About

I decided to become a lawyer while working for my father's law firm when I was in high school. I watched my father try cases, and decided that I wanted to become a trial attorney. In 1984 I spent a year abroad, studying at the Gymnasium Mussenredder in Hamburg, Germany.I graduated from the University at Santa Barbara in 1985 with Honors in History and German Literature. I obtained my law degree in 1991 from McGeorge School of Law in Sacramento, California. In 1992, I left California, and moved to Alaska. When I arrived in Alaska, I clerked for a Superior Court Judge and then worked as a public defender for approximately 5 years. I opened my own law firm and limited my practice to the areas of criminal defense, family law, and personal injury.On June 20, 2011, I was featured as co-counsel on 48 Hours television program, CBS murder of Bonnie Craig, a 17 year-old cold case.

Miss Bauer and her team, worked hard, and achieved the best possible outcome for me in my case.

I hired Ms. Bauer to represent my son on an assault charge that was made up by his lying girlfriend. She got the case dismissed and it saved his military career. She told us what to expect each step of the way. When it got dismissed we were very happy. We highly recommend her.

I was charged with a DUI where the police took my blood without a warrant. We won our motion but the prosecutor appealed. LeighAnn fought this all the way to the Appeals Court and won. She told me to trust her that she’d fight it all the way and get it done and she did. Saved my job. I can’t thank her enough.

Leigh Ann was great; she took the time to make me feel comfortable with my case. She saved my life; she got me to see that I had a drinking problem and talked to me about treatment that helped me start over sober for the first time in years. My boss told me that I was going to be let go if I was convicted and Leigh Ann got my case reduced to a reckless. Thank you Leigh Ann, choosing her was a life changer

LeighAnn filed a motion to dismiss my case because the breath machine was jammed and I couldn't blow in it. I was charged with a refusal too. LeighAnn pulled the records on the machine and listened to the tape. I am in the military and it was a very big deal. The prosecutor folded and dismissed my case. She's great!

I can't thank Ms. Bauer enough for getting my DUI case dismissed and the DMV too. I was going to lose my military career, but she filed papers with the court, we had a hearing and the judge ruled that there was no legal reason to arrest me. I am so glad I hired her.

Ms. Bauer did a great job with my case--There was a problem with the stop and the tests. The officer was supposed to tell me I could have a blood test but didn't read me that paper. She did a great job getting the prosecutor to dismiss it. She also did the DMV and got my case dismissed there too. I would have lost my job if she hadn't taken my case and had it thrown out. She told me what was going on with my case let me know what was going on. She is very good at what she does because she has been doing this for a long time and is very professional.

This week ms. Bauer went to court and got my driving without a license suspended charges dismissed. I had two-- state and muni. She worked my case real hard and helped me to get my driver's license back with the DMV. Once I did, she got my charges dropped. I was looking at 10 days in jail on each case. Before I got ms. Bauer as my attorney, the muni prosecutor was a real dousch and I thought I was going to jail for sure. She stepped in and pushed hard to make the charges go away. She let me know what was going on with my case and kept me posted. Now I can get a better job now that I can drive again. She's awesome!
