Houston Dog Bite Attorney
Helping Victims of Dog Bites Get the Compensation They Deserve
Pets are a cherished part of so many individuals’ and families’ lives that sometimes it’s hard to believe that they are still animals with instincts. However, legally speaking, pets are property of their owners and those owners are responsible for anything the pet does. Under personal injury law, owners are responsible for injuries caused by their pets.

What Should I Do If I’m Bitten by a Dog?
Dog attacks can cause serious injury. If you’ve been attacked there are a number of steps you can take not just to ensure your health and safety, but secure the information needed to pursue any potential legal action.
If you are bitten by a dog, you should:
- Seek medical attention. This includes any necessary inoculations.
- Photograph any of the injuries caused by the dog.
- If you don’t know the owner of the dog, find out.
- Consult a skilled dog bite attorney about the attack.
We understand that some clients may be hesitant to move forward with an injury claim, especially if the dog owner is a friend, relative, or neighbor. You should know that most homeowners’ or rental insurance policies cover liability for dog bites, so the dog owner will not necessarily have to pay for the damages out of pocket. We can also assess your situation to determine other possible sources of compensation available to you.
