Holding the Responsible Party Accountable
A serious injury can disrupt your work, your health, and your finances all at once. When that injury came from someone else's carelessness, Alaska law allows you to seek compensation for the harm. The Law Offices of William R. Satterberg, Jr. has handled civil litigation in Fairbanks since 1982 and represents people who have been hurt through no fault of their own.
We take a litigation-minded approach from the start. Insurance companies tend to offer more when they know a firm is prepared to try the case. We build each claim on evidence and on a clear account of how the injury happened and what it has cost you.
The Kinds of Cases We Take
We handle personal injury matters arising from negligence, including motor vehicle collisions, premises-related injuries, and other accidents caused by another party's failure to use reasonable care. We do not handle workers' compensation claims. If your injury happened on the job, that is a separate system, and we can point you toward the right resource.
What a Client Can Expect
Early on, we focus on understanding your injuries, the treatment you need, and the facts of the incident. We deal with the insurers so you can concentrate on recovering. We explain how Alaska's deadlines and comparative fault rules may affect your case, and we give you honest assessments rather than inflated expectations. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we are prepared to take the matter to court.
