How do I find a lawyer in the 907 area code?
The Alaska Bar Association website has a Lawyer Referral Service. You can search by city (Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau) and practice area to find a verified local attorney.
Are "907 Attorneys" more expensive than lawyers in the lower 48 states?
Legal costs in Alaska can be higher due to the specialized nature of the market and travel costs required for rural courts. However, rates in Anchorage are generally comparable to other mid-sized US cities.
Can I hire a 907 attorney if I live outside of Alaska?

Do 907 attorneys handle "Bush Law" or rural Alaska cases?
Many Anchorage-based attorneys travel to rural "Bush" communities for court hearings. However, travel time is usually billed to the client. It is important to ask about travel fees upfront.
