Mark Pierce focuses on protecting family wealth, privately held businesses, and generational legacies from financial disruption, litigation exposure, poor estate structuring, and creditor risk. His philosophy is shaped by personal experience after witnessing his own family’s wealth deteriorate through estate taxes, divorce, and inadequate planning shortly before market recovery could have restored long-term value.

Unlike many estate planning attorneys, Mark developed his expertise from both the defensive and offensive sides of asset protection. As a former federal bankruptcy trustee for the District of Colorado, he administered more than 1,000 bankruptcy cases, identifying vulnerable assets and dismantling ineffective protection structures under creditor scrutiny. This experience gives him a practical understanding of how creditors, trustees, regulators, and litigators evaluate financial structures under pressure.

In addition to trust and estate work, he has litigated securities fraud matters, represented clients before the IRS, and built multiple businesses himself — including scaling companies from early-stage operations into multi-million-dollar enterprises before successful exits. His trust structures are designed not only for tax efficiency, but for durability under real-world legal and financial stress scenarios.

Mark Pierce holds a law license in the State of Wyoming and works exclusively from an office in Wyoming. He is not licensed in the District of Columbia and is not licensed by any foreign government.
