Q: My child was bitten by a neighbor's dog and the neighbor refuses to pay the medical bills. What should I do?

A: It is often difficult for people to accept the fact that their beloved pet has done something horrible. Dogs, as well as many other domesticated animals, have become such an every day part of our culture and lives that they are frequently considered a part of the family. However, this does not remove any blame or liability from the owner of the animal. The simple fact of the matter is that pet owners have a responsibility for their pets and what their pets do. Every year in the U.S. there are over 4.5 million dog bites reported. Someone must take responsibility for this! The Law Offices of Van Dorn & Curtiss will take your case to court and win. If you or a loved one have been injured as the result of a dog bite, contact our office now for a free consultation of your claim at 1-866-632-8980.
