Jan Scott Pierce

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.

Jan came to us as a recommended business expert in the area of minority business certification. Jan is bright and passionate about his field of practice. His knowledge of the processes and his keen ability to help us navigate through it made the certification process completely painless. As a result ...we have used Jan and his expertise on more than one occasion and will do so again in the future as business needs arise.

Jan took the time to listen to our approach to business as well as offer advice on the business formation that made the most sense. I had him help me form an LLC and SCorp for two separate businesses and he made sure they simple and customized. I now have a person to go to for the stuff I don't wan...t to do or don't feel comfortable doing.

My business partner and I worked with Jan to convert our business from a LLC to a nonprofit. Jan had prior experience with applying for nonprofit status, and felt confident about our business being approved. After we shared some details, he filled out the grueling application and made the whole proce...ss far less painful for us than we expected it to be. His rate was very reasonable. He even went above and beyond by continuing to check in with the IRS after our application was taking longer to process. We recently got our approval, and Jan was the first to contact us congratulating us. I highly recommend Jan Pierce.

Jan recently helped my business file a suit and settle for exactly what we thought was a fair outcome. He aimed high, went up against a very aggressive firm and knew exactly what steps to take to get the results we needed. He kept our case from going to federal court by tough, well thought out nego...tiations on our behalf, saving us a ton of money and achieving a settlement we deserved. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking affordable, quality legal assistance for small business.
