A lawyer who specializes in dog bite cases can identify the dog’s owner and find any evidence that shows the pet was known to be dangerous, such as previous incidents, behavioral issues or even a “beware of the dog” sign. To determine liability, a lawyer may also review local laws to see if the dog’s owner was required to keep their pet under control and secure it from other people.

Victims are often approached by the dog owner’s insurance company shortly after their attack and offered a quick settlement to get them to go away. It is important to work with a lawyer, as the insurance company only cares about its profits and may not offer you the full amount of money you deserve. A skilled lawyer can fight back against the insurance company and force them to provide a fair offer.
