I strongly recommend the services of Jon Peirce and the Church Rietzke firm

Anyone misfortunate enough to be in an automobile accident needs the services of both an informed and informative lawyer. Jon Peirce is such a lawyer. He handled my case with the utmost diligence and perspicacity and made a difficult, nerve-wracking event relatively easy to deal with. He kept me info...rmed and updated about the particulars of my case in a timely manner. He not only knows what he is talking about, he is able to communicate his knowledge in a clear, comprehensive manner, which I immensely appreciated. He is also a former insurance adjustor, so he knows what is happening on the other side of the fence and can explain the process, which I find quite advantageous. Mr Peirce also recommended an excellent chiropractor who greatly helped me with the healing process. Jon Peirce and the folks at Church Rietzke firm were friendly and tremendously helpful. I cannot recommend their services enough.

I would highly recommend Jon Peirce and the skilled legal team at Church Rietzke, PLLC.

Jon Peirce's representation of my case was done with the highest regard of standards, ethics and due diligence. As a former auto claims adjuster, his knowledge of the law and the insurance industry were integral in obtaining an outcome I was very pleased with. He was very dedicated to the details of ...presentation and communication to me as a client. Jon always kept me updated on the status of my case and his personable nature really made me feel at ease. Jon walked me through the entire process step-by-step and I never felt "out of the loop." My case was rather complicated, yet I had full trust in Jon's ability. You want an attorney who will listen to you and who also has compassion about your case. Thus, if you are ever injured in an automobile collision or other accident, your first call should be to the personal injury lawyers at Church Rietzke, PLLC because they will fight for you. I highly recommend both Jon Peirce and Terry Church. Their entire legal team was top-notch.

  • 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.
