Interested in Animal Law?

Akron Law’s Student Animal Legal Defense Fund (SALDF) is a student organization providing a forum for education, advocacy, and scholarship aimed at protecting the lives and advancing the interests of animals through the legal system. Animal Law is a growing field consisting of many areas. It involves companion animals, wildlife, entertainment, research, food production, trafficking, animal cruelty, and more. While some attorneys pursue full-time Animal Law work, many work in other areas but devote time to Animal Law related causes through pro bono work.

If you would like to learn more about this growing area of law, please complete this short survey to express your interest and provide ideas for future events. The survey can be found at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/C6K7PQ8.
