About

After more than a decade in the United States Army I made the decision to leave the military and pursue a new career in the law.  I completed my undergraduate work at the University of Alaska Anchorage and traveled with my wife and two small children to Macon, Georgia.  I graduated cum laude from Merrcer University's Walter F. George School of Law in 1999. Following my graduation from Mercer, I accepted a position with a top national firm in their Atlanta office, focusing on product liability and complex commercial litigation.  Over the course of five years at this firm I represented pharmaceutical manufacturers, contruction product manufacturers, and commercial enterprises involved in high stakes litigation. I represented these clients from the initial pleadings, through the discovery process, the hearing process, the mediation process, and the trial process.  During this period I learned how to properly evaluate cases and advise clients about the strengths of their case and the risks associated with their litigation.  I learned to handle matters efficiently and to pursue the client's goals by involving the client in each important decision, working with the other attorneys in the case when possible, and ardently and aggressively opposing those attorneys when my clients' needs demanded it.For the full five years in Atlanta I also volunteered 200-300 hours per year with the Atlanta Family Court as a Guardian Ad Litem, representing the best interests of the child in divorces and other custody disputes.In 2004 we returned to Alaska, where we had spent significant time over the past  20 years enjoying the outdoors and the smaller community.  I soon was accepted into ownership of one of the oldest firms in the state, focusing my practice on insurance defense work for Alaskans, commercial litigation, and the expansion of my family law practice.  In this practice I have spent much more time working with individuals, rather than large institutional clients and I have found my sensitivity to my clients' needs - expressed and unexpressed - has helped me provide effective and valued service to those individuals who placed their faith in me.

I have had 6 different lawyers, 10 consultations and finally found Mr. White. I am a detailed client with high standards and expectations. Mr. White exceeded those expectations with timely, accurate, seasoned guidance and representation. He is firm, fair, thorough, and efficient. He has developed an effective team that works together and maximizes results. Could not recommend higher.

I came to know about Mr. Jimmy White through Avvo. I was in a difficult situation with no money and nowhere to go. I got Jimmy's mobile number from this site and gave him a call. His voice was so gentle and kind that I felt heaven (not exaggerating even a word). He took my case even when he knew that I may not be able to pay him at the end. My ex-husband was flabbergasted after he came to know that Jimmy was my attorney. He couldn't believe how such a reputed attorney could take my case when my ex left me penniless. My ex initially tried to scare me off then started threatening me through people and later when he realized that I was constantly consulting Jimmy, he wanted to reconcile with me. Mr. White can understand people very well. I cannot forget those words, when I first started earning, Jimmy told me "you first eat and be healthy and pay me later". I can't believe anyone attorney had ever said or will ever say that to their client. Mr. White is very prompt with his emails and replies even during weekends. I had emails from him really early in the mornings and even late night. His team is also very good but he is exceptional. My ex-husband planned everything so well that entire situation was against me. It was only Jimmy who turned the situation such that I had roof over my head and food in my plate- when I was not allowed to work. I am based in Fairbanks and Jimmy attended the case over telephone. Jimmy is very reputed attorney and every time the judge would talk to Jimmy, I could see a smile on the judge's face. I can go pages after pages praising this gentleman. I highly recommend him to everyone!

If you need an attorney for anything Jimmy White is your man. Jimmy recently represented me on a family custody case, and was worth every penny. Legal fees can be quite expensive, attorneys are not cheap. Make sure you hire the right one, get the best bang for your buck. You want someone like Jimmy that will always be available, always have an ace up their sleeve, and always be in your corner. Jimmy was/is knowledgeable, resourceful, and approachable. Jimmy got me everything i asked for even against the most formidable legal team. With Mr. White by my side i always felt confident, included, and informed every step of the way. I had to fight tooth and nail, and Jimmy was by my side the entire time. As great as it was to have Jimmy sitting next to me in a courtroom, i think it would be a total nightmare to go against him in a court of law. A true professional, and a sharpshooter, he was never flustered, or unprepared. To the contrary, he always had the right answer, was/is well spoken and often make the opposing attorney look foolish or amateur. I would recommend Councilor Jimmy E. White to anyone i know. The outcome of hiring Jimmy as my attorney was tears of joy after a long hard fought legal battle. I pray no-one has to go through what i went threw. But if you do, best to have jimmy by your side.

I just wanted to take a moment to let you know of my experience with Mr. White and his team. I wanted to take the time to write and let you know that I am very pleased with the performance, support, professionalism and determination of Mr. White & his team. Throughout my divorce, he was always very quick to respond, made himself available during times that most would consider after hours and always patient in explaining the status and updates. Upon settlement of my divorce case, I felt that it was a fair settlement and that Mr. White did everything in his power to ensure this process had truly been as smooth and comfortable as possible. Every step along the way, I was kept informed of the progress, promises were maintained, I could not have asked for more!

I was given Jimmy's name from a friend and decided to retain his services in a custody related matter and I'm SO happy that I did! He and his staff showed me Amazing communication and organization at all times. They made me feel more at ease during a stressful time. From the beginning, I felt I was important to him and he really cared about me and the situation I was in. He gave me sound, intelligent advice and was honest with me about all of the facts presented and what my options were. He paid very close attention to details and was always prompt in answering my questions and concerns. I truly appreciate the service he provided and would ask him for help if ever needed again! Extremely impressed! Thank you Jimmy!

Jimmy White is an honest and hard working individual. I was lucky enough to get Jimmy to represent my in my divorce case. Being the under dog from the get go, (my ex held all our assets, and much higher income than me, and false accusations from my ex putting my custody of our children at risk) Jimmy kept me grounded. I was being bullied, and harassed by my ex for two years. Jimmy not only was patient with me and the system, but he always came across as a very intelligent and class act kind of man. My ex lied in court, lied about my integrity, called me horrible names. Jimmy kept me focused and went above and beyond as an attorney. I consider Jimmy a friend. Thank you Jimmy!

Last year, I was blind sighted with divorce papers while visiting my parents in New Jersey. At that time, I was unemployed with a toddler in my care. My ex-husband was making unreasonable demands. Jimmy helped assure me that there were case logs in place that would make it almost impossible for a judge to rule in his favor. Jimmy responded effectively to several motions that were filed against me. I had a lingering fear that my daughter would be taken from me, or that I would be made to return to Alaska. This did not happen, of course. Towards the end, Jimmy worked toward revising a parenting plan that would work for both me and my ex husband. The trial was relatively brief and we were able to end on an amicable note. I received full physical custody as Jimmy had anticipated, as well as shared legal custody. My ex-husband was made to bear some of my legal expenses. I find that Jimmy is very approachable and has a pleasant demeanor. It was very easy to get a hold of him whenever I called. As I've been recently employed and earning very little, Jimmy helped me greatly with my bill, and I really appreciate that. I wholeheartedly recommend Jimmy.

Two years ago, my husband filed for divorce. I started looking for an attorney. I talked to a few, some of them were shady, but most of them were fine. I didn't feel compatible or comfortable with them. I wanted an honest attorney to do it the right way, so I wouldn't feel bitter later in my life. I read Jimmy White's impressive reviews online. The web says he is a super lawyer. I went to see Jimmy...wow...! The super lawyer is really, really different than the others. Confidential, honest, optimistic. After five minutes, I knew I found the perfect lawyer I wanted to represent my case. His approach with the case was handled professionally and every step taken was thought out throughly for an ultimate final victory. Jimmy cared about my opinions and feelings. During the whole process, Jimmy and his team were very efficient, detailed, and thoughtful as they replied to all phone calls and emails in a timely manner. At the end of my divorce case, it turned 180 degrees from a very bad situation into a good result. I am happy with my divorce case closure. Going through a divorce is a very tough period in life. But if you have an honest, wise, thoughtful, powerful, hardworking lawyer, it will make it much easier and will have a better result at the end of the case. So, we can all go on for a better life or a new start!

Rarely trusting reviews, I was reluctant to believe these ratings. Nonetheless, I phoned Jimmy, on a Saturday, expecting to leave a message. He answered. If I ever doubted there was a god my experience with Jimmy would certainly challenge that. My case goes to trial in a few more days. Win or lose my opinion will not change. I have worked with many lawyers in the past for various things. NEVER, have I seen the heart that this man has. He's like a big brother who loves you to pieces and wants truth and justice to prevail. At the same time, he has been fearless. I've thus far paid him less than any attorney I've worked with but he's earned more than all of them combined. After hiring him, even opposing counsel was concerned as to if he liked her. I have several attorneys who lease space in my same office building and several clients who he represents their opposition. EVERY ONE of them speak highly of Jimmy. I believe with all my heart that this man will give his best fight on a case I have poor odds on, despite my ignoring his caution. In the end, he is my advocate. I have watched this man hobble into his office after foot surgery ignoring his doctors advise because he carries his clients burdens and they matter to him. I have no doubt we all keep him up at night. I don't know how he had a life outside of his office because it seems to me he lives there. I have received emails on my case time stamped 2am. I am a woman, (emotional) in a brutal divorce. He reads my "book" emails full of things that FEEL important but probably aren't to a judge. He's tollerated my neurotic concerns and has responded kindly and understanding. Even I would be sick of me.... Somehow, he listens, he feels for my situation and he is inspired to use his supreme skills to fight for me. If this man takes your case, you have been divinely blessed. I couldn't say enough....

I couldn't have asked for a better attorney than Jimmy White. I was going through a high conflict divorce where my wife was being dishonest in an attempt to gain everything we'd acquired during our 12 year marriage. I was so anxious I couldn't sleep. Jimmy was always very calming and assuring and represented me well. The divorce from hell is over and I'm satisfied with the end result. I recommend Jimmy to everyone I meet that is going through or anticipating a difficult divorce or an unfair child custody arrangement.

Mr. White exceeded those expectations with timely, accurate, seasoned guidance and representation. He is firm, fair, thorough, and efficient. He has developed an effective team that works together and maximizes results. Could not recommend higher.

I came to know about Mr. Jimmy White through Avvo. I was in a difficult situation with no money and nowhere to go. I got Jimmy's mobile number from this site and gave him a call. His voice was so gentle and kind that I felt heaven (not exaggerating even a word). He took my case even when he knew that I may not be able to pay him at the end. My ex-husband was flabbergasted after he came to know that Jimmy was my attorney. He couldn't believe how such a reputed attorney could take my case when my ex left me penniless. My ex initially tried to scare me off then started threatening me through people and later when he realized that I was constantly consulting Jimmy, he wanted to reconcile with me. Mr. White can understand people very well. I cannot forget those words, when I first started earning, Jimmy told me "you first eat and be healthy and pay me later". I can't believe anyone attorney had ever said or will ever say that to their client. Mr. White is very prompt with his emails and replies even during weekends. I had emails from him really early in the mornings and even late night. His team is also very good but he is exceptional. My ex-husband planned everything so well that entire situation was against me. It was only Jimmy who turned the situation such that I had roof over my head and food in my plate- when I was not allowed to work. I am based in Fairbanks and Jimmy attended the case over telephone. Jimmy is very reputed attorney and every time the judge would talk to Jimmy, I could see a smile on the judge's face. I can go pages after pages praising this gentleman. I highly recommend him to everyone!

If you need an attorney for anything Jimmy White is your man. Jimmy recently represented me on a family custody case, and was worth every penny. Legal fees can be quite expensive, attorneys are not cheap. Make sure you hire the right one, get the best bang for your buck. You want someone like Jimmy that will always be available, always have an ace up their sleeve, and always be in your corner. Jimmy was/is knowledgeable, resourceful, and approachable. Jimmy got me everything i asked for even against the most formidable legal team. With Mr. White by my side i always felt confident, included, and informed every step of the way. I had to fight tooth and nail, and Jimmy was by my side the entire time. As great as it was to have Jimmy sitting next to me in a courtroom, i think it would be a total nightmare to go against him in a court of law. A true professional, and a sharpshooter, he was never flustered, or unprepared. To the contrary, he always had the right answer, was/is well spoken and often make the opposing attorney look foolish or amateur. I would recommend Councilor Jimmy E. White to anyone i know. The outcome of hiring Jimmy as my attorney was tears of joy after a long hard fought legal battle. I pray no-one has to go through what i went threw. But if you do, best to have jimmy by your side.

I just wanted to take a moment to let you know of my experience with Mr. White and his team. I wanted to take the time to write and let you know that I am very pleased with the performance, support, professionalism and determination of Mr. White & his team. Throughout my divorce, he was always very quick to respond, made himself available during times that most would consider after hours and always patient in explaining the status and updates. Upon settlement of my divorce case, I felt that it was a fair settlement and that Mr. White did everything in his power to ensure this process had truly been as smooth and comfortable as possible. Every step along the way, I was kept informed of the progress, promises were maintained, I could not have asked for more!

I was given Jimmy's name from a friend and decided to retain his services in a custody related matter and I'm SO happy that I did! He and his staff showed me Amazing communication and organization at all times. They made me feel more at ease during a stressful time. From the beginning, I felt I was important to him and he really cared about me and the situation I was in. He gave me sound, intelligent advice and was honest with me about all of the facts presented and what my options were. He paid very close attention to details and was always prompt in answering my questions and concerns. I truly appreciate the service he provided and would ask him for help if ever needed again! Extremely impressed! Thank you Jimmy!

Jimmy White is an honest and hard working individual. I was lucky enough to get Jimmy to represent my in my divorce case. Being the under dog from the get go, (my ex held all our assets, and much higher income than me, and false accusations from my ex putting my custody of our children at risk) Jimmy kept me grounded. I was being bullied, and harassed by my ex for two years. Jimmy not only was patient with me and the system, but he always came across as a very intelligent and class act kind of man. My ex lied in court, lied about my integrity, called me horrible names. Jimmy kept me focused and went above and beyond as an attorney. I consider Jimmy a friend. Thank you Jimmy!

Last year, I was blind sighted with divorce papers while visiting my parents in New Jersey. At that time, I was unemployed with a toddler in my care. My ex-husband was making unreasonable demands. Jimmy helped assure me that there were case logs in place that would make it almost impossible for a judge to rule in his favor. Jimmy responded effectively to several motions that were filed against me. I had a lingering fear that my daughter would be taken from me, or that I would be made to return to Alaska. This did not happen, of course. Towards the end, Jimmy worked toward revising a parenting plan that would work for both me and my ex husband. The trial was relatively brief and we were able to end on an amicable note. I received full physical custody as Jimmy had anticipated, as well as shared legal custody. My ex-husband was made to bear some of my legal expenses. I find that Jimmy is very approachable and has a pleasant demeanor. It was very easy to get a hold of him whenever I called. As I've been recently employed and earning very little, Jimmy helped me greatly with my bill, and I really appreciate that. I wholeheartedly recommend Jimmy.

Two years ago, my husband filed for divorce. I started looking for an attorney. I talked to a few, some of them were shady, but most of them were fine. I didn't feel compatible or comfortable with them. I wanted an honest attorney to do it the right way, so I wouldn't feel bitter later in my life. I read Jimmy White's impressive reviews online. The web says he is a super lawyer. I went to see Jimmy...wow...! The super lawyer is really, really different than the others. Confidential, honest, optimistic. After five minutes, I knew I found the perfect lawyer I wanted to represent my case. His approach with the case was handled professionally and every step taken was thought out throughly for an ultimate final victory. Jimmy cared about my opinions and feelings. During the whole process, Jimmy and his team were very efficient, detailed, and thoughtful as they replied to all phone calls and emails in a timely manner. At the end of my divorce case, it turned 180 degrees from a very bad situation into a good result. I am happy with my divorce case closure. Going through a divorce is a very tough period in life. But if you have an honest, wise, thoughtful, powerful, hardworking lawyer, it will make it much easier and will have a better result at the end of the case. So, we can all go on for a better life or a new start!

Rarely trusting reviews, I was reluctant to believe these ratings. Nonetheless, I phoned Jimmy, on a Saturday, expecting to leave a message. He answered. If I ever doubted there was a god my experience with Jimmy would certainly challenge that. My case goes to trial in a few more days. Win or lose my opinion will not change. I have worked with many lawyers in the past for various things. NEVER, have I seen the heart that this man has. He's like a big brother who loves you to pieces and wants truth and justice to prevail. At the same time, he has been fearless. I've thus far paid him less than any attorney I've worked with but he's earned more than all of them combined. After hiring him, even opposing counsel was concerned as to if he liked her. I have several attorneys who lease space in my same office building and several clients who he represents their opposition. EVERY ONE of them speak highly of Jimmy. I believe with all my heart that this man will give his best fight on a case I have poor odds on, despite my ignoring his caution. In the end, he is my advocate. I have watched this man hobble into his office after foot surgery ignoring his doctors advise because he carries his clients burdens and they matter to him. I have no doubt we all keep him up at night. I don't know how he had a life outside of his office because it seems to me he lives there. I have received emails on my case time stamped 2am. I am a woman, (emotional) in a brutal divorce. He reads my "book" emails full of things that FEEL important but probably aren't to a judge. He's tollerated my neurotic concerns and has responded kindly and understanding. Even I would be sick of me.... Somehow, he listens, he feels for my situation and he is inspired to use his supreme skills to fight for me. If this man takes your case, you have been divinely blessed. I couldn't say enough....

I couldn't have asked for a better attorney than Jimmy White. I was going through a high conflict divorce where my wife was being dishonest in an attempt to gain everything we'd acquired during our 12 year marriage. I was so anxious I couldn't sleep. Jimmy was always very calming and assuring and represented me well. The divorce from hell is over and I'm satisfied with the end result. I recommend Jimmy to everyone I meet that is going through or anticipating a difficult divorce or an unfair child custody arrangement.
