Our Mission and Principles

crabbingAt Beard Stacey & Jacobsen, LLP, we believe that our mission is to aggressively and diligently pursue and protect the rights of our clients. In assisting those injured in the maritime industries, we make every attempt to exceed our clients' expectations at every opportunity.  We have found that through hard work, perseverance, creativity, study and teamwork that our success, like that of our clients, is assured. The guiding Principles of our firm consist of:

Reputation - We pride ourselves on aggressive and ethical representation.

Hard Work - We fight insurance companies that have unlimited resources. We know that the unprepared and inexperienced will get trampled. We meet strength with strength. We have the resources to go the distance.

Client/Lawyer Team - We listen to our clients and keep our clients informed and involved.  You hired us. We work for you!

Creativity - No two cases or clients are alike. Each client requires a fresh approach. We "Team Tackle" our cases so that the client obtains the benefit of all views.

Results - We strive to exceed our clients' expectations.  We work to bring your case to a successful conclusion as quickly as possible.

Free Consultation - We do not charge for an initial consultation on your case. Further, we usually work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no fee unless we obtain a recovery.

We at Beard Stacey & Jacobsen, LLP, are fond of our slogan, "Experienced In The Courtroom And On Deck." As you will see on our page of attorney profiles, several of our attorneys have gone to sea and have real life, practical experience in the area of law that we practice. Our lawyers and staff live and work  in Alaska and Washington  and bring an unrivaled depth of experience to your case.  From the fisheries off Washington and Alaska to the cargo transport work in the Bering Sea, our lawyers are familiar with all aspects of maritime operations. We understand our clients' cases from both the practical and legal points of view.
