Animal and Dog attacks occur all too often and ironically, it is usually not the animals fault for the attack, the culpability falls in the hands of the owner. As the famous qoute goes, "there is no such thing as a bad dog (or other pet for that matter) there is just bad owners." That saying properly describes the legal system's view of liability today. When a domestic animal attacks another human being, the owner of the animal is only liable for damages if the owner is negligent in the control or training of that animal. Proof of that negligence rests on the side of the plaintiff. Therefore, it is very important to choose an attorney that is experienced and qualified to handle your animal attack case.

Dogs bite 4.7 million people in the US each year, causing a good portion to be hospitalized, and even sometimes resulting in death. Other animals such as wolves, large cats, bears, snakes, and dangerous insects can also cause grievous bodily injury or death to human beings if the owner is negligent in their training or control. Don't feel that you are on the hook for your own injuries caused by another person's negligent ownership of their pet.
