The responsibility that underpins potential liabilities

Animal welfare law means you have a legal responsibility to treat animals in a way that doesn't cause them pain or distress that the law says is either unreasonable or unnecessary.

That's the starting point for every person or organisation that has an animal in their care, supervision or control. It's the formula that governs animal welfare responsibilities, accountabilities and liabilities.

Guardianz Animal Law has specialist insights in how to put that legal formula alongside the realities of animal-related activities and the paper law. That's highly relevant to successfully looking after client interests in criminal, civil or commercial issues which involve animals.

Services

Guardianz Animal Law offers clients cost-effective advice across a wide range of matters involving animals and relevant law.

We understand that any issue, business or objective involving animals can quickly become the focus of subjective, political and public attention. So Guardianz Animal Law offers a suite of services that address the realities and circumstances of each client.

The services assist with resolving existing issues by providing:

  • Legal representation involving animal law issues in civil, criminal and commercial matters involving animals
  • Providing negotiation and mediation insights on animal-related realities and law

We also place great emphasis on helping clients avoid unwanted attention in the media or the courtroom that cost them time, money, reputational damage and often much more. Guardianz Animal Law services include, for example:

  • Confidentially sitting in on senior planning and strategy meetings to provide input because learning about the legal landmines of animal law is better done in the meeting room rather than the courtroom
  • Providing in-house training to small or large groups who, in turn, input to the organisation's outward-facing materials and activities
  • Reviewing policies and practices to avoid them turning up as evidence of non-compliance or simply being outdated and unfit for the social license
  • Representing client interests with insightful and strong advocacy at Parliamentary and State Service enquiries, administrative tribunals and Ministry review panels is a service available to clients of Guardianz Animal Law
