     According to the Center for Disease Control, every 40 seconds,
someone in the United States seeks medical attention for a dog
bite related injury. The owner of a dog is responsible for the
behavior of the dog and any events or accidents that occur because
of the dog.

 



     When an injury occurs, the owner of the dog may be legally
obligated to pay the victim's damages unless the victim provoked
the attack.  Often times, dog bite victims are compensated for their
injuries by the responsible party’s home owners' insurance policy.
An experienced attorney can help evaluate the circumstances
surrounding a dog bite injury.
