Fish & Wildlife Offenses
Washington state’s wealth of natural resources make it an ideal place for outdoor enthusiasts – hunters and fishermen in particular. Unfortunately, the rules and regulations governing these persons’ activities can be confusing and complex.
As a long-time Wenatchee area lawyer, I have provided strong counsel to numerous hunters and fishermen accused of intentionally or unwittingly violating fish and game laws, including:
- Fishing and hunting out of season
- Fishing and hunting without a valid license or permit
- Fishing limit violations (overfishing)
- Hunting bag limit violations
- Wildlife waste
- Trespassing or other land violations
