Specialized

We are experienced and well-acquainted with every aspect of a personal injury case. A law firm that is devoted solely to personal injury has many benefits to offer to injured people and their families.

We often call ourselves “first responders,” as we tend to urgent, immediate legal matters after a car accident or slip-and-fall injury. At the scene of an accident, you may have called 911 and received help from police, firefighters and ambulance personnel. A skillful lawyer is also a critical contributor in an accidental injury victim’s recovery — and the sooner you have an attorney, the more options there will be to recover compensation.

Thousands of people suffer from animal attacks every year that can cause serious physical injury and long-term adverse effects, especially to children. In Southern California, dog attacks are a common occurrence and can cause infections or diseases that may result in further health complications. When a dog attack is the result of someone’s negligence or provocation, you should speak with our Huntington Beach dog bite injury attorneys. We may be able to help you recover compensation for the pain and suffering you have experienced.

Legal and Liability Issues in Dog Attacks

If you, a loved one or your dog has suffered injuries from a dog bite, you need to know who is potentially liable. Homeowners, developers, government agencies and others can cause situations that lead to dog attacks. Violent encounters with dogs may also involve police, animal control and other law enforcement agencies. Our Irvine personal injury attorneys understand how the law, liability and other legal issues come together during a trial.

At Meyers Burnett, we will walk you through all of the potential issues that may arise when it comes to determining proper compensation for your claim, including:
 

  • Different types of dogs are known to be particularly violent. This may have a huge impact during a personal injury trial.
  • Dogs carry diseases such as rabies, cellulitis, and C. canimorsus infections that may seriously damage the health of the dog bite victim.
  • If a child is involved, the long-term mental and emotional damage suffered during a dog attack can last for years, if not decades.
  • Bite wounds will inevitably result in scars. The question from a compensation point of view is whether they will be disfiguring, disabling or painful.

Whether your accident happened yesterday or some time ago, contact us to learn how our law firm can represent your interests in an effective personal injury claim or lawsuit. Let us explain how we can help you pursue and obtain compensation that you are entitled to.

If you or a loved one has been attacked by a dog, you may be entitled to compensation under dog owner liability laws and other laws. Representation is offered on a contingency basis in most cases — so you won’t owe attorneys’ fees until and unless a settlement or verdict is reached and paid out.
