Dog/Animal Bites

Ventura County Dog Bite Attorney

Dogs make some of the best companions, and provide people with unconditional love and loyalty. Unfortunately, despite dogs’ normally friendly and benign nature, sometimes they can turn on humans and attack. When an individual is attacked or bitten by a dog, he or she may sustain life-threatening injuries. If you or a loved one has been attacked or bitten by a dog, it is vital that you contact an experienced attorney. A skilled dog bite attorney can protect your rights and ensure you get the financial compensation you deserve.

Almost five million people are attacked by a dog every year in the United States, and 850,000 people need to be hospitalized or receive medical attention.  Dog bite attacks can lead to an array of severe and painful injuries, such as disfigurement, scarring, infection, fractured or broken bones, wounds, punctures, abrasions, and even death. In addition, victims of dog bite attacks typically suffer from emotional and psychological distress. Because of this, a person who once was very fond of dogs and other animals may now be too afraid to approach a dog, or even walk outside for fear of another attack.  

Under California law, dog owners are held legally accountable if their dog bites or attacks another individual. Attorney Stuart Sherman makes sure that all of his clients receive damages for their injuries, pain, suffering, medical costs, emotional distress, and financial hardship.
