Dog Bites & Dog Bite Injuries – Seek the Advice of a Wisconsin Dog Bite Lawyer at Brabazon Law Office.

     A dog bite can happen to anyone, and unfortunately it is usually without any type of warning. Dog bites are shocking and traumatic, not only for the victims but often times for the owner as well. In a split second, a dog attack can lead to serious injuries such as lacerations, deep scars, nerve damages, rabies, fractured or broken bones, disfigurement, and even death. Dog bite wounds can also result in serious emotional trauma and mental anguish. In some cases, the injured victim may find it difficult to be near dogs again. A Wisconsin dog lawyer can help determine if you may have a dog bite suit as a result of dog bite injuries experienced during an attack.

     Many Wisconsin dog bite injuries can happen in a person’s own house or neighborhood. If you or someone you love was bit by a dog owned by a friend or neighbor, you may find it to be difficult to bring a lawsuit against someone you know on such a personal basis. However, it is important to emphasize that many of these injuries are covered by the dog owners and homeowner’s insurance policy and not by the finances of the dog owner. The injured victim has a legal right to be compensated for the injuries and damages that resulted from the dog attack, and its important that you have an experienced dog bite lawyer to ensure your rights are protected and that a fair and just dog bite settlement is obtained.

      Because Wisconsin takes dog attacks seriously, the Wisconsin dog bite law sets forth a Strict Liability Rule when determining dog bite compensation. This means that any time a dog attacks, unless the victim was trespassing or provoking the dog, the dog owner is automatically held liable for the damages. Wisconsin dog bite law further provides that if the dog has attacked or bitten anyone in the past, the dog owner is liable to the victim for twice the damages incurred from the bite. Again, having an experienced Wisconsin dog bite attorney may make all the difference in how your case settles.

     If a minor child is injured by a dog, the statutory deadline for the filing of a claim and the legal procedures used in resolution are different than for a claim for an adult. No child should have to suffer due to a dog attack. However, if it happens, it is important to make sure your child receives the financial compensation he or she deserves. Damages that the victim of a dog-bite may be entitled to include: medical expenses (past and future), lost wages (past and future), disfigurement and pain and suffering. It may also include benefits for parents, who are also indirect victims of dog-bites.
