Equine Law Studentship 2010
Three students have been chosen for this year’s Studentship: Sophie Phillips, Emma Green and Lee Cooper. Senior Partner, Michael Dalton, said that the firm had received a large number of applications of a high calibre but the three students chosen were clearly passionate in their desire to specialise in equine law.
The lucky winners spent the day learning core elements of equine law, including equine contracts, equestrian property transactions and equine disputes.
The students thorougly enjoyed their day with leading equine lawyer, Sarah Jordan. Sophie Phillips, who traveled from Stratford to Petersfield for the day said, ‘My studentship day at Daltons was a really fantastic opportunity to explore my passion for equine law further. I was able to engage in all kinds of equine legal matters from property sales to purchase disputes and ultimately realise what it would be like to practice as an equine lawyer. The staff at Daltons were exceptionally friendly and welcoming and made me feel completely at home, allowing me to optimise my learning experience. I really would like to thank Sarah Jordan and Daltons for taking the time to create this unique experience for those who, like myself, are interested in such a specialist area of law.’
Sarah was delighted with the enthusiastic approach the students took with the tasks set them and as a result Daltons are planning to make this an annual national award.
