Bio
Daniel Fin
Throughout my time as a summer student at Suzana's animal law practice, I had the opportunity to be involved in several client consultations. Right from the beginning, I noticed how intelligent and empathetic Suzana is as an animal lawyer and mediator. She knows her area of law exceptionally well and is able to be both professional and compassionate in her interactions with clients. I highly recommend Suzana for any, and all, animal-law related issues that need a quick and pain-free resolution.

Gartner & Associates Animal Law Mediation & Consulting Services (GAL) is a consulting services firm that help clients resolve their animal disputes through collaboration efforts for peaceful resolution. GAL recognizes that animals are sentient beings and have individual personalities and emotions and deserve legal protection. At this time, we cannot take cases for legal representation. I am currently not in legal practice as a lawyer. Animal law generally refers to how the law impacts animals and those that care for them. Our practice includes a wide range of animal-related disputes that are often settled through collaborative efforts rather than litigation. We offer specialized tailored mediation services to our clients. Our practice areas include: pet custody disputes, animal legal/pet ownership claims, dog breed discrimination/ dog bite allegations, pet insurance claims, negligence cases, pet product consumer claims, estate matters for surviving pets, equine law, horse contracts, wildlife protection, farm animal advocacy, and much more.
