Depth and Breadth

Pierce Atwood LLP's roots are as a full-service commercial law firm that develops strategic relationships with its clients, and that tradition continues today. We provide a wide range of legal services to clients throughout New England and beyond. We are committed to total client service and see our role as participating with clients in the solution of problems.

We recognize that the most challenging problems in today’s world are multi-disciplinary in nature and require a team effort. Projects are not solely legal in orientation, but require knowledge from a variety of authorities. We work well with others, build teams, and marshal project support in an efficient manner. This approach—highlighted by strong organizational skills, communication, and defined goals—enables us to achieve the best possible results for our clients.

Wholly committed to economic development, we understand the importance of responsible investment and business growth. Our attorneys routinely handle matters that embrace the myriad issues of complex transactions, including positioning, support, and approval. 

We have a growing international practice, demonstrated by the diverse matters our attorneys have managed in over 50 countries worldwide, including in Central and South America, some several dozen countries in Europe and many in Asia, Australia, and South Africa. Since 1995, we have acted as the primary legal consultant and subcontractor in the U.S. Agency for International Development's multi-year Regulatory Reform and Energy Sector Restructuring Project in Central and Eastern Europe and the Baltics.

We provide a variety of public policy and governmental relations services, whose clients include private businesses, local governments, and non-profit organizations.
