Ian Wheeles - owner | attorneyBorn and raised in Anchorage, Ian's passion is for the people of his home state. He is working to provide exceptional and affordable legal services for his fellow Alaskans. Ian's first love was baseball. After graduating from Dimond High School, he spent a year studying to be an architectural engineer at Illinois Tech (where he played second base just across the street from the Chicago White Sox), then majored in Political Science at UAA. He went to law school in Idaho, interned with the Anchorage Prosecutor's Office, and was an associate at the Law Offices of Dan Allan prior to starting his own practice in 2009. Ian worked his way through college and law school driving trucks and forklifts and plowing snow at Spenard Builders Supply.
Astounded by God's Creation here in the Last Frontier, Ian enjoys the Alaskan wilderness in every season. He is also an avid book collector (and occasional reader) and enjoys hunting, camping, and board games. He and his wife have three daughters and a son, and he hopes to build a (not too) remote family cabin someday soon. Ian believes deeply in giving generously, recognizing that God has blessed us with the means to turn and bless others for His glory. To this end, the Law Office of Ian Wheeles is committed to serving and blessing others in this community. |
