Owners of dogs shall be liable for any damage done by their dog(s) to a person or to any domestic animals or livestock. Each year, millions of people are bitten by animals, especially dogs. While some dog bites are minor, many victims suffer painful injuries and emotional scars. Most people know that the first thing they should do when they are bitten by an animal is seek medical treatment, but few know that their next step should be speaking with an animal bite attorney. While no amount of money can heal your wounds, if you’ve been bitten by a dog or other animal, you may be entitled to compensation for:
The cost of medical treatment
Any income you lost due to time you had to take off from work because of your injuries
Your physical and emotional pain and suffering
