Animal & Dog Bites
More than 4.7 million people in the United States are bitten by dogs on an annual basis and approximately one out of every six bites are serious enough to require medical attention. Owners of dogs, not the breed or the individual dogs, are responsible when bites or attacks occur. If you live in the Chicago area, and have you suffered injuries after being bitten or attacked by a dog or another animal, it is important to know your legal rights.
Your ability to recover compensation depends on where you were bitten or attacked, as laws concerning animal and dog bites vary between states, counties and cities. Lawyers in our firm can assist you in determining your rights under these various laws, as well as help with insurance claims and requests for compensation.
