The Time & Resources to Gain Maximum Settlement

Many people do not take dog bites as seriously as other personal injury accidents, because they do not see a person as responsible. Do not make the mistake of negotiating your settlement on your own. There is often strict liability in these cases, and Georgia has laws protecting the rights of animal attack victims. We understand the law and we will help you seek the compensation you deserve.
After your attack, we will take a look at your case and explain your options. Many Georgia counties and municipalities have strict leash laws, and Georgia follows the one bite rule. If a dog has bitten before, its owner is liable for subsequent bites. Even if you were the victim of a dog's first bite, you still can still file a claim against the owner, if proven negligent, in order to make sure your medical bills are taken care of.
Dog bites can cause major injuries, and we will make sure that the judge and jury in your case understand the impact of your injuries on your everyday life. As we handle your legal concerns, we will also make sure that you get the medical care you need. Whether you have been briefly disabled or you have suffered permanent scarring, we can help you find a reputable doctor who can take care of your immediate and long-term medical concerns.
