Dog Bite Accidents and Injuries

Read­ing Time: < 1 minute[tab name=“Dog Bite Acci­dents and Injuries”] Dog Bite injury has ele­ments of both pain and suf­fer­ing.  The vic­tim is usu­al­ly left trau­ma­tized for the rest of the life.  Once bit­ten, twice shy is not just a phrase for books; it is real life.

A good per­son­al injury attor­ney can help you or your loved ones.  The injury or the pain can­not be reversed but the own­er should be held liable for this neg­li­gence so that oth­ers are not vic­tims of this kind of reck­less action.

• Legal respon­si­bil­i­ty for dam­ages result­ing in these attacks by dogs is gen­er­al­ly con­sid­ered under Per­son­al Injury Law and referred to as torts.
• Per­son­al injury laws are enact­ed to pre­vent harm or to com­pen­sate for harm to a per­son or property.
• That harm or injury may con­sist of phys­i­cal, men­tal or finan­cial damages.
• The phys­i­cal injury due to a dog or ani­mal bite may even be sec­ondary to the men­tal injury to a per­son who has been vic­tim­ized to the extent of per­ma­nent scar­ring and disfigurement.
• The own­er of a dog or an ani­mal shown to be a pri­or dan­ger is strict­ly liable for the injuries caused by the dog or animal.
• The own­er of a wild ani­mal is strict­ly liable for harm aris­ing from the dan­ger­ous char­ac­ter­is­tic of wild ani­mals of its class.
