Although it may seem unfair, in California a dog owner is responsible for all damages caused by their dog should it attack someone The statue applies to all situations when someone is injured by a dog including when it occurs on either private or public property.
There are a few exceptions where a dog owner can defend their case by demonstrating that the victim assumed the risk of being attacked. Some situations which are commonly defendable include when the victim was either trespassing on the owners’ property, in the process of committing a crime, or somehow aggravated the dog into attacking them. This provision allows dogs to maintain their role as a protector for their owners’ homes from burglars and vandals without the fear of incurring a lawsuit.
While ownership of a dog classified as “potentially dangerous” or “vicious” by the state is not illegal, it does carry additional responsibilities which owners are accountable for being aware of. Dogs with these classifications are required to be kept in an enclosure which must both keep the dog from escaping as well as prevent children from entering. These types of dogs are only allowed outside of the enclosure when restrained by a leash and/or muzzle and under the control of a responsible adult. Cities also retain the ability to prohibit the ownership of a vicious dog at any time should they find it not being properly restrained or kept away from the public.
Should you be involved in an unprovoked attack by a dog, it is crucial for your settlement that you seek legal counsel immediately. A skilled California dog bite lawyer will know the steps that must be taken in order to have the victim compensated for medical bills as well as emotional trauma incurred.

I called and told them the situation I was in. They took in my case and actually came to meet with me at my home. They understood how difficult it was for me to go to their offices because I didn't have a car after the accident. Office was professional and helpful! They help with all my doctor appointments and even help me get a rental! I didn't have to do anything but see the doctors to get better. I am definitely feeling a lot better thanks to this firm!
Amazing experience I had with attorney Donald. He was straight forward and had complete control over my case. My settlement was way better than I expected and my body is slowly healing. Call them if you are in the Los Angeles area!
I was in a horrible accident a year ago. When I thought I had no where to go and no one to help. I came across i Accident Lawyers. Matt Palatinus (the case handler) was very helpful. He guided me through the process and made sure I was taken care of in terms of my health. When Matt was busy or away from the desk, he made sure his assistants, Helen and Brigitte, knew my case. His assistants were well knowledgeable about my case and was able to answer all my questions. They were quick and efficient. 5 stars for Matt. 5 stars for Helen. 5 stars for Brigitte.
Recently, I got involved in an automobile accident. Even though I was injured, I received a lot of help from Vivian and attorney Brenda. I felt quite stressed and overwhelmed with the whole procedure, but luckily I had them to guide me through the whole process. They were both extremely helpful, efficient, and informative with my case. I definitely recommend this firm to everyone!
When my parents got into an accident, Atty. Donald Stevenson was there to help us. His service is top-notch and he really cares about his clients. A great person like him is worthy of a 5-star rating. I would also recommend him to others for his excellent service.
