Why it matters
A dog bite is more than “just an accident.”
Dog attacks can cause serious, lasting harm. Understanding what’s at stake is the first step toward holding the right people accountable.
Serious physical injuries
Puncture wounds, deep lacerations, nerve and tissue damage, broken bones, and infection can require surgery and long-term care.
Permanent scarring
Dog attacks frequently leave lasting scars and disfigurement that may need reconstructive procedures.
Lasting emotional trauma
Anxiety, fear of dogs, and PTSD are common after an attack — especially for children.
California strict liability
In California, dog owners are generally strictly liable for bites — you may have a claim even if the dog never bit anyone before.
What you can recover
What a dog bite claim may include
