Dog Bites

An Attorney Ready To Represent You In Dog Bite Cases

Unexpectedly and alarmingly, you or someone you love has been attacked by a dog. You must recover from not only any physical injuries, but mental injuries, as well, as dog bite victims are likely to be traumatized. It takes time to recover physically, emotionally and financially.

The responsibility of controlling a pet belongs to the dog’s owner. Whether an animal attack occurred on the pet owner’s property or another private or public location, the owner is liable for any injuries caused to you.
