What's the #1 misconception people have about dog bite injuries?

In Massachusetts the number one misconception that people have about dog bite injuries is that a dog gets one free bite before you can make a claim. That is not true in Massachusetts law, it may be true in other states, we are a strict liability state here. If that dog bites you, it has only one bite at which time you are entitled to make a claim against the dog owner or the dog controller for the pain and suffering for the bite. My name is Robert Mazow, I'm a partner with Mazow/Mccullough. If you've been hurt or a family members been hurt as a result of somebody else's negligence, call us, the right lawyer makes all the difference.

What's the difference between a dog bite and a dog attack?

Serious dog attacks in California are on the rise. The amount of dog bite claims are on the rise as well. And there's a huge difference between a dog bite and a dog attack. You know, if your beagle nips at you, that's a dog bite. But a dog attack is where you actually have puncture wounds, need to get medical assistance, need to get stitches, sometimes plastic surgery.

What should I do if I've been the victim of a dog bite?

If you're a victim of a dog attack, or you have a child who's been a victim of a dog attack, obviously you need to seek medical attention. Secondarily, though, you need to identify the dog; who the owner of the dog is is essential in paving the way for any type of a recovery in a dog bite or dog attack case. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

What should I do after a dog attack?

The procedure after a dog attack is, of course, first getting medical attention. That's foremost. But as far as a dog bite claim, what's important is identifying the dog and then identifying the owner. Taking pictures of the wounds is huge, because a picture tells a thousand words, and a wound doesn't look so bad six months after it's been healed up, but it looks really bad right in the beginning. And an insurance adjuster or a jury is never going to understand how bad the bite was unless you have early photographs. I'm John Bisnar, the senior partner of the Bisnar/Chase Law Firm.

After being bitten by a dog, the very first thing you should do is seek medical attention.

The next thing you should do is contact the police department to make sure that this dog does not have any problem with it and the dog's appropriate papers are in place.

What should happen to the dog that bit me?

If you've been involved in a dog bite incident, it's important to provide the information to the local police, to the local animal control; because that dog may be infected with a number of different diseases, including rabies. That dog needs to be quarantined and tested to assess what your injury is and assess what treatment you might need within the weeks immediately following the incident. That's the most important thing following a dog bite, and then ultimately the future treatment that you need because of any scarring or emotional elements that are involved with that particular claim.

What if I can't identify the dog that bit me, do I still have a case?

If you are involved in a dog bite incident, it is very important to find out the actual dog that bit you or injured you and it is equally important to find out who the owner of that dog is, who the keeper of that dog was at the time of the incident. That only allows you to gather that information to go forward to present that claim. But if you don't know who the owner of the dog was at the time of the incident, or the keeper of the dog was, or in fact, which dog bit you, you may not have a claim. my name is Kevin McCullough with the law offices of Mazow and McCullough.

If I have been hurt by a dog, but not bitten, do I still have a case?

In the state of Massachusetts, dog owners and dog keepers are responsible for their dogs. There is case law in Massachusetts in that if you are not actually attacked or bitten by a dog, but you are injured because of a dog, you may still have a claim. For example, if a dog gets away from its owner or its keeper and it jumps on top of you or knocks you to the ground, and you suffer injuries because of that, you have a potential claim or potential cause of action for your injuries.

If you've suffered injury because of a dog bite incident, it's important to find out the owner or the keeper of the dog and it is that person or persons that are responsible for your injuries.

What injuries can a dog bite cause?

In dog bite cases especially those involving children we see very jagged injuries that are dirty, tend to get infected. We've seen children's ears get bitten off, lips torn, noses bitten off, eye damage. It can be very devastating especially if it's a large dog, and these injuries many times require plastic surgery to repair and involve permanent disfigurement, so the value of the cases could go from the thousands of dollars to millions of dollars depending upon how much damage the dog does to the child.

What's the #1 mistake people make after a dog bite attack?

Because most dog bite attacks are done by a dog that a person does not know, the number one mistake that people make is to not get the name of the owner or the person that's in control of that dog. Once that dog is taken away from the scene, if you don't have the name of the dog, or the registration number of the tag, or the person that's in control or owns that dog, there's going to be no way you're going to be able to make a claim for the damages that come from that.

When someone suffers an injury due to a dog bite incident whether it's a child or an adult, there are several different components to that injury. There are the medical bills that are incurred. There are the physical wounds of scars that are incurred. There are also the emotional scars or trauma. Oftentimes with children, especially with children there's an emotional element to the claim involving nightmares. A fear of dogs. A fear of being around dogs.

Who pays the claim in a dog bite case?

In a dog bite lawsuit, the dog owner is responsible almost always. And if the dog owner owns a home, then his homeowner's insurance, the general liability provision of his homeowner insurance, will cover, unless the dog has been excluded from the policy. And in many policies in California, specific breeds are excluded, specific dogs are excluded, and specific weight of dogs are excluded from the policies. Otherwise the general liability provision of the insurance policy of a homeowner will cover a dog attack claim. I'm John Bisnar, the senior partner of the Bisnar-Chase law firm.

Who are the most common victims of a dog attack?

The most horrendous dog attack cases are the ones against children. Generally dogs will bite a child around the face, neck and head. With the very aggressive dogs, they will rip and tear. So, there is a lot of damage that creates tremendous scaring especially around the lips, the face, the eyes, the ears. I've seen cases of lips ripped off and ears ripped off and the amount of recovery time, the scaring, and the plastic surgery that comes afterwards, it?s just tremendous, its horrendous.

How much money are victims of dog bite attacks awarded?

The recovery in a dog attack law suit is just like in any other lawsuit. It's the value of your claim. It's the value of your injury. It's the value of your medical expenses. The reason why dog attack claims are higher than in other kinds of accidents is because of the nature of the wound. A dog bite wound is jagged, it's full of germs, it leaves nasty scarring and many, many bites are to the face, especially children. So you have great deal of scarring and you wind up having plastic surgery bills. I'm John Bisnar, the senior partner of the Bisnar/Chase Law Firm.

Should I hire a lawyer to file a dog bite claim?

An attorney can make a huge difference in a case when you are dealing with an adjustor. If you go to an adjustor to settle a case your self and he knows you're not an attorney and knows you can't go to trial you don't have much of a bargaining position. With an attorney who has a reputation with doing dog bite trials and getting large settlements in dog bite cases the insurance company has to be concerned because they know that type of an attorney can bring some heat and make some things happen and will probably get a much higher recovery than someone who is handling it themself.

Do I need a lawyer to file a dog bite claim?

In dog attack claims, you don't necessarily need an attorney to handle the claim. If it's serious an attorney will be a big help to you. If you are a fair negotiator, I mean if you know how to negotiate and you can handle dealing with an insurance company, then you could handle the claim yourself, as long as you know the value of the claim yourself (and that's the tricky part). Because a very experienced personal injury attorney, or a dog bite attorney, is gonna know what he settled his last 100 claims for and be able to identify the value of your claim versus those other claims.

Will my dog bite claim cover plastic surgery?

In a dog attack claim, not only is the victim entitled to the medical expenses that they incur initially, pain and suffering that they would have, any lost income that they would have, but the eventual plastic surgery to repair the scarring. So many times, especially children when they are bit in the face, they will require extensive plastic surgery, and that is covered in a claim.

Who's at fault in a dog attack in California?

Jeff Roberts: If you've been bitten by a dog in Southern California, the owner of the dog is first and foremost liable for all your injuries, as well as lost income and any pain and suffering that you have from the dog attack. But also, the landlord for the owner may be responsible too if that landlord knew that the dog was dangerous and had a propensity to bite people. And in that case the landlord can be held liable for all your medical bills, your pain and suffering as well as lost income.

Who's the most common victim of a dog attack in California?

Speaking from experience I can tell you that children are most likely to be attacked by a dog. I myself was attacked by a dog when I was a child. Predominantly what happens is another child takes their family dog out to the park and doesn't realize that the dog can become agitated around children. It's a very dangerous situation, but children are the ones that are most susceptible to dog attacks, particularly because they are at the height of the dog.

Who gets the dog in a divorce in Arizona?

In Arizona, property that is acquired during a marriage, including the dog usually is divided by agreement of the parties. But of course there are always the cases in which agreements are impossible. But the last thing that a judge wants to do is intervene on how to divide tangible property from the dog, to the lamp, to the book ends. So what the court will order the parties to do is to make a list, an inventory if you will, and make a decision on what’s most important to each party. And they will hand one party the list and they will check off an item, such as the dog. And then they will hand the other party the list and they will check off the couch. This is how property would be divided if parties cannot be adults and come to an agreement. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm.

Why are dog attack cases on the rise in California?

I can see that 80 percent of the cases I handle involve two breeds, Rottweiler?s and pit-bulls. Twenty years ago, I never saw a Rottweiler or pit-bull case. They were usually German Shepherds. We have a much higher percentage of the more aggressive breeds of dogs and we also have more people, dogs in smaller areas, they're more agitated, there is more chances of the dogs getting upset and actually attacking somebody. The more aggressive breeds, they attack and keep attacking rather than bite or nip to make you go away. I'm John Bisnar, the Senior Partner of the Bisnar/Chase Law Firm.

Why representing dog bite cases are personal for me.

When I was a child, I was bitten by a dog and unfortunately my parents did not hire an attorney who specialized in dog bite cases. And they did not receive the recovery that I should have received for that case. It's one of the reasons that when I represent people that are in dog bite cases, particularly children, I fight to recover maximum recovery for them. For their injures, for their pain cause there is a great deal of pain associated with dog bites. And for scaring, particularly if it's going to be long term scaring.

Do I have a stronger dog bite case with certain kinds of dogs?

There are certain types of breeds that are considered to be the more dangerous kinds. The Rottweilers and the pit bulls. Those dogs are more likely to cause more significant harm to you because of the manner in which they attack and the manner in which they bite. There is going to be, most likely, more damage to you as a result of being bitten by one of those dogs. Therefore the compensation would likely be higher. My name is Robert Mazow.

Why are children the most common victims of a dog attack in California?

Children are the most common victims of dig attacks. Because one, usually it is another child bringing the dog out of the house and its not being supervised by an adult. Two, dogs are threatened by small children that are right there in their face and it presents a danger to the dog and a natural attack. And third, children are more apt to instigate the dog just by playing with it and they don't realize the dog is going to attack them. I'm Jeff Roberts, of the Roberts Law Firm.

Who pays the claim in a dog attack case in California?

In most cases, if you've been attacked by a dog, the owner will be responsible and in most situations if the owner is a homeowner, they will have insurance to cover the dog bite and the insurance will cover it. Many people come to me and are concerned about making a claim against a neighbor for a dog bite attack. I let them know that the claim is actually being made against the insurance company for the owner, not directly against the owner themselves.

What types of injuries can be covered in a dog bite or attack claim in California?

Dog bite claims have unique injuries different from many other types of accidents. In particular, scarring. And in a dog bite claim, all medical bills can be compensated. If someone looses income due to the dog bite, they will recover their lost income. Pain and suffering, but also, as I said, scarring. Scarring, particularly, on small children causes problems later on as they get older and requires surgeries and those surgeries will be compensated as well.

Is it true that Massachusetts dogs get their first bite free?

Well it may be true that in some states a dog gets its first bite free. That is not the case in Massachusetts. In Massachusetts we are a strict liability state. If that dog bites you, you have the right to bring a claim against both the owner of that dog and the person that's in control of that dog. There is no "one bite free" in Massachusetts.
