about your legal rights, options and goals involving
Dog Bite Injury and other
Personal Injury Liability issues or disputes.
Dogs and other pets are great companions for may people and
families throughout Florida, the United States, and across
the world. However, every dog, cat, exotic bird, and other
type of pet has it's own personality, it's own level of
training by the pet owner, as well as it's own tolerances
and triggers that may cause the pet to bite or attack.
In the United
States, approximately 1/3rd of all homeowner's and renter's
insurance claims are related to dog bites and animal
attacks. When a person chooses to own a dog or other pet,
they automatically assume liability for any injuries that
their pet inflicts upon an "innocent victim". The reason we
use the phrase "innocent victim" is because if the injured
party intentionally incites the dog or other pet into a
state that caused the pet to attack, the issue of liability
may be successfully disputed by the pet owner.
For instance,
if a dog is in it's own yard and on a chain, and the injured
party taunted or excited the dog by yelling at the dog,
throwing objects at the dog, ran back and forth along the
fence-line in an effort to get the dog to chase them back
and forth, or the injured party was trespassing, these
actions may absolve the pet owner of liability for injuries
sustained. On the other hand, if the same dog is in it's
yard and a person is simply walking by the yard and the dog
leaps up and bites over or through the fence, or jumps over
the fence and attacks without intentional provocation by the
injured party, the dog owner is liable for the attack.
This is just
one scenario. There are many instances and circumstances
where liability must be established in civil litigation
cases involving dog bites and animal attacks.

services for dog bite and animal attack injury victim's, and in the even
