PROTECTING YOUR RIGHTS AS AN ANIMAL OWNER
Greg’s legal practice is unique in which he works exclusively dealing with civil issues involving animals and their caregivers. His passion is advancing the welfare of animals.
Greg invites cases that involve people’s disability rights involving service and emotional support animals, landlord-tenant and condominium disputes concerning your animal companion, along with other areas of law that involve animals.
He drafts enforceable trusts for the care of animals in the event of the caregiver’s disability or death. The Humane Society of the United States reports that upwards of 500,000 companion animals are sent to shelters each year after their owners die or become incapacitated. In areas with a high population of senior citizens, half of the surviving companion animals are sent to animal shelters. Enforceable trusts are legally sanctioned instructions for the care of the animals left behind.
