Dog Bite Lawyer in New Jersey
Personal Injury Lawyer Representing Animal Attack Injury Victims in Middlesex County, Morris County, Sussex County, Essex County, and Surrounding Areas of New Jersey
The damage done by a dog bite can leave the victim significantly disfigured, disabled and seriously injured. Even an animal with no history of violence, if not properly trained and restrained, has the potential to do serious harm, leaving the attacked person suffering serious physical and emotional trauma. A dog owner’s homeowners insurance typically covers dog bite injuries. Your neighbor’s personal liability is paid by that insurance.
The law is very clear on the matter — dog owners are responsible for the actions of their pet. Failure to properly secure a dangerous dog is considered negligence, and when you or a loved one has been seriously injured in an animal attack or as a result of a dog bite, you may need to consider pursuing legal action to recover fair and full compensation. At Hoyt & Hoyt, PC in New Brunswick and Morristown, we have the experience, the resources, and the proven track record to help you with your Old Bridge dog bite case.
