Law Office of Brent R. Cole, P.C.
Your time is valuable. Spend it fishing, not in court.
Alaska's waters are home to some of the most productive commercial fisheries in the world. Commerical fishing is and has always been a large part of Alaska's economy. Alaska's commercial fisherman work in some of the world's harshest enviornments. They endure isolated fishing grounds, high winds, seasonal darkness, very cold water, icing, and short fishing seasons where very long work days are the norm.
With the expanding presence of the Alaska State Troopers on the fishing grounds, the fishing industry is seeing an increase in criminal prosecution. If you have been ticketed or are facing criminal charges related to fishing, we can help to protect your interests, permits, and rights. Most importantly, we can appear in court on your behalf to keep you on the water.
The Law Office of Brent R. Cole, P.C., has 20 years of experience handling fish and game violations around the State. Your time is valuable. Spend it fishing, not in court.
