Testimonials
Pierre is highly professional and was instantly enagaged with me from our first meeting. Pierre listened to my concerns and provided forthright, accurate and consistent advice from the outset. Pierre is very knowledge and easily able to relay complex issues in a way that you can understand. He was always available to answer any questions I had, no matter how busy he was, an experience that is relatively uncommon in the industry. Pierre is also extremely personable and listens to you. He is also very well connected. He works very hard to get the outcome you want. If you're after someone who listens empathetically, works hard for you and gets results, then Pierre is the lawyer you want on your side. I honestly and most highly recommend Pierre and Johannessen legal.
