Dog bite injuries can be both physically and emotionally devastating, often leading to serious medical complications and long-term consequences. In California, strict liability laws hold dog owners responsible for the injuries their pets cause, even if the dog has never shown aggression before. This means that if you or a loved one has been bitten or attacked by a dog, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. Dog attacks can result in:

• Deep lacerations and puncture wounds, which may require stitches or surgery

• Infections, including serious conditions like rabies or cellulitis

• Nerve and tissue damage, leading to mobility issues or chronic pain

• Scarring and disfigurement, which may require cosmetic procedures

• Emotional trauma, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and fear of animals

• Lost wages and financial burdens, due to time off work for medical treatment and recovery
