    • Las Vegas Dog Bite Injury Attorney

    There are many dog owners across the country. While many of these pet owners take excellent care of their pets, those dog owners who are negligent pose a serious risk to society. Statistics show that over 4.7 million people in the United States are bitten by dogs each year. One out of every six dog bites is serious enough to require medical attention. Dog bites can transmit serious illnesses, including rabies, and can cause tissue and muscle damage. In certain cases, survivors of serious dog bites have mobility issues or are mauled to such an extent that they require reconstructive surgery. Sadly, children are often at a high risk of dog bites and to smaller children, these bites may prove fatal. Dog attacks on children are most likely to result in face, head, and neck injuries, which can affect breathing and can cause death.

    At the Law Offices of Wright & Weiner, we represent victims in the Las Vegas area and throughout Clark County, Nevada who have suffered serious injury as the result of an attack by someone else's "pet." Our firm has been dedicated to protecting the rights of the injured for nearly 20 years and in that time, have obtained many favorable verdicts and settlements for dog bite injury victims.

    Homeowner's insurance will typically cover damages such as medical expenses in the past and future, lost wages in the past and future, and pain and suffering. A second avenue of recovery may be against the owner of the premises that rented an apartment to the dog's owner. The premises owner would be responsible only if the dog had a history of biting or viciousness that the premises owner should have known about. Your lawyer will need to carefully assess your dog bite injury case to determine what insurance coverage is available and how you can recover damages for immediate expenses such as medical care.

    Our firm leverages the experience of our litigators to maximize recoveries in dog bite and mauling cases. We represent dog bite cases involving: head trauma, loss of limbs, brain damage, spinal injuries, back injuries, disfigurement, broken bones, bruises, lacerations and any other type of serious injury. If you have suffered injuries after being bitten or attacked by a dog or another animal, it is important to know your legal rights. Contact a Las Vegas personal injury lawyer at our office today for a free consultation. We handle all cases on a contingency fee basis, which means there is no fee for our services unless we recover money on your behalf.
