DOG BITES

A dog bite or attack can be a traumatic and terrifying event that results in serious injury. It is estimated that most victims of dog bite injuries are children under 12 years of age, most of which are bitten on the face.

These traumatic events often result in serious injuries, including scarring, nerve damage, disfigurement or death. These attacks can also cause permanent psychological harm. In many cases, the victim of a dog bite has a legal right to recover damages.

Massachusetts is a strict liability state with respect to dog bites. The owner does not need to be negligent in order to be held responsible for the damages caused by the dog. It is not necessary to prove that the dog is vicious or has caused any injuries in the past. So long as the victim was not trespassing or provoking the dog, the owner may be liable.
