California assigns fault percentages in many dog bite cases. We assess liability, gather evidence, and negotiate with insurers to maximize your recovery while ensuring you’re not overburdened by responsibility.
While you can start a claim on your own, having a lawyer helps protect your rights, manage deadlines, collect necessary documents, and handle negotiations with insurance companies.
Compensation may include medical expenses, lost wages, rehabilitation costs, and pain and suffering. Non-economic damages can be significant, depending on your injuries and impact on life.
In California, the statute of limitations for dog bite claims is generally two years from the date of the injury, but some circumstances can shorten or extend that period.
Some cases settle out of court, while others go to trial. We evaluate the best path for your case based on liability, damages, and insurance dynamics.
We operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and only succeed if we win or settle your claim.
If the dog owner is uninsured, we still review options, including whether other parties may be liable or whether underinsured motorist or homeowners’ coverage applies.
Case duration varies with complexity, evidence availability, and court schedules, but we strive for timely resolution while pursuing maximum compensation.
