Seeking Compensation for Serious InjuriesDue to widespread dog ownership, dog bites are the single largest source of animal-related injuries. Dog bites can have painful and long-term consequences, including but not limited to:
- Scarring and disfigurement
- Infection and amputation
- Psychological trauma
Other types of animal attacks can also have serious consequences. The San Jose dog bite attorneys at our firm work with top-notch expert professionals to evaluate the extent of our clients’ injuries and the lifetime economic and non-economic damages associated with those injuries.
Enforcing California’s Strict Liability LawsIn California, owners of dogs and other animals have strict liability for injuries that occur due to bites and other injuries their animals inflict on other people. That means that if you are injured due to an animal bite, the owner is presumed to have been negligent in allowing the incident to happen.
