Pierce helped us by making a bad situation less frightening.

From the very beginning of our dealings with Pierce we felt as though we were being heard when we voiced our concerns. This was the first time my company had a need to hire a lawyer. We were very apprehensive to say the least. Pierce explained the legal process and what we needed to do very clearl...y so that we were prepared in court. We will continue to recommend him to everyone we know when they need legal assistance.

Excellent represenation

I highly recommend Mr. Sargeant's services. Mr. Sargeant represented me in a contentious family civil matter, resulting in an excellent conclusion for me. I found him to be professional, timely with updates, conversant with the law, detail oriented, and diplomatic but not afraid to play hardball w...hen appropriate. He is diligent and and takes the time to understand the nuances, and most of all cares about right and wrong, and his client.

Pierce was a good lawyer. He kept me informed, and kept my morale up without making any promises.

Trust Pierce Sargeant

I called many lawyers when I got into trouble with the law. They all wanted to know how I was going to get them there large reserve fee's before they even wanted to talk about my case. When I got a hold of Pierce it was the oppisite. He heard my case out, told me a plan of action, what he could do... for me and then he told me a price. I was in shock not only was this guy really respectible and nice, but his full fee was less then most other lawyers reserve payments. Pierce got to work on my case imediatly and after two grooling months we got the plee agreement that I wanted and then some. I was charged with a underage D.U.I and a minor in possestion of alchol. When I was done working with Pierce I had a reckless driving and one year of unsupervised probation. Thank you Pierce.

Personable, knowledgeable and highly recommended

Mr. Sargeant represented my daughter regarding a traffic ticket and we were extremely satisfied with the outcome. He is very personable and handles himself in the court room as a true professional with respect for all parties. Mr. Sargeant does his research and knows how to use that knowledge at jus...t the right time. I highly recommend William Pierce Sargeant IV.

  • 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.
