Equine Law Studentship 2010
Three lucky students between the age of 17 and 21 will be given the opportunity to spend a day training with leading equine lawyer, Sarah Jordan, at her office in Petersfield, Hampshire.
An intensive eight-hour schedule has been devised to ensure the students obtain a good basic understanding of equine contract law, equestrian property transactions and equine dispute law. In addition Sarah will take students to lunch where they can quiz her about life as an equine lawyer and a career in law in general.
Sarah comments: “I regularly receive requests from students who want to be an equine lawyer … the Equine Law Studentship has been designed to satisfy these requests subject to application. I intend this to be an annual award giving students the opportunity to learn about this specialist career path.”
To apply please submit two maximum 100 word responses to the following questions:
(1) For who and why is it important that a lien clause be incorporated into a livery agreement?
(2) What reasons would make you a good equine lawyer?
