Careers in Animal Law: A Practical Guide to the Field, the Work, and the Future

The first edition of Careers in Animal Law has been an invaluable guide for students and lawyers over twenty years. This newly-revised second edition, like animal law itself, is an expanded version of the first. There are more opportunities to learn, teach, and practice animal law today. From establishing a solo practice to practicing international animal law, our relationship with, and use of, animals has impacted every country, every level of government, and every area of the law. This book shows law students and lawyers how to turn their passion for animal protection into a career. And it is written by someone who has done it and continues to follow her passion for animal protection more than 20 years later.

The book includes an overview of animal law today, how to decide whether animal law is right for you, and the educational opportunities that exist today but didn’t 20 years ago. It describes areas of the law that intersect with animals and the legal and nonlegal jobs that exist. Finally, the book includes interviews with various animal lawyers in different areas – how they got started, their practices, career advice, and their views of the future of animal law.
