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.
