    I know I have given good reviews before, but never have I wished there were more stars to award…read more Curtis was prompt, efficient, and awesomely informative! The last lawyer I went to charged an obscene amount of money to set up a trust when all we really needed was a VERY SIMPLE WILL!!! She didn't tell hubby and I about trusts, didn't tell us what it meant or how to use it... she didn't tell us anything. She just took our money, drew up a trust and said that's it. Neither my husband nor I remember anything being notarized or anything - just a, "We'll take care of that part later." Curtis had a couple folks come in as witnesses, had us show IDs and the whole nine yards. The best part was the INFORMATION! He gave us lots of useful information and never made us feel rushed. He was so helpful I would give him five stars for that. The fact that his price was so reasonable makes me want to award more stars!!! The address they have on here is wrong: 2525 Blueberry Road, Suite 102 Phone: 907-306-9166 His website: http://www.alaskachristianlawyer.com/Attorney/Curtis-W-Patteson.shtml

    In my experience this is not a good spend of your money. I am giving a two star to Curtis…read morePatterson, because I did learn how the attorneys go back and forth and the use of basic law. I was able to apply what I learned and use that knowledge in my case. I was able to take what I learned and apply it by myself. If needing an attorney you're better off with another law firm or representing yourself. This was more of a waste of time and money than anything else. Don't be afraid to pursue what you want in the courts even if it sounds beyond reach. I was able to represent myself after time and get what I wanted. Took guts and a lot of determination to say I can do it better and on my own.

    Things you need to know about Evan:…read more -He's extremely responsive and ensures that you can reach him at any time- including after hours and on weekends  -He's well versed in Alaska family law and can give you realistic expectations for your case while also advocating for your best interest.  -He will not let the opposing party, or the judge, bully you into accepting something that isn't fairly in your best interest.  -He's thorough and detail-oriented. He will pay attention to the nuances of your case and won't allow things to fall through the cracks.  Now, my full review: I found Evan in August 2023 after being blindsided by an unexpected custody modification motion that was based on lies and hurtful accusations. I am in Illinois. My originally custody agreement was created in Alaska, albeit my child had never been in Alaska. Her father filed there for dissolution and was willing to give me full custody so the divorce was uncontested and child custody was wrongfully established in the wrong state. Evan responded to the motion to modify with a request to vacate the original custody order entirely- as it was wrongfully established. The judge denied our motion, but Evan was very confident that his ruling was wrong and offered the option of taking my case to the Supreme Court with a Petition for Review (similar to an appeal). After 10 months of fighting endless motions from the other side (all of which were filled with hurtful lies and damaging accusations), and having a hearing at the Supreme Court, my Petition for Review was granted and my original custody order in Alaska was vacated. My custody case is now in Illinois, the rightful jurisdiction. Throughout this entire time, Evan recieved almost weekly emails from me. Many custody disputes occurred between the opposing party and I. Evan responded to me promptly- including addressing emergencies on the weekends AND over the Thanksgiving holiday. He always gave honest advice and was empathetic to my complex and nerve-wracking situation. Although I have absolutely no legal education, when I brought case law or hypotheticals to his attention he willingly listened and provided further insight. He never made me feel as though I was wasting his time.  When Evan spoke to witnesses and professional advocates who work with my child he was courteous, respectful, and took notes of their concerns. He treated my case as if he was fighting for his own child and understood all of the intricacies involved.  He did all of this, while never meeting me in person. I fought this entire case, with his help, from my home in Illinois. We interacted through the phone and email. Even so, as my contract with Evan comes to a close, I can say with full honesty that Evan is the best lawyer I ever could have asked for. He genuinely cares for his clients. The cases he takes on, he puts 110% effort into. He is honest, professional, well-spoken, and extremely educated in Alaska law. In the unfortunate situation that I need an AK lawyer again in the future, Evan is the ONLY person I'll go to. If any of my friends or family in Alaska need a lawyer, Evan is the ONLY person I'd recommend. If anyone reading this review is wondering if they need to give Evan a call- I'll end my review, right now, so you can start dialing his number. In the midst of a heartbreaking family law case, having Evan by your side will be the best choice you make.

    I feel one of the most important things to consider about this review is that I am not from…read moreAnchorage, nor do I live in the state of Alaska. I had to handle my case roughly 4,000 miles away and I was nervous to say the least. I don't know many people in Anchorage so it wasn't like I could call around and ask friends if they knew anything about family law and take recommendations for lawyers. During one of the most stressful times in my life, I had to rely on google to lead me in the direction of a solid lawyer. I am so thankful that I didn't choose poorly. I cannot stress enough how happy I am with Evan's services. Truly. I called his office, completely unprepared to speak with a lawyer (because they usually don'y answer their own phones), and I told him all about my case. In the same conversation, he told me it would be complicated and that he couldn't guarantee an outcome (as they all say, but really, the outcome could've went either way), but that he would take the case. He worked for our winning outcome. The documents that he created were quality work that has received plenty of praise since. He is personable, communicates like a real person, and replies in a timely manner. He is a busy person, but you'd think he was only working for you with the way he discusses the case like it's his only priority. His efforts show through his work. Like I said before, the case was complicated. I remember going into the hearing and thinking, "no matter what happens, I'm glad I got to work with Evan because he really cared." We won. But I would give this same review regardless. He is good. More than good. Hire him.
