Dog Bite
Compensation for Arizona Dog Bite Victims
If you or your child suffered serious injury or lasting scars as a result of a dog bite in Arizona, time is of the essence if you wish to preserve your right to seek full financial compensation for your medical bills and pain and suffering.
Arizona is what is known as a strict liability state. This means that it is not always necessary to prove that the owner's dog was known to be a biter in order to win a financial recovery for a dog attack.
There is a one year statute of limitation on liability claims relating to dog bites that rely on strict liability. In cases where a dog owner's negligence may be established, that time frame is expanded to two years. It is important to consult an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible. We can step in quickly to document the evidence that may be crucial to winning maximum recovery in a negotiated homeowner's insurance settlement or civil trial.
