Animal & Dog Bites

Most cities, counties, and states have laws that allow you to recover damages if you were injured by a dog or other animal. These types of attacks are extremely common in the United States, with over 4.7 million dog bite injuries occurring annually. Though some people blame the dog or its breed, the owner of the dog is actually at fault for the attack. You should know what your legal rights and options are if you live in Pennsylvania and have sustained an injury due to a dog bite or other animal attack.

Make sure you remember where the attack occurred, since animal laws differ by location. Our attorneys can explain your legal rights under the applicable laws, and help you negotiate the legal system by pursuing insurance claims and demands for damages and other compensation.
