Here’s how The Cutler Law Firm is making a difference for our clients and the veterinary profession:

Experience/Business Advice

With over 25 years of experience in handling veterinary transactional and business law matters, we regularly provide helpful business advice in addition to assisting with negotiations and legal documentation.

Win-Win Philosophy
Wherever possible, we work collaboratively with the other parties involved to help achieve our clients’ desired outcomes efficiently and with the goal of seeing the parties build trust and rapport.
Education Focus
We have spoken to thousands of veterinarians and veterinary practice owners to help educate them about legal matters and market conditions. We also routinely speak to veterinary students to help prepare them for the path ahead.
Deal Sophistication
We work on matters involving a very wide range of complexity from associate contracts to $100M practice sales.
Outcome Oriented
We focus on each client’s most desired outcomes, recognizing that each client is unique.
Improvement Focus

We like what we do and remain curious about what new things we can learn.

Well-being Focus

Although some matters that we assist with are inherently stressful, we aim to minimize stress for our clients through clear communication, organized processes and a sense of humor.

Giving Back

We dedicate a portion of our profits each year to supporting causes that focus on providing veterinary care in places where it is desperately needed.
