Dog Bites

Not all dogs are as friendly as they seem. Over a third of all homeowners insurance claims consist of dog attacks, and around 600 million dollars for dog bite injuries are expended for. At Davana Law Firm, our personal injury attorneys take the time to assess your dog bite injury situation, be your advocate, and negotiate your claim for you. Our expert attorneys have won over 500 hundred personal injury cases that have successfully allowed our clients to receive the compensation needed to cover their medical bills. Let our determined attorneys fight for you and help you successfully obtain the legal compensation you are entitled to.

California is a "Strict Liability" Dog Bite State

With California being a “strict liability” dog bite state, the dog owner claims complete responsibility for their dog’s actions, including all injuries and damages that were a result of the dog accident. A defendant is only considered to be liable if his dog bit the plaintiff and:

The plaintiff had full authority to be present when the dog bite incident took place
The plaintiff did not provoke the dog

If you or your loved were a victim of a dog bite injury, you must be able to prove that the incident occurred in a public area or legally in a private space. Davana Law Firm’s personal injury attorneys have the experience you can rely on to help you prove your claim and successfully win your case.

Why Do You Need A Personal Injury Attorney for Your Dog Bite?

Dog bite injuries can consist of scarring, broken bones, and even deep emotional trauma. When an insurance provider isn’t willing to compensate you or the homeowner doesn’t have an insurance policy, our intuitive personal injury attorneys have the expert experience to efficiently guide you through each step of the legal process while fighting for you so that you receive the compensation you are owed.
