Like any
Personal injury case, there are many variables that go into determining whether or not you have a case you can WIN. In the case of an animal or dog bite, much will be dependent on the animal’s history. Information related to the dog’s history very often must be gathered in order for a person injured by a dog bite to have any chance to recover damages. In addition, variations in the leash laws for dogs can have a significant impact on your recovery.
Since injuries from Dog Bites are frequently covered by homeowner’s insurance coverage, insurance investigators are often at work immediately after a dog attack occurs. The insurance company, like all personal injury claims, wants to pay nothing, or as little as possible. They’re in the business of making a profit, not of paying you. Then on the other side, you have the insurance company who’s job it is to fight to protect the person it insures, the dog owner, from potential responsibility from the dog bite.
