If you are bitten by a dog, immediately clean the wound with soap and water to reduce the risk of infection. Seek medical attention to assess and treat the injury, even if it seems minor. Report the incident to local animal control or authorities, and obtain the dog owner’s contact information and any relevant details about the dog’s vaccination history. Document your injuries and follow all medical advice.
While you can handle a dog bite claim on your own, hiring a lawyer can improve your chances of receiving fair compensation, especially if the case involves severe injuries or disputes over liability. An experienced personal injury lawyer can help gather evidence, negotiate with insurance companies, and advocate for your rights to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
In California, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim, including dog bite cases, is generally two years from the date of the injury. However, it’s important to consult a lawyer promptly to ensure that all necessary documentation is collected and that your claim is filed within the appropriate time frame.
To prove liability in a dog bite case, you need to show that the dog owner was negligent and that their negligence led to your injury. This typically involves demonstrating that the owner knew or should have known about their dog’s aggressive tendencies, failed to restrain or control the dog, or violated local leash laws or other regulations. Evidence such as witness statements, medical records, and reports to animal control can support your claim.
Compensation for a dog bite injury may include medical expenses, such as treatment for the wound, potential surgeries, and follow-up care. You may also be entitled to compensation for lost wages if the injury affects your ability to work, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and any long-term effects or scarring resulting from the bite.
Yes, you can file a claim if a dog bites you, provided that the dog owner was negligent or failed to control their pet. California law holds dog owners responsible for injuries their pets cause, especially if the dog has a history of aggressive behavior or if the owner failed to take reasonable precautions. A personal injury lawyer can help you determine the best approach for pursuing compensation.
After an accident, prioritize safety by moving to a secure location and seeking immediate medical attention, even if injuries seem minor. Document the scene by taking photos and gathering witness information, and file a police report to ensure an official record. Keep detailed records of all medical treatments and related expenses. Before speaking with insurance companies, consult a personal injury lawyer to protect your rights and ensure your claim is handled properly.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage. In severe cases, additional compensation for long-term disability or loss of quality of life may also be pursued.

Many personal injury cases are settled out of court through negotiations. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your case may proceed to court, where a judge or jury will decide the outcome.
The timeline for resolving a claim varies depending on the complexity of the case and whether it goes to trial. It could take anywhere from several months to a few years, depending on the circumstances.
