Steffanie Lewis Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Washington

Steffanie Lewis Bio
My practice evolved from my business and international experiences.  I participated in an American Friends project in Mexico, in an International Argetslag project in Norway, in  a summer law program in Paris and obtained by LLM through the University of London.. Prior to attending law school, my deceased husband and I owned and operated a third-level air carrier serving the North Gulf Coast of Alaska from Yakutat to Seward and north to Gulkana.  Preparing for sudden growth generated by the creation of Alaska Native corporations and Alyeska pipeline, we merger with another air carrier.  After having operated for 10 years, we were dismissed by the merged company.  We sued for compensation and I resolved to obtain formal education in law and finance.  One year into my graduate finance degree, I was admitted to law school.  There I found my passion.. During the period between being dismissed and practicing law, I supported myself by owning and operating a salmon seiner in Prince William Sound.  In that capacity, one year I was also designated by the local fishermen's marketing association to obtain a foreign market for pink salmon and obtain permission from the Governor of Alaska to bring in a foreign processor.  The foreign market and processor opened the Prince Willima Sound salmon fishing that year.. After working as Lobbyist and General Counsel to the Helicolpter Association International for five years, Albert Lewis, my husband, and I joined The International Business Law Firm, PC (IBLF).  Members retired.  IBLF remains as a small specialized firm owned 90% by Albert and me.. I enjoin, and have enjoyed, meeting and working with many nationalities in my practice while creating solutions to numerous legal concerns and challenges.
