately put me at ease that things regarding the purchase would be handled completely. I put him in touch with my bank and accountants in order to streamline my involveme...nt. He coupled with both easily and things progressed without complication. As I worked on the development of the property he was always available for consultation. He's personable and has lived an adventurous life so conversation is easy interesting when breaking from 'business'.

Jan has been my lawyer for almost a decade. I met him when he was working at a large law firm and he helped my partner and I establish 3 businesses. I was happy when I found out Jan was starting his own law firm, not only because I knew I would get better rates than the large firm (which I did), but... I knew he wouldn't be confided to the archaic rules of the large law firms. I have used Jan the last couple of years to establish a new business, as well as help my family sell an estate property. He always answers the phone, or calls you back within minutes if he's with another client. Even on a Sunday afternoon when he should be enjoying his time with family and friends, he is willing to take a phone call or e-mail to help you out. I highly recommend Jan for anyone looking for an honest lawyer who will look out for your best intentions.

Jan played a pivotal role when I wanted to start a non-profit organization. He met with me, listened to my ideas and supported my vision. He got to work right away and let me know exactly what I needed to do and how to do it. His communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and was r...eadily available for questions and concerns. I have no hesitations about recommending Jan to anyone...friends, family or strangers! Thank you Jan for a job well-done! I couldn't have done it without you!

I hired Jan to set up my small business and to review a business contract for me. He responded to my questions by email quickly and when we met in person, he laid out all the pros and cons of different business structures (e.g., LLC vs. Inc.). Jan clearly understood small business issues well. I f...elt well informed when I chose the business structure that was right for me. Jan has an easy, friendly, and relaxed manner which made him very pleasant to work with. I would definitely recommend him to others.

I am the CEO of a new start-up business and I have been working with Jan for almost 1 year. He has been INVALUABLE in his assistance, advice and support such as providing referrals for other professionals (e.g., accountant, insurance provider) that I have needed in the process of starting my busines...s. His fee has been extremely reasonable and worth every cent. I would recommend Jan without reservation to anyone in the process of starting or thinking about starting a new business. I have no background in business and Jan has taught me so much valuable information- even outside of the specific legal items we have worked on. Jan is very responsive (within less than 24 hours, but typically within several hours) to my emails and phone calls and has gone above and beyond in his role as my business attorney. He is highly intelligent, and very pleasant and easy to work with. I consider him to be an integral part of the success of my new business.
