Angstman Law Office was founded by Myron Angstman in 1977. Myron first came to Bethel as a Public Defender and was admitted to the Alaska Bar in 1974. After three years of working as a Public Defender, Myron opened a private practice.

Myron Angstman has handled about 200 jury trials in rural Alaska, and has won most of them. Included is the largest verdict ever in Bethel, more than nine million dollars in the case of Andrew v. Midwest Folding Table in 2005. He is a member of the American Trial Lawyers and the Alaska Trial Lawyers, as well the American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA) an invitation-only organization for successful trial lawyers. Myron handles criminal and civil cases, and has won a wide variety of cases, including homicides, wrongful death cases, environmental claims, and aviation accidents. Matt Widmer is in his first year of practice but has already shown an aptitude for litigation. His legal writing has been the subject of rave reviews, even from opponents, and he recently shared a victory in his first jury trial with Myron in a misdemeanor. His advocacy earned outright dismissals in two felony cases where he was primary counsel.

Angstman Law Office features a no nonsense approach to its cases. If you are looking for a high priced, slickly dressed attorney who speaks in a language few can understand, look elsewhere. Thousands of rural Alaskan have been happy with the services of Angstman Law Office over the years.
