Helping You Recover From Dog Bite Injuries
Typically, the victims of dog bites are children or vulnerable adults. For children in particular, the impact of a dog bite is serious. The scarring can be both physical and emotional, remaining with the child forever.
At the law firm of Zanella, Boath & Associates in Stratford, Connecticut, our attorneys are committed to getting fair compensation for adult and children victims of animal attacks, including compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages and more.
The Challenges of Dog Bite Cases
Proving negligence (liability) in dog bite cases is often the easy part. The law is clear. If a dog causes an injury, the owner is responsible. It doesn't matter what breed of dog is involved; it does not have to be a typically “dangerous” breed. It doesn't matter if it is a pit bull or a golden retriever.
The real challenge is determining the amount of compensation necessary to cover scarring injuries. The impact of these injuries may not be understood as easily as a brain injury or a back injury. Our lawyers will work with medical professionals and economic experts to determine a fair amount of compensation, and we will use these experts to help convince a jury to provide you the appropriate reward if we have to take the case to trial.
Being Aggressive Means Going to Trial
In dog bite cases, we are facing the homeowner’s insurance company. These are big businesses, businesses that are often unwilling to compromise because they are too interested in protecting their bottom line.
We will make it clear to the insurance company that we will accept nothing less than fair compensation. We will do the work and put together a solid case. If they still won’t do what is right, we will take the matter into a courtroom to let a jury decide.
