Morgan Boutilier

As a Litigation Fellow, Morgan Boutilier works with the Litigation Program attorneys to develop creative strategies to advance the interests and welfare of animals through the legal system. She is particularly interested in using the law to challenge factory farming and improve our food system.

Morgan received her B.A. in sociology from University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). She returned to UCLA for law school, where she served as Co-President of the Animal Law Society and advocated for farm workers’ rights with UCLA’s Food Law and Policy Clinic, Lideres Campesinas, and Alianza Coachella Valley. During this period, she also held internships with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and Mercy for Animals. Morgan first worked with the Animal Legal Defense Fund in 2022 as a law clerk for the Litigation Program.

Morgan lives in Los Angeles with her partner and companions Summer Cloud the rabbit and Pooh Bear the hamster. Outside of work, she enjoys camping, cozy video games, and trying out new vegan recipes.
