As often happens, our firm's name was recognized by a reputable local attorney who staged musical comedies in the 1970s at the Bench Bar Conference with the Allegheny County President Judge and our Proprietor's grandfather, the late Don Very. He had such fond memories that he mailed us these pictures. Our Proprietor unknowingly continued this tradition at Boston University School of Law by directing the comedy troupe The Legal Follies (started by Emmy-winner David E. Kelly), and returns every year for the show. We never met Don Very, but as his late wife would say, he has the best seat in the house. ⛅️😇

Ordinarily, Pennsylvania law views pets merely as property, so that your legal rights are limited to property rights. But you can get additional rights at home, at work, in places of business, and when traveling if you designate your pet a therapy or disability service animal, which usually only requires a note from a therapist or doctor, and sometimes training.¹ If someone interferes with these special animal rights, they can be subject to more sophisticated civil and criminal claims. In this post, I’ll explain how my firm can help your pet become more than property in the eyes of the law.
