Dog bites and Dog Attacks

Dog bites and attacks can result in serious injury to the victims.  In Orange County leash laws and requirements for how known violent dogs are kept are very strict and designed to protect the public from personal injury.  Unfortunately many owners do not abide by the ordinances in place and either leave their dog unleashed or while on a leash cannot control them. 

If you or a loved one is bit by a dog you may have an Orange County Personal Injury claim and we can help.  The most important thing to do is to seek medical attention immediately after being bitten by a dog.  Dogs can carry vicious diseases such as rabies that can be transferred through a bite.  In addition a severe dog bite may require stitches depending on how deep the lacerations are. 

Once you have sought medical attention you need to identify the dog responsible and the owner.  Next it is strongly recommended that you consult with a qualified Orange County Personal Injury Attorney who is experienced with dog bites and can file a suit against the owner if they cannot agree to a suitable compromise.

Our Orange County Personal Injury Lawyers are available to you at all hours of the day.  You can also fill out our Orange County Personal Injury case evaluation.  Once we receive the information a capable OC Accident and Injury Attorney will give you a call to discuss the case and what options you have.
