Do I Have a Dog Bite Case?
In Georgia, dog owners have a responsibility to keep their dogs on a leash while in public.
There is no “one bite” rule for civil liability in Georgia. There are no free bites in this State.
Big dog? Small dog? Size doesn’t matter. Sometimes small dogs can be the most vicious.
Labrador Retriever, Shizue, Bulldog, or Pitt Bull? Doesn’t matter either. All breeds of dogs are capable of a brutal dog bite attack.
Plus, many times dog owners lie about a dog’s past history of violence, including lunging at others, aggressively barking, prior attacks, biting other people, etc.
Let our Georgia dog bite lawyers help find the truth about the dog’s vicious past. We will sniff out the lies like a DEA bloodhound.
The early stages of a dog bite case are often the most important. Be sure to document/photograph your wounds and scars, call animal control, and get medical treatment for your injuries.
Call us today for a free attorney consultation. Our experienced dog bite attorneys will tell you if you have a strong case, weak case, or no case at all.
What if the Dog Owner Does Not Have the Financial Means to Pay for My Injuries?
Unfortunately, many times, victims of these brutal attacks are left without financial compensation for their injuries.
This is because people do not know where to start in terms of seeking financial compensation.
- What type of insurance (if any) covers dog bite claims?
- Homeowners insurance? Business insurance? Uninsured/underinsured insurance?
These are some of the most important questions in a dog bite case, and something we are experienced to help determine.
You need an experienced Georgia dog bite lawyer in your corner who genuinely cares about helping you and your family get maximum compensation for your injuries.
