Clifton Dog Bite Attorney
Were you injured by a dog bite?
When a person is bitten by a dog, it is usually a pet that belongs to a family member or friend. Dog bites are often unexpected, and can cause serious injuries such as deep lacerations, punctures and even broken bones. Many times a bite will also result in scarring and other types of disfigurement. Pet owners can be responsible for the aggressive nature of their dog, especially if their pet has been trained to attack or was abused. A dog can also become hostile if it feels threatened or is protecting its territory. If you or a loved one were hurt in a dog attack, contact a Clifton personal injury lawyer to discuss your case and rights to personal injury compensation. You may be able to file a claim for damages such as:
- Medical treatment
