EQUESTRIAN LAWRiding and owning horses is exciting and rewarding – however buying and selling horses is often fraught with difficulty. An advertisement often describes a horse as having “no vices”; the horse is viewed, ridden and on some occasions vetted and subsequently purchased. Shortly afterwards the horse exhibits a vice that was not apparent on purchase and a dispute between the buyer and seller arises. It is important to have advice from a solicitor experienced in dealing with horse related disputes, who is also able to advise on the instruction of veterinary and equine experts where necessary. Any dispute needs to be dealt with quickly and as cost effectively as possible. As with all disputes dealt with by the Kitson & Trotman litigation team, we consider at an early stage possible settlement of the dispute without the need for court proceedings and, where appropriate, mediation. Horse riding or just being around horses can be hazardous. In many instances an injury is not the fault of the victim and Kitson and Trotman are able to advise where liability and damages might arise. We can also help with loan agreements, an important way to protect both parties to a horse loan.
