Announcing Litigation for Animal Welfare (LAW)

At Merrell Strategy, we believe that strength must be matched with responsibility. Alongside our work in crisis management and litigation strategy, we are proud to invest in nonprofit initiatives that protect the vulnerable and give voice to those without one.

One of the most important of these efforts is Litigation for Animal Welfare (LAW), a nonprofit organization founded by our own Alexandrea Merrell. LAW exists to confront the systemic failures that allow animals to suffer without justice. Through legal action, education, and advocacy, LAW challenges institutions, individuals, and industries that exploit or endanger animals.

LAW’s mission is straightforward: to ensure that the law does not simply exist on paper but is actively enforced in the courtroom. From bringing cases that expose cruelty, to empowering attorneys who want to dedicate their skills to animal advocacy, LAW is building a network of legal professionals committed to change.

Merrell Strategy proudly provides strategic and operational services to LAW, ensuring that the organization can focus on its core mission while leveraging the kind of sophisticated support usually reserved for corporate clients. Our team applies the same tools we use in high-stakes crisis management; legal insight, media strategy, and investigative depth, to strengthen LAW’s ability to make a measurable impact.

Litigation for Animal Welfare reflects the values that drive us at Merrell Strategy: justice, accountability, and protection of the most vulnerable. We look forward to sharing more about LAW’s cases, initiatives, and victories in the months ahead.
