Peter’s Lawyer Character Analysis

Peter’s lawyer is a middle-aged woman. Though Cole never describes what she looks like except to note that she’s about his parents age, he hates her. This is understandable—Peter’s lawyer is dismissive and wholly unwilling to give Cole the benefit of the doubt, even when he tries to show how much he’s changed after his first time on the island. During the meetings between Cole’s trips to Alaska, Peter’s lawyer seems to barely respect the rules of Circle Justice and often speaks out of turn.
