We are one of the leading Temecula dog bite attorneys, and unfortunately, we have to deal with these cases on a seemingly ever-increasing basis. No one thinks that their dog is a dangerous animal that needs to be kept under lock and key, but It’s a little too easy to sometimes forget that dogs are still animals.

Despite their friendly and often loving nature, from time to time even the nicest dog can get spooked and bite a human. When this happens it’s distressing for the dog owner, who more often than not is a responsible member of the Temecula community. Many people are often mortified at the thought of their dog harming someone. But that doesn’t change the fact that the person who has been bitten is going to experience an uncomfortable amount of pain and discomfort while the wound heals. Additionally, there are numerous medical expenses and jabs that need to be accounted for (and potential losses of earnings while treatment is received).

If you’re unlucky enough to experience a dog bite in Temecula, we’re here to help. We have extensive experience in helping people receive compensation in these situations, and our team of attorneys will do all of the hard work for you.

Being attacked by a dog, regardless of it’s size is no “small” deal. Big or small, an open wound with an animal’s saliva can lead to severe infections and in some cases, the amputation of a body part can be the immediate result. If you or a loved one has been bitten by someone’s pet, the dog bite laws implemented in California are in your favor. California is known as a strict liability state. The law is very simple – California’s dog bite law, section 3342 of the Civil Code, states that the owner of any dog is liable for damages if:

The damages were caused by a dog bite, and the person bitten was in a public place or lawfully in a private place.

Although this statute does have an exception if the dog is carrying out police or military work resulting in bodily injuries to an individual. For more information contact us today for a free case evaluation.
