Wisconsin and Minnesota are truly great places for dog lovers. Most dog owners are responsible and take the safety of their pets and their neighbors seriously. Unfortunately, some people recklessly put others’ health in jeopardy by not controlling their dogs. The dog bite attorneys of Bye, Goff & Rohde know that injury and suffering often follow.
The injuries you can suffer from a dog attack can be severe. Torn skin, scarring, maiming, and disfigurement often result from bites. Even broken bones and back or neck injuries can result from being knocked over by a large dog. Additionally, the psychological trauma of surviving such an attack can leave unseen emotional scars.
An outright attack by an animal is not the only way dogs can injure people. Larger canines have the strength to take down grown adults and even trample smaller children. A dog can knock you off your bike causing injury as well. A dog running in front of your car may cause an unavoidable accident.
The law holds dog owners responsible in the event of an attack on a person or child.
If found liable, the dog owner must compensate you for:
In addition, if the dog is labeled dangerous due to a previous attack, Wisconsin law requires damages for injuries be doubled.
If the owner was negligent in restraining their dog so that the dog caused your bicycle accident, auto accident, or an injury from some other accident, the owner is responsible to compensate you for your losses.
