Child Abuse/DV Case Won Victory

I'm a Single Mother/ Nurse who was wrongfully accused of DV/Child abuse due to soaping my daughters mouth. I felt lost and confused most days due to the worry of losing my career, losing my child, and finances. My case lasted from November 2019 to February 2020. When I found Mr. Tetlow, he showed co...mpassion, generosity and gave me hope/faith as well as guidance. Most of all he believed in me and listened to me nor did I felt judged. I have never been in this predicament nor having this kind of charges or being in jail. He picked me up when I needed him and gave me hope to not give up. He is an astounding attorney and goes far beyond for his clients. His team was team oriented and supportive as well. I feel that if I didn't have Mr. Tetlow as my Attorney, I would have lost my case, career and dignity as a whole. Thank you Mr. Tetlow and your team as well. For you have saved my career and shown generosity from you heart. God Bless and forever grateful. I highly recommend this law firm and Mr. Tetlow.

Wally Tetlow is 110% as good as advertised!

I made some mistakes and caught a slew of charges back in 2019. The DA got very excited and piled me up a boatload of overcharging. It was scary and had the potential to end very badly for me. The DA, especially the darn media, and even our judge really seemed to like this as an 'example' case. I... approached the best attorney I knew and when he looked at the paperwork he said "the best advice I can give you with a case like this is to get Wally Tetlow. That's the lawyer you want on this type of case." So I took my lawyer-friend's advice and that's what I did. I retained Wally as my attorney. And my friend was 110% right. It took some time and patience but Wally ultimately delivered me the result and the freedom I needed out of this resolution. I skated on 7 bad-boy charges and walked out with a B misdemeanor and time served. A $150 fine and we were done! We were forced to take a little detour through the court of appeals to spank an over-reaching judge but we won that and even got us a new judge! Wally is clearly an excellent criminal defense attorney. The judge and DA both noted on the record in open court that Wally is widely known and respected throughout Alaska's as one of the states best lawyers. What I liked most about Wally is that he is so friendly, simple, and approachable. He was never an arrogant, condescending ass and he always had time to listen and talk. He even answered his own phone many times. I can't imagine that a lawyer could have done any better for me than Wally did.

DUI charge

Hired Mr. Tetlow to represent me in my 3rd DUI in AK within 10 year period. He was professional and provided great client support service. Reckless Driving, Not a felony and suspended jail time. One of the best lawyers I worked with

Effective and to the point

As a first time offender I had no idea what to expect. Out of the gate he had no promises for me and directed me to be extremely proactive in getting everything done as soon as possible. He was able to find a sliver of evidence that would breach the laws of conduct and the state dismissed the case.... I was extremely lucky to have been referred to him.

Thank you! In this OUI case, the client requested to consult with an attorney via telephone prior to deciding whether to submit to the breath test. The arresting officer listened in on the conversation, recorded the conversation and even interrupted the conversation. The prosecutor agreed the officer interfered with the client's right to counsel and dismissed the OUI charge.

Domestic Violence

First off, let me state that Mr. Tetlow is very straightforward and will not simply tell his clients what they want to hear. I am active duty military and was falsely accused of domestic violence. My 9 year career, livelihood and future was all at risk and through Mr. Tetlows help we were able to hav...e the entire case completely dismissed. This was obviously the most stressful time of my life but I 100% recommend his services and expertise when it comes to protecting your rights and all legal services.
