Long Island dog bites Lawyers

Serious dog bites can occur at any time and any place, even from a familiar neighborhood pet. As a rule such attacks are unpredictable and often result in catastrophic injuries and even death.

In most dog bite cases, the dog's owner will be required to pay for the scarring and disfigurement, pain and suffering, and all medical bills and lost wages associated with a dog bite. This liability cannot be avoided by attempting to show that he or she obeyed all laws and did not know the dog was capable of biting. Freedom from negligence and the owner's state of mind are irrelevant because liability is based on the dog ownership.
