Pierce was very responsive to phone calls. He kept me informed at each step and was reassuring. I would hire him again and strongly recommend him for both litigation and estate work.

I have relied on Pierson Backes and the Backes & Backes firm for personal and business legal services for many years now. On the personal side, he has helped me through real estate transactions and estate planning. In business, he has recently been guiding me through some thorny contract negotiations. I feel that I am well represented when working with Pierson, more confident and knowledgeable about the issues and the outcomes. Smart, genuine and professional, Pierson listens and learns and then provides sound, unvarnished legal advice. He's compassionate, but he's tough, with a ton of integrity. You want him in your corner.

My husband and I have worked with Backes and Backes for 13 years over several real estate transactions and other projects both personally, and for our small business. Backes and Backes provides careful and thorough counsel, and they are always accessible and available to stay in close touch. We are so grateful for Backes and Backes' representation and our continued relationship with the firm!

I've used Pierce for many years from real estate to personal representation and he has always done exceptional for me. Hes knowledgeable and personable and I now after years of legal help from him consider him my friend. Hes a great person to have on your side although sometimes its hard to hear the truth about the outcome of each particular case, he never withholds truth about the legal system as other attorneys would just to make some profit. For these reasons hes very successful and deserves all the credit from his hard work.This is a lawyer and a man who other attorneys should emulate to improve the justice system but I guess if you did that we wouldn't have a Court system, just easy dispute resolution with fair and reasonable outcomes, always. Thanks P.

Mr. Backes is a exceptional lawyer. When no one wanted to help me with my case because my civil claim amount as under $3000.00, he took my case. He informed me from the start if i win, he win, if we lose, we lose, which was understandable. He kept me informed at all times, whether if it was fax, email and/or phone call. He told me step by step what to except. And most importantly explained to me in detailed the terms and in's and out's of the case. I was suing my car dealership for consumer fraud. Someone at the dealership signed my name on the auto loan contract and refused to give me my down payment back and also took my caraway from me. Mr. Backes won me three times the amount I invested into the car. I am very thankful and blessed to have met a lawyer like him. Not too many lawyers are like him; honest and loyal. Thank you Mr. Backes for everything!!!!!
