Who pays the settlements on most dog bite cases?

When a dog’s owner is legally responsible for his/her dog attacking another person or animal, his/her insurance company will typically pay the compensation, and the very fact that insurance companies are typically involved in these cases makes the help of an attorney essential for a successful case and full compensation for your injuries. If you or a loved one has been injured in a dog bite attack.

We at 844 See Mike are here for you every step of the way to ensure that your rights are protected and you are fully compensated for your injuries and losses, and this includes working on your behalf to ensure a favorable settlement.

In 510 ILCS of Illinois state law, the owner of a dog is defined as: “‘Owner’ means any person having a right of property in an animal, or who keeps or harbors an animal, or who has it in his care, or acts as its custodian, or who knowingly permits a dog to remain on any premises occupied by him or her.”

Many insurance policies only cover damages to a certain extent, which means the dog’s owner may also be pursued for the remaining compensation. With the help of an experienced personal injury attorney, you can successfully pursue all involved parties for compensation, regardless of the owner’s insurance policies, and recover for damages such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

We at 844 See Mike are proud to serve our fellow citizens in personal injury cases, including when you or a loved one has been injured in a dog bite attack, and we are fully committed to protecting your rights and ensuring that the dog’s owner is held legally accountable when negligence occurs. We will fight until the very end to ensure that you are fully compensated for all injuries and losses resulting from the accident, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering, and you won’t owe us a dime for our services.
