Biography

Gabriel Sassoon is originally from Los Angeles, California. As an undergraduate, he attended Brandeis University near Boston, Massachusetts where he received his B.A. with a double major in Politics and Philosophy, in addition to a minor in Legal Studies. During his time there, Gabriel was also awarded the Official Citation for Outstanding Contributions from the Massachusetts Senate. From there, he returned to Los Angeles to attend one of the top law schools in the country, the UCLA School of Law. After graduating and receiving his J.D. degree, he developed his legal background in business and entertainment, working with major companies like NBC Universal and The Cheesecake Factory. Gabriel also had the opportunity to work with several major entertainment entities including production companies and agencies, developing a unique perspective into the business of entertainment and intellectual property.

Gabriel then moved to Juneau, AK and began working at Baxter Bruce & Sullivan, excelling in his practice and becoming one of the youngest Partners in the firm's history. For over a decade, he has established and grown one of the most successful family law practices in Southeast Alaska now consisting of several highly skilled team members. As an experienced litigator, he has been able to help his clients successfully navigate other areas of the law including business, probate, real property, contracts, intellectual property and entertainment law, to name just a few.
