Equine Law Team
Simon Burn Solicitors is uniquely placed to assist you or your business in relation to any situation or dispute concerning issues of equine law. Our Equine Team (which is led by a former amateur jockey) has expert firsthand knowledge of horses, commercial transactions involving horses and aspects of the equestrian and horseracing industries. This expertise coupled with our strong reputation for providing robust litigation services creates a highly effective service in this area.
Although many disputes involving this area are subject to the normal rules of law, a detailed understanding of the specific issues that relate to equine industries is absolutely essential. This is an area in which there are very few law firms that have the depth of experience and firsthand knowledge to help, let alone the necessary expertise in the litigation process. Simon Burn Solicitors can provide both.
We are happy to provide representation in relation to any equine related dispute or advice in relation to any legal issue touching on this area. The type of cases which we frequently advise include the following:
- Advising on the Bloodstock Industry Code of Practice.
- Disputes arising out of the sale and purchase of horses.
- Employment advice and representation for equestrian and racing businesses.
- Advice and representation in disciplinary proceedings raised by governing bodies.
- Bookmakers regulations and licensing.
- Dispute resolution and debt recovery.
- Advice and drafting of syndicate and partnership agreements.
