Our little cat friends also need specialized lawyers. It could be enough with a lawyer specialized in animal cases, although we can still specify more and find an expert in feline law.
Why an expert feline lawyer?
Animal law is a general term that encompasses all types of non-human animals. Animal law includes animals used in research, sports or entertainment, livestock, animals in the wild, and wild animals in captivity, as well as companion animals. Problems in animal law range from contracts to property rights, government regulations, torts, and criminal matters.
While it is true that a lawyer specialized in animals can help us with any type of pets, there are lawyers specialized in cases with cats.
Today, pet owners spend thousands of dollars to provide their cats with the best medical care, training, day care, and grooming. For those owners, having a trusted attorney is necessary to care for and protect their pets.
Can’t just any lawyer do this?
Anyone licensed to practice law is theoretically qualified to take on almost any legal matter. However, most attorneys develop expertise in one or two specific areas of law. The law regarding animals is complex and continually changing, with new legislation, new rules and regulations applied, and new interpretations impacting existing statutes. An attorney with experience in animal law is more qualified to represent her interests than a general practitioner or an attorney who specializes in other areas.
Unfortunately, there are many cases in which we might need a lawyer to defend our defenseless little pets:
- Bad veterinary or breeder practices
- Poisonings
- Damage to animals or other people
- Animal legislation
- Animal welfare
- Disputes between tenants and owners
- Shared custody
