Equine law is an obscure practice area that encompasses any legal matter that involves horses. These matters can include areas of the law such as contracts, property, real property, civil litigation, business formations, debt collection, bailment, real estate, land use, intellectual property, etc. An attorney with a working knowledge of horses and the horse business understands the subtle considerations involved in equine legal issues. As a result, the horse savvy attorney is able to anticipate and foresee points of critical importance that may be lost on an attorney without such knowledge.
