About Caitlin

Alaskan businesses & individuals trust me to help them with their personal injury, employment, family law, & other legal issues. That's because I return calls and I care about my clients like members of my own family, I have the knowledge to pick a winning strategy, and I am not afraid to take your case to trial. If you need a lawyer to settle a dispute, I am well-qualified, as I'm a trained mediator. Prior to my start in private practice, I worked as an assistant attorney general, a public defender, and a hearing attorney at the Alaska State Commission for Human Rights. I was counsel for tr plaintiffs in landmark Alaska civil rights litigation of Hamby v. Parnell (2014). I helped draft  and pass the Anchorage Equal Rights Ordinance. I represent injured persons, employees, and businesses.
