Careful attention
after a dog attack.

Describe the attack and identify the dog

Share the location, date, owner’s information if known, witnesses and any animal-control report. Whether a claim involves a bite or another type of injury affects the legal review.

Preserve a record of the injury

Keep original photographs over time, treatment records, bills and relevant correspondence. Follow your healthcare provider’s advice about care. Describe physical limitations and emotional effects accurately.

Insurance is a question to investigate

Homeowner’s, renter’s or other coverage may be relevant, but exclusions, insured parties and policy limits vary. Do not assume the owner has coverage or that a claim cannot affect them personally.

When a child is injured

A parent or guardian can ask about the child’s claim, anticipated treatment and the steps required for any settlement. Special procedures and deadline questions need individual review; do not assume there is no need to act promptly.

Understand the proposed resolution

Discuss ongoing treatment, potential scarring, coverage and release terms before deciding on an offer. The initial review can identify what information is still missing.

The attorney fee is 32% of gross recovery before case costs. If there is no recovery, clients owe no attorney fee and no case costs. The written agreement explains applicable expenses and deductions. See the fee and costs guide.

Common questions

Before your
first call.

Does the dog need a history of biting?

Do not assume a previous bite is required. California has a dog-bite statute, but its application and any exceptions depend on the circumstances. Tell Brian where the bite happened and who owned the dog.

The owner is a friend. What should I know?

Available insurance can be investigated, but coverage is not guaranteed. Discuss the practical and legal consequences before deciding how to proceed.

How much does representation cost?

The attorney fee is 32% of gross recovery before case costs. If there is no recovery, clients owe no attorney fee and no case costs. The written agreement explains applicable expenses and deductions. Read the fee guide.

What deadlines should I check?

Deadlines depend on the facts, the parties and the type of claim. Public-agency matters and insurance claims can require earlier action. Share the incident date and any deadline letters promptly; do not wait for treatment or negotiations to finish.
