Dog Bite Injuries
Assistance from an Injury Attorney in Cape Cod
The state of Massachusetts holds all dog owners and caretakers liable for
the injuries their pets cause, unless the dog owner has a valid defense
under the law. You may be entitled to compensation.

Law Office of Scott B. Brilliant, I am aware that this time in your life can be complicated and the physical
and emotional injuries that you may be suffering can be immense, but I
encourage you to contact a Cape Cod personal injury lawyer right away.
With the retention of my firm, you can work on holding the wrongful owner
liable and receiving the recovery that you deserve.
Medical and Emotional Consequences of a Dog Bite Injury
While most people assume that dogs will be completely friendly, hundreds
of people are injured from dog bites each year. The puncturing effects
a dog's teeth can have on human tissue can be severe and depending
on the type of dog, their jaws can be powerful. Victims are often in need
of immediate medical attention including stitches and surgery.
Children are especially susceptible to bites on their face and a dog bite
can leave lifelong scars and emotional damage. Even if there was no previous
knowledge that the dog was aggressive, individuals who have been attacked
can hold the owner responsible for liability. If it was not you that was
attacked, but your own pet or a loved one, it is important that you contact
the Law Office of Scott B. Brilliant right away.
