If you were attacked by a dog in Montana, you don’t have to deal with your injuries alone. Reach out for a dog bite lawyer to help you recover financially from the attack.
Dogs may be one of the most common pets people choose, but that doesn’t mean they’re always safe to be around. Even the most well-behaved dog may attack without warning, leaving you with serious injuries and trauma caused by the injuries. Unfortunately, the at-fault party may not be willing to compensate you, leaving you seriously injured and struggling to recover from those injuries.
At Craig Swapp & Associates, our Montana injury lawyers understand how serious even a small dog’s bite can be. Fortunately, your Montana dog bite lawyer is here to help you get compensated when a dog bites you, protecting your health and safety when you’re suffering.
Many people don’t think much about the damage a dog bite can do, but your injuries may be devastating. Even a small dog can leave deep puncture wounds, which are difficult to clean. That can lead to serious infections and diseases, including rabies. This virus has no cure, and it can be deadly if you don’t receive emergency treatment.
When dealing with bigger dogs, you may have more severe injuries. A dog’s jaws can break bones, especially in areas with many smaller bones, like the hands. That can lead to permanent damage, including nerve damage and scarring.
When you’re hurt by a dog, you need to know who’s responsible. Luckily, your Montana dog attack lawyer has the right tools for your claim and can help you identify the at-fault party.
Typically, the dog owner is responsible for their dog’s actions. They’re liable for the actions of their dog, even if the dog has never bitten anyone before. Your lawyer can help you prove the dog left you seriously injured and can help you hold the owner responsible.
When you’re hurt by a dog bite, you need compensation that covers all your damages and suffering, not just what the at-fault party is willing to pay. That means you may need to seek both economic and non-economic damages to cover the financial and mental toll a dog bite can have on you.
Unsure what compensation you’re due? Your attorney can help. If you’ve been bitten by a dog, talk to your lawyer about the compensation you’re due, which may include the following:
When you’re hurt by a vicious dog, you may have grounds for a lawsuit. But it can also be difficult to prepare a claim and get compensated for the suffering you’ve experienced.
