Every year, thousands of people are attacked by dogs. According to a recent 2-year study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there are upwards of 4.5 million dog bite victims in the United States. Dog bites send nearly 316,000 victims to the emergency room each year, and many of these cases are right here in New Orleans. Sadly, these dog bite statistics seem to increase each year. Postal workers are especially vulnerable to these kinds of attacks.
Most dog attacks can be prevented with simple precautions, such as abiding by leash laws, fencing yards, locking doors and gates, and training or getting rid of vicious dog breeds. When these dog attacks happen, injuries can be extremely serious and result in overwhelming medical bills for the injured victim. In addition, dog bites may leave strong physical and emotional scars on anyone and traumatize young children. While dog bites are the most common type of animal bites, our animal bite law firm can handle any bite or attack that is related to an owner’s negligence.

When you are attacked or mauled by a dog it can be a traumatic experience. People who have been bitten by a dog may experience loss of sleep, fear of dogs, and general trepidation about their dog attack experience.
Anyone who has suffered from a dog bite injury should seek an experienced dog attack attorney. A qualified dog bite or dog attack lawyer is invaluable in sorting through laws, gathering and evaluating medical information, and negotiating with dog owners and their insurance companies.
This is even more true when the dog belongs to a family member or a friendly neighbor, as insurance companies regularly use your relationship with the dog’s owner as a weapon against you. Don’t fall for this tactic. Many times, our personal injury law firm is contacted by a dog owner who feels bad that their dog bit someone, and we are referred to their friend or family member to prevent insurance companies from taking advantage.
