Counsel to Equine Non-Profits

We serve as outside general counsel for numerous equine non-profits including Saddlebred Rescue, Retired Racehorse Project, The Thoroughbred Makeover, New Vocations, and the Paso Fino Horse Association. Our equine rescue and rehabilitation clients purchase horses from auctions and sales, or receive donated horses, to rehabilitate any health concerns, by using a professional trainer to evaluate the horses, determine their level of training and suitability, and adopt them into appropriate homes. Our work for rescues includes handling corporate compliance, insurance and fundraising issues, drafting and guiding policies on social media use and revising adoption contracts and releases, in addition to contract and rule drafting around the Thoroughbred Makeover. Our work for the Paso Fino Horse Association is as outside general counsel providing governance advice, rule book advice, hearing committee counsel and litigation.
