Brad is a skilled advocate with experience in both federal and state court. He brings diverse experience, dedication, litigation capabilities, and legal knowledge to each case. He is licensed to practice law in both Alaska and Washington. Brad promises to provide cost-effective legal solutions to everyday people, personally serve the firm’s clients, and listen to each client’s needs to find the right solution.

Brad was born in St. Cloud, Minnesota, where he lived with his family until he graduated from St. Cloud State University. Brad started his professional career as an armor officer in the United States Army in 2004. During his time as an active duty armor officer, Brad deployed to Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom for twenty-four months over two tours. After serving in Iraq the second time, Brad was given the opportunity to command a tank company at Ft. Hood, Texas. Going to law school and becoming a lawyer had been a lifelong dream for Brad. After command, Brad left the active duty Army to attend law and business school at Texas Tech University.

In 2013, Brad accepted a commission as an Air Force attorney and moved to Alaska to continue his military journey.
While serving as an Air Force attorney, Brad had the opportunity to gain invaluable litigation experience as a criminal prosecutor. Brad continued to hone his litigation capabilities by attending courses such as Advance Trial Advocacy Training and Sex Crimes Investigator Training Program. In a very short period, Brad and his family fell in love with Alaska. While living in Alaska, Brad realized that many Alaskans face tough legal challenges that can be solved with the help of an attorney. The problem is that many everyday people cannot afford the services of most attorneys, so Brad opened Carlson Law Group, LLC to help provide legal solutions to everyday people in a cost-effective manner.

Brad has a proven record of obtaining successful results for his clients. As a military prosecutor, Brad’s passion, experience, and training made him a relentless trial attorney while representing the United States, which resulted in securing convictions in over ninety percent of his criminal cases and more than fifty years of jail time for military members convicted of violating the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Brad also worked tirelessly to help military members and dependents resolve a variety of complex legal issues, such as being subject to unfair trade practices, predatory lending, or fighting to uphold their rights under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act. Since starting Carlson Law Group, LLC, Brad has a continued record of success by providing clients with legal solutions in the following areas: criminal appeals, criminal defense, debt collection defense, military divorce, estate planning, and child custody. Moreover, Brad has provided local businesses with cost-effective risk management and litigation solutions.

After completing his active duty military obligation in 2018, Brad returned to Alaska with his family and is now practicing law full-time throughout the state. Brad remains active in the community by serving as a part-time military attorney in the reserve component and being actively involved in many community organizations. Brad has spent his entire adult life serving others, and now he wants to serve you. Thank you for the opportunity to earn your trust and business.

I had a case that was a real stickler. I had my consultation, time went on going through the ropes, dread and worry kept building more and more. Fast forward to the pre-trial, I couldnt help but holding a stupid grin on my face the whole time as I got to witness the team Bradly built around the case; and all my worries went away. My case needed to involve professionals and let me say he hired the best of the best and i was completely blown away. I truly am not one to write reviews but this law group is more than worthy.
If you need the best of the best, may this review be your sign you found the right place.

Jennifer Younger

Carlson Law Group was the right law firm to hire for my case! From the start they were firm, consistent, knowledgeable, honest and trustworthy! Due to changes I ended up working with George and I feel truly honored to have had him sitting next to me during the trial and as the person in my corner!! George is personable, genuine, professional, determined, passionate, and ethical. This case was a child custody case with some conflict and with every curveball George was top notch! From his demeanor, knowledge and experience— George not only brought me peace of mind but proved with focus and true value, you can rise! Once again if you are in need of a law firm that cares and puts their best effort forward, choose Carlson.

We had a great experience with Carlson Law Group. Brad, Heather and Daniel worked tirelessly on our case. The team always answered questions and provided updates in a timely manner. We were never left wondering what was next or what route Brad would take with the case. He was proactive about informing us of every possible option and outcome related to our dispute. Brad and his team represented us with empathy and care. We truly felt that Brad wanted what was in our family's best interest. We're beyond grateful for having Brad and Daniel in the courtroom. Their arguments were sensible and straightforward. They backed up every word with evidence and integrity. We left the courthouse happy with the verdict thanks to Carlson Law Group. We highly recommend working with Brad and his colleagues.

Daniel Florence

The Carlson Law Group provides exceptional representation. They care about you and your family’s needs. Very personable and down to earth. I would highly recommend them for any and all legal matters.

Jennifer McCann

The Carlson Law Group came highly recommended from the Alaska Attorney Referral Service to deal with a stalking issue. I was immediately impressed with the fact that they returned my phone call right away and we were able to quickly get down to business. We were assigned Patrick Phillips as counsel and he devoted his full attention to our concerns. His attention to detail in our preparation was impeccable. During the telephonic hearing he was obviously well prepared and skillful in his presentation, cross examination, and ability to object to opposing counsel when necessary. I give Patrick Phillips and the Carlson Law Group my highest recommendation. Without a doubt they are the BEST legal counsel I have ever had the pleasure of retaining.

Robert Donaldson

Brad and Marshall are excellent attorneys. In my opinion, Carlson Law Group is the best lawyers that I have had. The State brought charges against me for conduct that did not happen the way the State claimed it to have happened. Brad and Marshall listened to my situation, carefully reviewed all of the evidence in my case, drafted motions to have the charges reduced, and worked with the prosecutors to help me achieve an agreement that would allow me to keep my job and support my family. Overall, I am very, very pleased with Carlson Law Group. I highly recommend this law firm!
