Equine Law
According to British Equestrian Trade Association’s (BETA) latest national survey around £4bn is spent on horses in Britain each year. Although equine law is predominantly covered by the general law of contracts, our specialist equine law team not only has experience in handling specialist equine matters but also practical equine knowledge. We also understand the needs of our clients meaning we are able to deal with matters in a cost-effective way.
Many agreements for sale are still done on a handshake and are often for large sums of money. However, the way equestrian businesses are run and deals are done is changing and horse owners are becoming more aware of the need to enter into written agreements rather than taking what could potentially be a very costly risk.
Our equine law team can advise you on the following:
- Livery agreements
- Loan agreements
- Acquisition and disposal of equestrian property and grazing land
- Grazing agreements
- Business tenancies
- Contractural and commercial disputes
- Negligence claims
- Misrepresentation
- General business advice
- Employment contracts and advice
