Areas Of Practice

FAMILY DISPUTES
 

    We handle most types of family disputes including divorces and dissolutions, custody and visitation cases, child support problems, and cases involving domestic violence. If you have been served with divorce, custody, or other legal papers, call our office today. There are strict deadlines for responding to legal paperwork and you do not want the courts to rule against you simply because you missed some deadline. If, instead, you are the one who wants to begin the process of a divorce or custody battle, there are some things you should take into account before you actually take that first step. We are here to help you understand these issues and help you navigate through the legal system. Call our office at (907) 222-1996
 

ACCIDENT VICTIMS
 

    In personal injury law there are basically two types of lawyers. There are those who handle cases for the injured victim and those who handle cases for the person or company who caused the injury in the first place. We only represent injured victims, and we don't get paid unless we deliver results.
    Usually, the person or company who caused the injury has insurance, whether it be automobile insurance, home owners insurance, or some other kind of insurance. Many insurance companies promise to defend their policy holders in the event of an accident. What that means is that many personal injury cases are really battles between the injured victim and the other side's insurance company. If you are not prepared to take on a big insurance company all by yourself, we encourage to you call us in Anchorage at (907) 222-1996. If you are outside of Anchorage, please call us toll free at 1-800-684-1996.
    Call us before you talk at length to any insurance company, including your own insurance company if you have a claim with them. Call us before you provide any statements, recorded or otherwise, or sign any medical releases. If you are still getting medical treatment for your injuries then you should focus on getting better and leave the communication with insurance companies to us.
    We handle personal injury cases for victims injured in cars, boats, airplanes, and unsafe premises. We represent victims of dog bite attacks, particularly if the dog has attacked before. We handle slip and fall cases, wrongful death cases, claims against drunk drivers, and many other serious bodily injury claims. If you or someone you know was seriously injured in an accident, call us and make an appointment for an initial consultation. This consultation will be completely confidential and provided at no charge.


WORKERS' COMPENSATION 
 

    Just like with personal injury cases, there are basically two types of lawyers who take workers' compensation cases. There are those who handle cases for the injured worker and those who handle cases for the company that caused the injury in the first place. We handle Alaska workers' compensation cases for seriously injured workers only.
