Dog Bites

Dogs are often called "man's best friend," but when they bite, they often leave their victims with severe injuries and permanent scars.

It's difficult to assess the full cost of such an injury. After seeking immediate care, victims of serious dog bites will have large medical bills. But other expenses, like cosmetic surgery to reduce scarring, may be faced much later.

Call the experienced dog bite lawyers of Collier & Collier at 804-364-5200. They know what troubles may lay ahead, and can help you evaluate all expenses, ensuring you never settle for less than you deserve.

Virginia allows those injured by dog bites to seek compensation from negligent owners, but the state's dog bite laws can be rather complicated, especially if the dog has no previous history of violent behavior.

For this reason, it is very important to secure an experienced Virginia dog bite lawyer immediately. The attorneys at Collier & Collier pursue all legal avenues in order to provide our clients with the results and compensation they deserve.

Even if the dog has no history of being vicious, there are other ways to prove that the negligence of the dog owner caused the accident. The negligent handling or keeping of a dog by its owner, for example, can be a basis to hold the dog’s owner liable. Also, the dog owner may be held responsible for not immediately stopping the attack.

The law firm of Collier & Collier and our team of experts will carefully collect and evaluate the facts of your case. We will assess the defendant's actions leading up to the incident and do everything we can to ensure you receive the best compensation available for injuries.
