Dog Bites


We all love our pets, but animals can inflict serious bodily harm to an individual. Millions of people are injured by dog bites and animal attacks every year, and approximately one million of those injuries are serious enough to require medical attention.

In general, animal owners are responsible for the harm that their pets inflict on others, even if the animal doesn’t have a prior history of biting. However, under California law you only have a limited time within which you can file suit for damages caused by another’s pet. Failure to act in a timely manner could mean the loss of monetary compensation that you are otherwise entitled to recover, including damages for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
