Understanding Dog Bite and Animal Attack Cases
The law treats dogs and other animals as the personal property of their owners. When an animal attacks, the owner is responsible for compensating the victim. Usually, this is covered by insurance of some type, such as:
-
Homeowners insurance
-
Renters insurance
-
Condominium insurance
-
A landlord’s insurance policy
Deciding whether a particular type of coverage applies to your case is a complex issue. Our personal injury attorneys know how to interpret insurance policies, and we will thoroughly analyze the options to find coverage.
What About Farm Animals?
Like the owner of a pet, a farmer is responsible for damage caused by his or her animals. Whether that damage comes in the form of a personal injury or in the form of property damage, the farmer may be liable. In our area, farming is a large industry, and our lawyers have handled a number of cases involving injuries and property damage caused by farm animals.
