Dog Bite Attorneys in Michigan
Compensation for Animal Attack Victims
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 4.5 million people are bitten by dogs in the United States each year. Approximately 20% of these victims (about 885,000 people) require medical attention. In a recent year, more than 31,000 people underwent reconstructive surgery from dog bites.
Dog bites can be particularly devastating, not only because of the pain, physical damage, and scarring that often results, but also because of the psychological trauma inflicted upon victims. In many cases, those injured are unable to defend themselves, which results in significant injuries.
Tragically, almost half of all dog bite victims are children. A dog bite can be a traumatic event that results in serious injury. Under the Michigan Dog Bite Statute (MCL §287.351), the owner of the dog can be liable, even for the first bite.
