  • When to Hire a Phoenix Dog Bite Lawyer

    According to Arizona law, dog owners are liable for damages if their dog bites a person in a public or private place, including the dog owner's personal property, as long as the victim is there legally. 

     

    As a result, the dog owner may be responsible for the following:

     

    • any medical bills associated with the attack or bite
    • loss of wages or future earning capacity
    • pain and suffering
    • emotional or mental trauma
    • wrongful death
  • What to do After a Dog Attack

    If you are the victim of a dog attack or a dog bite in Phoenix, take the following steps:  

     

    1. Identify the dog. This includes identifying its owner and gathering their personal information. When possible, take pictures of the dog or take note of its description.
    2. Collect witness information. Witness testimony can be crucial to the success of your claim. 
    3. Contact the authorities. Maricopa County has specific instructions for victims of dog bites in Phoenix. You can also contact the local police. 
    4. Photograph your injuries. Pictures can help bolster documentation of the attack.
    5. Seek medical attention. Immediately seek treatment from a healthcare professional, no matter how minor your injuries may seem. 
    6. Contact a dog bite lawyer. Phoenix dog bite claims must be filed within one year of the attack. So, act fast to avoid delay.
