Tetlow Christie, LLC 745 West 4th Avenue, Anchorage, AK 99501

"Several months ago I was super surprised and disconcerted to find myself in a legal situation I had not anticipated and had no experience with. Instant panic and worst-case-scenario thinking ensued and my mind scrambled as to how I was going to handle and fix this (and what if I couldn’t?!). The next thought in between the bad thoughts: James Christie. I grew up in Anchorage and still live here and as anyone who has lived in one place for a long time experiences - there are certain names that come to be known as the go-tos in town should one be in need - whether in regards to a broken leg or an engine repair or the law - there are folks who are known in their respective fields for being: fair to both their clients and co-workers, well-versed and practiced, still curious and passionate about their professions, respected by their colleagues, and absolutely committed to doing right by their clients and always to the best of their abilities. James is one of those go-to folks. My case was probably pretty boring compared to most of what comes across James' desk, but he made me feel like it was his only case. In spite of only a few days notice, by the time we did the run-through of his and opposing counsel’s line of potential questions, it was obvious he couldn’t have been more committed or well-informed as to the particulars of my case. Sure, I was still nervous as you-know-what going into court and having to deal, but the fact of having the representation I did made a huge psychological and emotional difference. Ultimately my case was dismissed because the other side didn’t show up. While ecstatic for that outcome, I have to admit I’m a bit melancholy having missed the for sure mess James would have made of their claims and witness. I’m thankful to have this experience in the past but two take-aways have stayed with me: 1) should I ever need a lawyer in the future there is no doubt I would again retain James Christie and 2) at one point during our prep work I asked James what he liked most about his job. His answer: helping people. Not the money, not the office view, not the courtroom battle. I respect James for being a fabulous lawyer, but it also feels pretty awesome to be able to admire your attorney for being a good person."

"Great representation in a difficult case, and I truly believe he saved my career and reputation. James was always kind, patient, and willing to answer all my questions. I absolutely recommend him to anyone that finds themselves in need of a criminal defense attorney in Alaska. THANK YOU!"

"After a life altering event, I enlisted the help of James Christie for legal services. It was the best decision I could have made. I was looking at a severe sentence that could have impacted the rest of my life. Mr. Christie helped to negotiate a favorable outcome with the prosecution. He treated me with respect and dignity and made the whole horrific process easier to understand for me and my family. He was respectful and kind to both sides of the situation and worked diligently on my behalf with honesty and candor. In the courtroom, James Christie was incredible. He went above and beyond my expectations. His sensitivity and kindness to me and my family during the worst time of our lives is something that I cannot really put into words. I really believe that Mr. Christie gave me a second chance at life and I will be eternally grateful to this man. Even after the sentencing, he continues to respond promptly with any questions I have and with support and encouragement. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Christie to anyone who is facing life altering charges. In my opinion, he is the best representation for criminal defense in the state of Alaska."

"James took his time to listen to what I had to say. He fought back against the MOA attorney when they were being unprofessional after they showed up to my bail hearing unprepared. Ultimately, James was able to get my case dismissed without even having to discuss a trial, quite possibly saving my career. This is a testament to the respect he has rightfully earned, and his meticulous approach. I can't thank him enough, and if you're looking for someone who will stand up for you and your rights, he is your guy. James was the only attorney that I had consulted with that was less focused on getting my retainer fee before even speaking to me, and more focused on helping me. James also stayed under the retainer on my case, and returned the difference in full."

"Mr. Christie is one of the best lawyers to have! He has helped me on my case and it was one that was hard to get out of! He worked hard on my case and I truly appreciate all that he did for me! If there were more stars I'd give him a 50 star! Keep it up Mr. Christie!"
