Description

Animal Law is now recognized as an important and evolving area of practice as companion animals become subject to custody disputes, and service providers - including animal welfare and entertainment venues - face litigation challenges or legislative changes to their activities. While many North American law schools begin to carve out academic and research space for this developing area, our half-day program helps you to get a handle on the key issues involved. Join us to learn more.

Learn about the intersection of animal law with other areas of legal practice
Evaluate the distinctions between sentient beings vs. other inanimate forms of property
Find out about recent case law in respect to this emerging area of law

Presenters

Jennifer Friedman, Canada's Animal Lawyer
