Dog Bite & Other Animal Attack Injuries

In the State of New York the owner of a dog or other animal that injures someone is legally responsible for the injuries that the victim sustains if the owner knew or had reason to know that the animal had dangerous or vicious propensities. If a dog has previously bitten someone then its owner is strictly liable for all of the victim's injuries. These injuries often include the victim's medical expenses, residual scarring and need for plastic surgery, any resulting neurological damage as a result of injury to the nerves and the emotional trauma suffered as a result of being attacked by an animal.

A prompt and thorough investigation is required in animal attack cases.
