Who pays the claim in a dog bite case?

Bisnar Chase LLP

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. We exclusively represent seriously injured accident victims, from our offices in Newport Beach, California.

Who pays the claim in a dog bite case?

Mazow & McCullough

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. Oftentimes can be resolved with the homeowner's insurance company for the homeowner or the keeper of the dog. There may be rental coverage that would provide coverage for the owner or keeper of the dog. Ultimately, if there is no insurance coverage there, you do have a cause of action against the owner or keeper of the dog and it's gonna depend on what types of monies are available to them to compensate you for your injuries.

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

The Roberts Law Firm

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.

Law Offices of James Sokolove, LLC

Birth injury cases are handled on a contingency fee, which means the client pays nothing unless they're successful. This is both for out-of-pocket expenses and any fees for the lawyer.

I'm attorney Jim Sokolove. If you've been injured, call us.

How long can I live in my house without paying the mortgage?

Carl E. Person

A person a can live for free in his house almost two years in New York if you do it this way: you stop paying the mortgage, they foreclose it takes 14 months, and then they have evict you- this may be another four. But that is not what you really want to do. You want to stop paying in order to force a foreclosure and, as quickly as possible, reach a modification agreement and then be a person that pays on a regular basis [so] that you have lawful, proper possession, and the bank is happy.

How does a loan modification work?

Carl E. Person

Loan modification works when you have the borrower and the back agreeing to making a change in the mortgage payments. The facts that are being considered are: Does the borrower have the capacity to pay at the reduced rate? Is the value of the property less so that it's no longer fair to hold the borrower to the higher value because for some reason the borrower may no longer be liable for any deficiency? Various factors need to be brought into play - they negotiate it out; reach a loan modification agreement and that way the homeowner stays in the property and usually pays a reduced monthly rate. I'm Carl Person; I'm a New York lawyer, and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

How bad is the mortgage foreclosure problem in New York?

Carl E. Person

Today we have about 370 foreclosures ever week in the five boroughs, and near the end of the year we're going to have an increase in them. The banks right now are holding bank because of the uncertainty; we don't really know what the federal government plans to do. As I see it, it looks like a giveaway to the banks and not much for the homeowner. So that's something that the homeowners should recognize, that the statutes, so far, don't seem to be helping them. If the government gets its' money back, that means that the homeowner pays in full, and that isn't what they hoped that they're going to get. I'm Carl Pearson , I'm a New York lawyer, and my job is to help people stay in their homes.

Why are insurance companies such a pain to deal with?

Proner & Proner

Insurance companies are big businesses and they have share holders and owners that they have to cater to. And they are trying to make as much money as possible and they do that in part by paying out as little as possible on claims. So if an adjuster pays out less than a case is worth, that adjuster did a good job. If they hire an attorney, that is very skilled, and the accident victim has an attorney that's not so skilled, and the defense attorney for the insurance carrier wins, that's a win for the insurance company. Because the insurance company has more money in their coffers. So insurance companies try to save money by paying out as little as possible in claims. I'm Michal Proner.
