Enlisting the Help of a St. Louis Dog Bite Lawyer
According to Missouri law, a dog owner is liable for injuries from an unprovoked dog bite as long as the dog bite victim is lawfully on public or private property, including on the dog owner’s property.
There is one catch that St. Louis dog bite victims should be aware of, however, and that is the fact that if it is determined that the victim held some percentage of fault concerning the incident, damages owed will be reduced by that amount.
So, for example, if the dog bite victim is found to be 30% liable for the dog bite incident and the compensation award for damages is $10,000, they will only be entitled to $7,000 for damages.
Responding to a St. Louis Dog Attack
If you or a loved one has suffered a dog bite in St. Louis, it is advised that you take the following steps:
- Identify the dog and its owner, gathering as much personal information as possible.
- Photograph the dog or make a mental note of what it looks like.
- Collect witness information because their testimony can be crucial when filing a claim.
- Contact the authorities.
- Photograph your injuries for better documentation.
- Immediately seek treatment from a medical professional, no matter how minor your injuries may seem.
