A dog bite can cause significant physical injury and scarring, not to mention emotional distress, both at the time of the attack and in the future. Unfortunately, many victims of canine attacks are children, some of whom need surgical intervention to correct scarring when they are older. Many individuals struggle with a fear of dogs for the rest of their lives after they are bitten.

If you or your child was bitten by someone else’s dog, you may be entitled to financial compensation for past, present and future medical expenses, as well as emotional damages. Our attorneys can help you obtain fair and appropriate compensation by pursuing a claim against the animal’s owner, who is usually liable for the injury.
