Lawyers for Animals (Reg. No. A0047100G) (ABN 74 557 651 569) is a not-for-profit association incorporated in Victoria under the Associations Incorporation Act 1981 (Vic).

Lawyers for Animals cannot give legal advice outside the Animal Law Clinic.  Appointments at the Animal Law Clinic can only be booked through Fitzroy Legal Service. Please see our Clinic page for further information, including how the ALC will operate in 2021.

Lawyers for Animals is run entirely by volunteers, has no physical office space and no full-time staff – we therefore cannot take work experience students, interns or offer legal traineeships. If you would like to volunteer with Lawyers for Animals, see our Support page.

Battery Hens

Australia is home to over ten million egg-laying hens, 90% of whom are held in battery cages.

Battery hens live in a space smaller than a sheet of A4 paper, restricting any freedom to express natural behaviours.

Numerous European countries – including Germany, Austria and Sweden – have banned battery cages, and the EU has a total ban set for 2012.

Unfortunately, Australian politicians have not followed this global shift.
