Sacramento Dog Bite Injury Attorney

Dog bites can cause extremely serious injuries resulting in scarring and disfigurement. Some of the most common victims of a dog bite attack are children, whose small size and abrupt movements may make them more susceptible to dog attacks.

Regardless of the reason a dog attacks, it is important for victims to learn about their legal options for seeking compensation. At the Sacramento law office of Noël M. Ferris, clients who have been bitten by a dog are treated with compassion, skillfully guided through the legal process by an attorney with more than 30 years of experience. Premises liability attorney Ferris can help you seek the compensation you need and deserve after a dog attack.

California Dog Bite Laws

California holds dog owners strictly liable for any injuries caused in a dog bite accident. Whether the victim is a trespasser or an invited guest on the premises, the homeowner is responsible for its dog's behavior. Even if the dog has showed no vicious propensity in the past, the owner can still be held liable.

When the Dog Owner Is a Friend or Neighbor

If you have been bitten by a dog belonging to a friend or neighbor, you are probably in a very uncomfortable situation. On one hand, you are suffering with serious injuries and medical bills. But on the other hand, you may not want to take legal action against the dog owner.

In this situation, it is important to think of a dog bite as an insurance issue rather than a "suing" issue. We purchase insurance as a promise of reimbursement for unexpected losses. If you are in need of compensation for medical bills and other damages, attorney Noël M. Ferris can help you proceed in a way that respects the feelings of everyone involved. She will deal with the insurance companies and help you seek the compensation you need and deserve after suffering a dog bite injury
