The equine industry ranks third of the various agricultural sub-divisions in the State of Maryland. Being informed and involved are vital to the success of your equine business or personal ownership of your horse.

Individuals: Owning a horse is a rewarding endeavor and a huge responsibility. Just owning a horse as a hobby involves a great many risks and liabilities. Whether purchasing through a private owner, a stable, or an auction, buyers and sellers should have an attorney review all documents before signing on the dotted line!

Businesses: Operating an equine facility (rental, boarding, breeding, training, lessons) involves a great deal of savvy and knowledge regarding required licensing, liability, and good business practices. Consider the myriad of issues involved: entity selection, syndication options, sale and purchase contracts, liens, employment, land use, and premises liability issues. Assessing current and potential legalities involved in this high-risk and challenging business is available at reasonable rates.

Groups: Speaker services are available gratis to horse and pony clubs, breed associations, and sport  groups on equine law topics specific to the group's needs and interests. Contact this office for availability.
