Animals touch every aspect of modern life—and law. They’re used for companionship, entertainment, food, fashion, and experimentation. The emerging and interdisciplinary field of animal law creatively leverages state and federal law, from California’s Unfair Competition Law to the United States Constitution, to advance the interests of our nonhuman friends. Join Vanessa Shakib for an introductory discussion on impact litigation and creative legal strategy for animals.
Vanessa is an expert in animal law, government accountability, and illegal business practices. Her work has been featured by CNN, Fox News, the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, USA Today, the Guardian, Science Magazine, and more. Vanessa co-founded and co-directs Advancing Law for Animals, a non-profit law firm for our non-human friends. There, she develops impact litigation to further the interests of animals exploited in research and industrial food production. Vanessa is an Adjunct Associate Professor of Law at Southwestern Law School, and was awarded 2022-2023 SBA Adjunct Professor of the Year. She regularly presents talks as an invited expert in animal law both nationally and abroad.
