Scott has been remarkable to work with over the past 2 years during my case. After having been convicted of 2 DWI's in a short amount of time, I came to this office lost and in dire need of guidance. Scott has since been mentoring me and jumping through hoops to be sure I was safe from jail-time. Every time I've spoken with Scott, he's always very personable and easy to speak to over what's going to happen next with my case. He's helped me through some extremely difficult times during this process and kept me motivated to push forward. I would definitely recommend Scott Pierson to any potential client, he will not let you down.

Mr. Pierson was very professional and took my case very seriously, he was very helpful with making sure I understood everything and walked me through every step of the case. I would highly recommend Mr. Pierson not just for his good track record with cases but his hard work ethic and time he gives his clients.

I had Scott Pierson for case I was falsely accused of a crime and he did everything in his power to see that through to a successful ending and was very fair in his pricing and helped ease my mind throughout the whole process and everything he was telling me ended up to be accurate after trusting him which I’m glad I did because I’m used to someone trying to sell me dreams or be in Cahoots with the opposition. Very good lawyer 10/10 would recommend

I was facing multiple felony charges due to false accusations from an ex wife. Scott and his team managed to negotiate for all charges be dropped. I have a clean record and peace of mind. The results were far better than I imagined or hoped for.

I've hired Scott to take care of two legal matters and both times he was a super attorney. Scott cares very much about all of his clients and will go to ends of the earth to make sure your matter is taken care of. He is beyond professional and will stand by your side every step of the way. He will make sure that you do the things he asks of you and in the long run, it will be most beneficial to you. I would recommend Scott any day. His dedication to his work and clients is beyond measure. If you want the very best of the best, Scott is your man.

I used Scott for exspungement, him and his staff were always very accommodating. At court the day of hearing I was very nervous as the prosecutor was foing his best to prevent my success, Scott went out of his way to make me feel secure and calm, Scott makes it a personal battle he intends to win!!! The price Scott charged i felt was fair and worth every penny!!! Sarah his assistant multiple times responded immediately to calls or emails when i had any concerns, even a few times at early morning (5a.m.) hours. In the court room Scott was more prepared than any attorney I have ever seen and does very well with wording and getting his points understood. He is a beast!!! Highly recommended him!!!

I emailed Scott's firm in February of 2015. At that time I had already plead guilty on a stalking case via text messages to a 21 yr old adult. I knew nothing about the criminal system. I found myself being treated as a child molester which my previous attorney told me would not be the case. I had obsconded my probation and wasn't even living in Missouri at that time. Scott was able to get my warrant withdrawn I came back to Missouri. My probation officer was hell bent on me serving 4 years in prison. Scott"s quick thinking in the courtroom limited me going for only 4 months. After 2 years Scott was able to get me no longer treated as a sex offender. A huge releif because if the state had there way I would have been treated like a sex offender for 3 more years. He also was able to get me my time served credit. So I'll be done w/ my probation in 4 months instead of nearly 3 more years. Through the whole process he kept up to date and did the very best he could with a horrible situation for any attorney to handle. I feel that he truly cared about me as person. After a lot of hardwork on my part, and his my life is much better today than a few years back.
