The attorneys at Goeing and Goeing can help protect the rights of avid outdoorsmen who have been charged with hunting or fishing violations. These charges can carry with them the same penalties as various other criminal charges. Often times a violation of game laws can result in the suspension of hunting rights, forfeiture of firearms or other property, fines, jail time and other consequences associated with criminal charges. A common citation in Kentucky is for hunting dove or other federal migratory birds over baited fields. These charges are especially serious because they are frequently prosecuted in federal court. If you have been cited for any violation of game laws in Kentucky and are in need of legal assistance in presenting your defense or negotiating a lighter sentence please contact us immediately.
