Our Mission:
 |
Attorneys for Animals believes animals have a purpose of their own and inherent value beyond mere personal property. As attorneys and other legal professionals, we seek to work within the legal system so animals are recognized and protected as individual sentient beings by combining advocacy, litigation and legislative efforts with education, by demanding enforcement of existing laws, and by making funds available to organizations working on various projects to advance animal protection and rights. On May 8, 2008, all animals, including attorneys, lost a great and honorable friend, Wanda Nash. Please learn about Wanda: May 08, 2008: Wanda Nash 1943 - 2008
Wanda's family has suggested memorials be made to Attorneys for Animals. Our address is:
Donald R. Garlit, Treasurer
