Dog owner liability and homeowners' insurance

Even pet owners with good intentions can be liable if their dog attacks. Most dog bites are covered under a homeowners' insurance policy, so it is important to identify the dog and the owner as soon as possible after a bite. Our attorney will also assist in collecting other important evidence like photographs of the bite marks, witness statements, police reports, hospital records, and any history of attacks involving the dog. We know how to do the important leg work for your case and will do necessary ground work—talk to neighbors, go door-to-door, and consult with experts when necessary.

We are experienced in premises liability / dog bite cases involving:

• Dangerous dogs and dangerous breeds
• Children injured by dog bites
• Catastrophic and serious injuries
• Emotional damage, PTSD, depression, anxiety
• Severe scarring and disfigurement
• Loss of limb

Texas dog bite law and your rights

Texas injury laws related to dog bites and animal attacks are complicated and definitely not clear-cut. It is important to consult with an attorney when faced with difficult legal questions involving your case. Our attorney has extensive experience in dog bite cases and will effectively articulate your rights in the event that you or someone you love has suffered a dog bite. We know that the consequences can be severe, so we take a comprehensive approach to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. We will work towards compensation for your medical expenses, future medical needs, pain and suffering, lost wages, psychological counseling, and plastic surgery for severe scarring, where necessary.
