Planning for the Future
A trait that many residents of Alaska share is a distinctly independent nature. We want to be in control of our possessions, money and property. If you have worked your entire life to protect your assets, you probably want to maintain that control for the rest of your life. Longer, if possible.
Working with a lawyer to create an estate plan enables you to do that. At my firm — the Law Office of Curtis W. Patteson, LLC — I help clients prepare for their future. Through strong representation in estate planning and probate matters, I offer clients the security and control they want. I represent clients throughout Anchorage, Alaska, Kenai Peninsula and the Mat-su Valley. Schedule your initial consultation by contacting me online or by calling 907-306-9166.
Estate Planning
Creating an estate plan allows you to maintain control of your estate even after you have died. I work with clients to help them decide how their assets will be distributed after their death and determine who will act on their behalf if they become incapacitated. I draft and review estate planning documents, including:
- Wills
- Powers of attorney
- Living wills
- Health care directives
- Trusts
- Living trusts
- Springing trusts
- Irrevocable trusts
- Guardianships
- Conservatorships
I also work with clients who would like to plan for the succession of their business. I review contracts to make sure they are in line with the long term goals of the business and work with financial advisors to make sure tax matters are correct.

Probate
If you are responsible for probate or estate administration, it is important to work with a lawyer who can give you the counsel you need throughout the process. I help executors and administrators with all aspects of probate, including identifying and distributing debts and assets. Whether you feel overwhelmed and need assistance at every step, or if you just need me to review and assist you with your legal documents, I am here to help. Contact me online or call 907-306-9166 to schedule your appointment.
