My name is Guy M. Kerner. The picture to the left is me taken during the summer of 2012. I am the author of this website. I was born and raised in Fairbanks, Alaska. My parents originally homesteaded in the mid 1940s. Other than leaving state to pursue higher education, Alaska has been my home. My office is located in downtown Anchorage and I live in the Government Hill neighborhood. To learn more about me, please review my resume attached to this website.
As an attorney, my primary goal is for you to understand the legal process. Whether your legal issues involve family law, a criminal matter, taxes, or any other legal issue that you may be facing, it is, in my opinion, paramount that you understand the legal process in which you find yourself. Legal proceedings can be very stressful and almost all are unique. By understanding the process you can then make decisions on how you would like to proceed. The role of an attorney is to help you make your decisions and then implement them. There are a multitude of methods to address your legal issue - from court hearings to mediation and settlement. There are also multiple methods to pay for legal services from unbundled, hourly, self-help or a combination of methods.
Please contact me with any of your legal questions. For the most part, I have no problem taking a 10 to 15 minute call on any legal issue for no charge. If I do not know the answer I can usually point you to other resources or other attorneys who can assist you. If your legal issue takes longer than a quick phone call, we would set up an "Intake" appointment that can last an hour or more. More than anything else, remember that knowledge is power. The more you know about your legal issue, the more empowered you will be to solve your legal problem, either on your own or with the assistance of an attorney. I look forward to speaking with you soon.
