Portland Oregon Animal Law Attorney

Protecting animals and their legal rights can involve almost every practice area known to law. Constitutional issues, contracts, property rights, wrongful conduct, government regulation, and criminal law may all present complicated legal questions where animals are involved.
Specific examples might include cases where someone like a groomer or pet sitter acts negligently or recklessly and injures an animal, housing or access disputes involving service dogs or other assistive animals, and assisting animal rescues and other nonprofit animal organizations. We also work through estate planning and pet trusts to provide for companion animals after the death of their human guardians.
In addition to spanning numerous legal categories, animal law may also involve many categories of nonhuman animals. Companion animals like dogs and cats and large animals like horses and llamas all may present issues requiring a lawyer who is experienced in animal law.
 Our Portland animal law office concentrates on animal-related legal issues throughout Oregon and also adds our voice and skills to national issues involving animal rights. We are firmly dedicated to protecting the legal rights of animals and those who care for them.
