Hi, I’m Tayva Taylor, founder of Alaska Law & Mediation. I’m a Personal Family Lawyer® and estate planning attorney based in the Mat-Su Valley, Alaska, proudly serving families across the Last Frontier.
With almost two decades of legal experience, I’ve dedicated my practice to helping families protect what matters most—whether that’s securing your children’s future, avoiding probate, preserving generational wealth, or navigating complex transitions with clarity and compassion. My work is grounded in practical wisdom, deep legal knowledge, and a sincere belief that planning should reflect your values, not just your assets.
As a mother of four and a lifelong Alaskan, I understand the unique challenges families face—especially when balancing busy lives, blended households, and long-term care concerns. That’s why I focus on creating plans that are both legally strong and deeply personal. I’m here to be your trusted legal guide—not just once, but for life.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me adventuring through Alaska with my husband and kids, hosting workshops on legacy planning, or chasing my dogs, Rudy and Scooby, through the backyard.
Let’s work together to create a Life & Legacy Plan that gives you peace of mind today—and protection for generations to come.

"Tayva has a gift for taking something as complicated and emotional as estate planning and turning it into a manageable, even empowering, experience. She explained every detail of our trust in plain English, made sure both my husband and I felt heard, and gave us options that truly fit our blended family. We left her office feeling relieved and confident—not something I ever thought I’d say about legal work. She’s the real deal."
— Megan W., Anchorage, Alaska
"I came to Tayva feeling completely overwhelmed after my mom passed. I was the personal representative and didn’t know where to begin. Tayva stepped in with compassion, clear guidance, and a sense of calm that helped me through one of the hardest times in my life. She honored my mom’s wishes, helped resolve family tensions, and kept everything moving forward. I’m forever grateful for her steady hand and warm heart."
