Why should I hire a dog bite lawyer?
08-21-23
One of the biggest reasons it’s in your best interest to hire a dedicated personal injury lawyer to help with your dog bite is that fewer than 1% of dog bite victims are compensated. Even though dogs bite around 4.7 million Americans every year, fewer than 20,000 are compensated by insurance, even though they’re covered under most home insurance plans.
In most cases, a dog bite is a form of property liability injury, where the victim is injured on another’s property. In these cases, the property owner’s insurance should cover the damages, including injury recovery and other damages. Your lawyer will know what laws and insurance policies apply in your case, and they’ll help you navigate the complex legal landscape.
