Cynthia Cook is an associate attorney at Aglietti Offret LLC in Anchorage whose practice includes family law, criminal defense, civil litigation, administrative matters, and personal injury. Her family-law work covers divorce, child custody, and domestic violence protective orders, while her broader practice includes Child in Need of Aid matters and cases involving the Office of Children’s Services. She brings substantial Alaska public-service and prosecution experience to her representation of clients.

Cook earned a J.D. from Mitchell Hamline School of Law in 2022, a B.S. in Criminal Justice from Penn Foster College, and an A.A. in General Studies from the University of Alaska Anchorage. Before and during law school, she spent about a decade with the Alaska Department of Corrections, including service as a Staff Sergeant responsible for training and supervising correctional officers. Her education and public-safety background support a practical understanding of criminal, family, and administrative systems.

Cook later served as an Anchorage Assistant District Attorney, where her assignments included Veterans Court, rural Alaska communities, and cases involving violent crimes. She also worked in the Alaska Medicaid Fraud Control Unit, prosecuting matters involving Medicaid fraud and the abuse or neglect of vulnerable people. These roles provided courtroom and investigative experience that complements her current work in family cases, criminal matters, civil disputes, and proceedings involving state agencies.

Cynthia Cook is admitted to practice in Alaska and Montana. She also serves as an adjunct law professor and tutor at Mitchell Hamline School of Law and has experience supporting bar-exam preparation. Her background across corrections, prosecution, teaching, and private practice helps her guide clients through emotionally and procedurally difficult cases with a clear understanding of court systems, government processes, evidentiary issues, and the practical decisions that legal disputes often require.
