We've Seen It Before
After over 40 years, we've seen some of the worst cases involving dog attacks and sometimes trial is the only route to take to get just compensation for our clients. We have no problem taking your case to a jury trial if the insurance company won't negotiate an equitable settlement. Although most dog owners are responsible, some have a history of owning or purposely training violent dogs... in our opinion these owners are no different than walking around with a loaded gun and having it accidentally discharge.

Coachella Valley Animal Attack Attorneys

Many insurance companies refuse to insure homeowners who have the following breeds of dogs: Pit Bull, Rottweiler, Chow, German Shepherd, or Doberman Pinscher. If you or a family member was attacked by one of these or any other breed of dog you need the help of the experienced Palm Springs injury lawyers on your side.

Proving Your Dog Bite Case
The more we know about the incident, dog owner and animal the better the case we put together. Once we take your case, our investigators get to work gathering information and evidence. Anything that you can provide helps put the puzzle pieces into place.

Sometimes it's incredibly difficult to prove that the dog owner knew about the dog's aggressive behavior. Unless there is a public record, veterinary report, HOA complaince or animal control report it can be hard to show negligence on behalf of the dog owner.

Our investigation will help you to find out if:

• The dog was vicious or aggressive – Was the dog known to bite or attack people or other animals? Chances are that if a dog has exhibited aggressive behavior in the past they may present an unreasonable risk.
  
• The dog was handled carelessly – Does the owner have a history of allowing the dog to roam freely off-leash or outside of a fence? This could show that the dog owner was negligent in the care of the dog.
  

• The dog owner had knowledge of the dog's aggression – If the dog owner had prior knowledge that their dog had attacked or killed another animal or person the owner should have known it could present a danger.
