Your trusted advisor in the
trade of plants and animals

Wildlife Law provides expert guidance and support to businesses and individuals navigating the complex regulations surrounding the trade of plants and animals.

Our services are tailored to educate, advise, and ensure full compliance with evolving laws governing the international wildlife trade.

With extensive experience and an in-depth understanding of the regulatory landscape, we have vetted thousands of items and maintain an ongoing dialogue with key regulatory authorities, including the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) and Natural England. This collaboration ensures that we remain at the forefront of policy changes, offering our clients the most accurate and up-to-date advice.

We also provide specialist support relating to taxidermy specimens, provenance research, expert witness reports, and probate valuations involving protected species and regulated materials.

As a member of the CITES Sustainable Users Group (CSUG), we engage regularly with government agencies, businesses, and conservation organisations to address critical issues related to the implementation of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). These strong relationships enable us to provide tailored solutions and ensure swift resolution of complex challenges, facilitating full regulatory compliance.

Whether serving auction houses, galleries, museums, musicians, shipping companies, law firms, collectors, or private clients, Wildlife Law offers the expertise and guidance required to navigate the complex regulations governing the trade of endangered species and wildlife-derived items.
