Alaska DUI Lawyer
At the Law Office of Gary L. Stapp, I provide comprehensive legal representation throughout the greater Fairbanks region. I understand the social stigmas associated with criminal charges such as drunk driving, as well as the emotional and financial hardships attached to personal injury and wrongful death cases.
As a sole practitioner, I am able to provide significant time and resources to your legal matters. I discuss my clients' cases so that they understand the legal implications and possible consequences. Then I tailor my representation to my clients' unique needs.
Comprehensive Representation
At the Law Office of Gary L. Stapp, I provide extensive litigation and trial representation for my clients in the district and federal courts. I have been practicing law for more than 20 years and possess a strong understanding of how the legal system and judicial system operate. I am committed to helping clients obtain the best possible outcome in their case, whether it be an insurance settlement or a not guilty verdict.
As a Fairbanks criminal law attorney, I prepare every case for trial. I strive to ensure my criminal defense clients receive fair and just treatment from the state. I can review your case from every angle to determine the best course of action. My goal is to minimize your consequences through thorough case preparation and sophisticated defense strategies.
Experienced Insurance Advocate
With more than 20 years of experience, I understand how insurance companies approach litigation and trial. I understand that many people feel their insurance company will protect them in time of crisis. However, insurance companies are businesses and are in business to look out for their profits, not losses.
I prepare all personal injury cases for trial to demonstrate to the insurance company and other party that I am prepared to fight for my clients. However, I also understand that certain situations call for negotiations. I can negotiate a suitable settlement to protect your best interests at every stage of your case. If a settlement isn't in your best interest, I will take your case to trial.
Cost-Effective, Personable Service
As a long-time Alaskan I have strong community ties. I understand that every client's issue is unique, just as every client's financial situation is unique. I can review your case from every angle to help minimize your costs based on your needs.
I also utilize efficient billing software to ensure you are charged appropriately. I am proud to provide legal services to my community. I offer sophisticated representation with the integrity and honesty of a small town lawyer. My reputation for providing effective, personable service is best demonstrated by my extensive involvement with the legal community, including almost daily coordination with other local attorneys.
As a former military JAG officer, I also understand how legal issues can affect military families. I proudly offer my legal services to Alaska's military community.
