Errors + Billing issues

David seems like and probably is a decent guy outside of the profession...but made erros and 1) tried to charge me to fix an error for a fling that was rejected to not understanding local rules 2)Made a verbal deal with the opposing who took advantage of the deal not being in writing which resulte...d in my being deposed twice and NEVER LANDING A DEPOSITION FROM OPPOSING. The error was compounded with a last-minute attempt for a reprieve that the court rejected and blamed be for not having more diligent counsel..they would not move the schedule. I think people dealing with serious ($$$) cases and especially federal should do their research.

This would appear to be a troll, as the description provided by anonymous is not recognized. If ever there is dissatisfaction by a client, in all likelihood due to a misunderstanding of actual events or circumstances, we are happy to address at the time to be fully transparent and accountable.

Excellent job

I rented a place for massage this February, but the premises, I found latter, was too bad -- the neighbors of this place constantly make much noise. I decided to end the lease, but my building owner didn't want to do so. I had to ask for help from David . In less than two months David told me that th...e lease is successfully terminated and we can just leave it behind. David is very professional in the stuff he does, therefore I highly recommend him.

Legal excellence

David, Richard, and the rest of his staff have been invaluable in assisting with numerous facets of my complicated legal issues. They seamlessly work to ensure my personal and business issues are addressed as professionally as possible. They speak to my other attorneys and business associates to gath...er not only the content, but also the context that can only be garnered personally. I owe them everything and sincerely appreciate their care! I recommend David Pierce, JD, Richard Stinstrom and his staff without reservation!

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.
