About the Department

The Department of Law is part of the executive branch of Alaska state government. The attorney general is the principal executive officer of the department, and is appointed by the governor of Alaska. The attorney general serves as the legal advisor for the governor and other state officers, prosecutes all violations of state criminal law, and enforces the consumer protection and unfair trade practices laws. The duties and powers of the attorney general are found in AS 44.23.020.

The Attorney General's Office supports the attorney general as legal advisor to the governor and chief administrator of the three divisions of the Department of Law.

About Seeking Legal Advice

Please note that the Attorney General's Office and Department of Law staff cannot provide legal advice to private citizens or organizations, but only to agencies and employees of the state.

Please contact an attorney if you need legal advice. The Alaska Lawyer Referral Service or your local bar association may be able to assist you in locating a lawyer.

Pro bono legal services include many types of legal services performed without or at a substantially reduced rate of compensation. Rule 6.1 of the Alaska Rules of Professional Conduct states that "[e]very lawyer has a professional responsibility to provide legal services to those unable to pay." Consistent with this rule, the attorney general urges attorneys to give back to the community by providing pro bono legal services. Although providing legal representation or advice to private individuals or entities is outside the scope of the duties of the Department of Law, the department strongly encourages pro bono legal work.

If you need pro bono legal services, visit the Alaska Bar Association's list of pro bono legal service providers.
