A good contract is one nobody has to read again because everyone knows what it says. A bad contract is one you find out about in court. Kaden drafts and reviews the agreements Valley businesses rely on, and he represents clients when the other side will not hold up their end.

Contract disputes
When a customer will not pay, a vendor will not deliver, or a partner walks away from a deal, the first step is a careful read of what was actually agreed to, including emails and texts. Alaska courts enforce written and, in many cases, oral agreements. Kaden's background includes international contract dispute mediation, and his instinct is to resolve disputes efficiently. When that is not possible, he litigates them.
“They broke down the realities of my situation and offered practical, strategic options. Absolute honesty, integrity, and respect for my budget.”
“Responsive, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain each step clearly, which made a stressful situation much easier.”
Contracts questions
Is a text message or email agreement enforceable in Alaska?
Often, yes. A contract needs an offer, acceptance, and consideration; it does not need to be a formal document. Some agreements, such as those for the sale of real property or those that cannot be performed within a year, must be in writing to be enforced.
How much does contract review cost?
Reviewing a standard agreement is usually a flat fee or a small number of hours. Kaden will tell you the cost before starting.
