The Horse and the Law
Posted by Karrie Louden B. Agribusiness, Llb on 5th Jan 2020
As a lawyer, I often get calls and messages from my horse contact who have legal problems. Most of the time these problems could have been avoided if legal advice had been sought before entering into a contract. If you are entering a contract for agistment, the sale of a horse, sale of a product, stallion services, employment or anything else - please make sure you have a contract! There are lots of lawyers who can prepare contracts for you to protect your interests and make sure things are as smooth as possible if there is a dispute.
I am a criminal defence lawyer so I can't help you with your contracts but please make sure you get professional advice before preparing and signing documents!
