Birch Horton Bittner & Cherot

What Birch Horton Bittner & Cherot does

Birch Horton Bittner & Cherot (BHBC) is a full-service Alaska-based law firm founded in 1971 by Ronald Birch, structured as a Professional Corporation with offices in Anchorage and Washington, D.C. The firm fields 30+ attorneys and additional paralegal and support staff across 19 practice areas, including corporate and commercial law, bankruptcy and creditors' rights, litigation, employment and labor law, government contracts, health care, energy and public utilities, natural resources and environmental law, Alaska Native and Native American law, municipal law, personal injury, telecommunications, and FOIA/public records. Its client base spans individuals, associations, Alaska Native corporations, federal/state/municipal government entities, and regional enterprises (e.g., American Seafoods, Alaska Communications, Cook Inlet Housing Authority, North West Company), with representation extended to clients in over 30 U.S. states.

BHBC generates revenue exclusively through professional legal services billed via hourly rates, fixed fees for transactional matters, contingency fees for personal injury cases, and flat fees for certain engagements, with no proprietary technology product or platform underpinning the business. The firm operates a sales-led, relationship-driven go-to-market model reliant on attorney-client relationships, referrals, peer-review credibility (AV Preeminent ratings, Chambers USA, Best Lawyers, Super Lawyers), and a dual-office distribution footprint that gives it direct access to both Alaska state matters and federal agencies, Congress, and the FCC. The Washington D.C. office, opened in 1975, functions as the firm's federal advocacy and regulatory platform, supported by former senior congressional and executive branch officials on the attorney roster.
