Bitten by a Dog? You May Be Entitled to Compensation!
Dog bites can cause serious injuries, leaving victims with painful wounds, permanent scarring, infections, nerve damage, and even emotional trauma. In some cases, severe bites may require reconstructive surgery and ongoing medical treatment. Children are especially vulnerable, as they often suffer the most serious injuries in dog attacks.
In California, dog owners are held strictly liable for bites, meaning they are responsible for injuries caused by their dog—even if the dog has never bitten anyone before. However, insurance companies often try to minimize claims or blame the victim, making it critical to have an experienced attorney on your side.
