Dog Bite and Animal Injury Lawsuit: Our Negligence Lawyers Can Help.

If you or a family member suffered serious injuries from a bite by a dog or other animal, you may be able to seek compensation for your injuries by filing a lawsuit. Complete the form below for a free review of your animal bite case.

According to the 2007 edition of the U.S. Pet Ownership and Demographics Sourcebook, Americans own more than 72 million dogs and nearly 82 million cats.

Thousands more own other pets, including birds, reptiles, as well as other mammals such as rabbits and ferrets.

The majority of pet owners strive to ensure that their animals are not a risk to others; however, the U.S. statistics on animal bite injuries are alarming.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 4.7 million people suffer from animal bites each year, with over 800,000 bites requiring medical attention.

The CDC notes that children aged 5-9 years have the highest rates of injury, with most serious injuries occurring to a child’s face or neck.

The personal injury lawyers at Weitz & Luxenberg have experience in representing those who have suffered serious injuries, including those injured by an animal.

By completing the form below, we can evaluate your case and tell you whether you qualify for a lawsuit to help you obtain compensation for your injuries, medical bills for current and future medical treatment, as well as pain and suffering.
