Creating a just world for animals.

The daily suffering and exploitation of millions of animals in Australia is legal because of cruel, inadequate and inconsistent laws. We fight to change this.

The Animal Law Institute is a community legal centre dedicated to protecting animals and advocating for their interests through the Australian legal system.

Anti-Puppy Farm Legal Clinic

Our Anti-Puppy Farm Legal Clinic was established to send a clear message to the puppy farming industry: you won’t get away with it.

We provide free legal services to Victorian residents in certain situations who have purchased a domestic pet from a person or entity and later discovered the pet has an underlying health condition that was not disclosed by the seller prior to the sale. 

Our reputation is built on our unwavering commitment to bring about real and lasting change for animals through the law.
