Legal And Local Leadership In Gig Harbor

Long before earning a Master of Laws in taxation and spending four decades in the law, attorney Alvestad was managing large-scale hay harvests and over 100 cattle on his family’s farm in Gig Harbor. Those long days and the responsibility of leading a work crew instilled the core values of grit and integrity that define our firm today.

At Gordon & Alvestad, PLLC, when clients face the heat of an audit from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the complexities of a high net worth estate or the tension of a contested will, they find an advocate who treats their legal challenges with the same relentless dedication he learned in the fields. We welcome new residents to the community and offer a reliable, experienced hand to manage Washington’s unique tax and probate landscape.
