If a dog attacked you and caused injuries, you may have a right to compensation from the animal\u2019s owner. At JacksonWhite, our skilled team \u2014 led by attorney Jared Everton \u2014 has helped many dog bite victims in Gilbert and nearby areas.<\/p>\n
Dogs bite more than 4.5 million people every year in the U.S., according to the National Library of Medicine. Any dog can bite, even if it has never been aggressive before. Some dogs bite without being provoked or because of fear, surprise, guarding, frustration, or sickness or injury.<\/p>\n
Dog bites can cause mild to severe injuries. Some victims may suffer from puncture wounds, eye injuries, broken bones, scarring, or head, neck, or face injuries. If you or a loved one was bitten by a dog, you should schedule a free consultation with a Gilbert dog bite lawyer immediately \u2014 call us now at (480) 467-4392<\/a>.<\/p>\n According to A.R.S. 11-1025, the owner of a dog that bites another person in a public or private place, including the owner\u2019s property, may have to pay for the damages suffered by the dog bite victim. The dog\u2019s breed does not matter when deciding if a dog is vicious or aggressive.<\/p>\n Arizona is a strict liability state, unlike other states that have a \u201cone bite free\u201d policy. This means that the dog\u2019s owner could be liable for damages or injuries even if they did not know the dog could bite someone.<\/p>\n A dog owner may not have to pay for damages if their dog bites someone who provoked the dog. According to A.R.S. 11-1027, provocation means \u201ccircumstances that would be likely to provoke a dog.\u201d<\/p>\n The court will also consider other factors when deciding liability. A dog owner may still be liable for dog bite injuries that happen when a person is on their property lawfully, such as a guest. However, if the owner has put up warning signs of a vicious dog on the property and a trespasser is bitten, it could hurt a personal injury claim.<\/p>\n If a dog bite accident in Gilbert, Arizona, has injured you, you need to talk to a skilled personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
