I worked with Jan to help create photography contracts that could be used electronically for my business. Jan is personable and down-to-earth, creating an environment in which you can feel comfortable asking questions about your case. He speaks to you in a way that makes you feel empowered. Jan is also an active member of the community, hosting and attending many events, which makes him in touch with our city and our people. He is definitely someone you want on your team.

I used to be that person who would start to feel queasy and get nervous at the thought of having to reach out to discuss an issue with an attorney. After being introduced to Jan, I now have no fear when a topic comes up in my small business that requires some legal counsel. Jan is EASY to reach, EASY to talk to, and EASY to understand. I appreciate his no fuss approach to dealing with what is almost always an emotional or difficult topic to work through. I have recommended him to many other small business owners who might not feel they have the resources to work with legal counsel, because what I learned was that as a small business, you can't afford NOT to have him on your team. Don't think twice about it, he's the best.

i have used mr jan pierce for several legal matters. he has drafted up several business contracts for me, quickly and properly. his prices are very fair. he is not a price gouger. he is incredibly fair for his services. large or small, he took care of all of my needs, and is easy to get a hold of with very quick responses. couldnt be happier! he is currently my attorney and id use him again in a heartbeat for anything else. great guy!

Jan has worked with me for the last 6 months, in regards to a commercial property I'm selling. He has worked very close with me in keeping in touch and always returning phone calls or messages. He is very honest and fair in his rates, I would highly recommend his services to any of my family or friends. Jan is a very positive person!!

Jan helped me to handle a challenging situation by helping me to understand the legal system, advocating on my behalf, and providing me with informed options. He seemed to readily be free for consultation and was quick to respond to my requests. As an active member in our community, I met Jan shortly after moving to Bay View as he entered the race for Alderman. I had recently graduated and moved leaving behind a condo as rental property. This was successful until the condo association changed their rental practice putting me in a tough position with renters and debt. Jan consulted with me on how to intervene with the association. When my intervention did not work, he stepped in to communicate with the condo's lawyers. Ultimately, when I had to make the tough decision to foreclose, Jan was there to help me through the the process.

My company hired Jan Pierce to represent us in an emotional lawsuit with a client. Not only was Jan efficient but he was effective in representing our position, work ethic, facts, and more importantly the law in which we are all protected. He is honest and compassionate and worked tirelessly on and off the clock to ensure all communication was conveyed and understood by both myself and opposing counsel. He worked as if I were his most important client and that's exactly what you need when legal expertise is needed.

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 involvement. 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'.

My husband and I had a vision for a non profit realistate company that would allow us to give back into the community all while helping those that have low income to rent a home that would be fully remodeled for a price within their bracket. We represented it to Jan and he gave us wise counsel on the matter and was able to help us interprete our thoughts on paper so we could present our vision to the IRS with the language that the IRS would understand. We are happy to say that today we hold our non profit papers that were approved by the IRS. Thanks Jan for helping us. Richard & Sherlena

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.
