Experience in Rural and Off-Road System Communities Throughout Alaska

At Johnson Law, P.C., we understand Alaska – how people live, work, and face risk across its vast and often remote regions. Douglas Johnson, an experienced Alaska personal injury attorney, lives in Southcentral Alaska and has spent much of his life working and participating in subsistence activities throughout the state, including in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta.

His firsthand experience includes hunting caribou in the Arctic, deer in Southeast Alaska, and moose in the Brooks and Alaska Ranges; fishing on the Kuskokwim River; running rivers across Northern and Southcentral Alaska; working offshore near Yakutat; and logging in Southcentral communities. Mr. Johnson understands the realities of life off the road system and the unique challenges Alaskans face.

Mr. Johnson has litigated personal injury and wrongful death cases across Alaska – from Ketchikan to Utqiaġvik (Barrow) – and represents clients from all walks of life. His deep knowledge of Alaska’s communities, industries, and juries allows him to effectively advocate for clients statewide.

Johnson Law, P.C. represents clients across Alaska, including rural and remote communities off the road system. We understand that travel can be difficult and expensive – especially for seriously injured clients.

You don’t have to come to us. If an in-person meeting is needed and you cannot travel, we will come to you. Our firm routinely travels by plane, boat, snowmachine, and other means to reach clients anywhere in Alaska, ensuring access to experienced legal representation when and where it matters most.

 Client Champion

He was very honest. He told us what we could reasonably expect from the auto insurance company, and gave us some good advice on how to make sure that they acted more quickly than they had been.
