Animal Rights

Animal law is a new legal field, which includes all types of  legal actions involving the right, protection and welfare of animals.

Therefore, Conte&Giacomini deals with judicial and extra-judicial advising in order to ensure and protect animals’ welfare, thanks to a team of Lawyers with specific skills working both on a national and European level.

We already work for several Animal’s Welfare associations in Italy, Europe and worldwide, representing them in front of the European Institutions and the national Judges.

Furthermore, our Lawyers provide experienced counsel and legal advice to animals’ owners in a wide range of legal issues.

Finally, we promote the idea of the animals as “sentient beings”, as it is established by Article 13 of the Lisbon Treaty.
