Consultant Veterinary Surgeons - Expert Witnesses.

Vetlaw was founded to provide a unique service, both to members of the legal profession and direct to businesses and members of the public. The Directors of the Company have practiced as veterinary surgeons for twenty five years, and have acted extensively as Expert Witnesses for twenty years.
Both Directors are also legally qualified and can therefore offer a dual professional perspective.

Our legal advice is focused by our intimate and extensive knowledge and experience of agriculture, rural pursuits, the equine industry, companion animals and the food industry.
As Experts who are familiar with the Law, we can assist your legal advisors to determine the most appropriate course of action for your situation.

A rapid grasp of the facts and technical aspects allows savings in both time and cost and identification of the critical legal issues.

On so many occasions, appropriate initial advice can prevent needless conflict with regulatory authorities and litigation can thus be avoided.

Businesses such as farmers, livestock auctioneers, equine professionals and meat traders are today engulfed by an ocean of legislation which is swelling daily. We can assist you to navigate this sea by anticipating the legal hazards and understanding the practical and commercial constraints under which you operate.

Veterinary Surgeons, Solicitors and other professionals can take advantage of our service to provide a comprehensive package to their clients.
