Frequently Asked Questions

Is the owner always responsible for a dog bite?

Many states hold owners strictly liable; others require showing the owner knew the dog was dangerous.

Who pays for a dog bite claim?

Usually the owner's homeowner's or renter's insurance.

How much does a personal injury lawyer in Brooklyn cost?

Usually nothing up front. Most work on contingency — a percentage of your settlement or verdict — so you pay only if you recover money.

Should I talk to the insurance company?

Be careful. Don't give a recorded statement or sign anything before talking to a lawyer — early statements are often used to reduce claims.

Is there a deadline to file?

Yes. Every state has a statute of limitations, often two to three years from the injury, and sometimes shorter. Talk to a lawyer early.
