Every thirty seconds, someone in the United States seeks medical attention for a dog bite related injury. The injuries resulting from dog bites can range from mild to severe, depending upon the circumstances of the attack. Regardless of the extent of your injuries, if you or a loved one has been bitten by a dog, you need to take immediate legal action to hold the owner of the dog responsible for your injuries. At the Law Office of Jason T. Corsover, we will help you file a personal injury claim so that you can receive compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering resulting from your dog bite injury.
Your Broward County personal injury lawyer will work very hard to make sure that a negligent dog owner is held accountable for their actions. Florida has a strict liability dog bite statute that states, “The owner of a dog is liable for damages inflicted by his or her dog that bites a person who is either in a public place or lawfully on the dog owner’s property.” Regardless of whether or not a dog has exhibited vicious behavior before, and regardless of whether the owner had reason to believe the dog would behave in a vicious manner, the dog owner is liable for any damages caused by their dog.
