Phoenix Dog Bite Lawyer
Medical costs after a dog bite or other animal attack can be substantial, sometimes including reconstructive surgery, and many child victims require emotional counseling and other costly services as well. In many cases, the pet owner can be held legally liable for damages, and homeowners' insurance or other coverage is available.
At Israel & Gerity, PLLC, we know Arizona dog bite law and the nuances of personal injury claims resulting from dog attacks. A skilled attorney will meet with you directly, initiate an investigation of all circumstances of the bite if needed, and thoroughly evaluate your options for obtaining financial compensation.
You May Have the Right to Recover Compensation After a Dog Attack
It is important to know that Arizona dog bite laws are based on "strict liability" for dog owners; these laws do not require a dog to have bitten before or demonstrated viciousness for the owner to be liable. Any dog — not only a pit bull, Rottweiler or similar breed — can bite and injure a person, and we pursue all valid serious injury claims. Our work on your behalf may include:
- Extensive investigation of how your injuries occurred, including dog attacks leading to falls while fleeing
- Complete documentation of the costs of quality medical treatment and the impact of permanent scarring or disfigurement on your quality of life
- Application of local leash laws and other ordinances that may strengthen your case
