$30,000 Settlement – Dog Bite Injury

Geller Legal | Personal Injury Attorneys obtained a $30,000 settlement for a client injured in a dog bite incident.

Our client was lawfully present when the defendant’s dog suddenly attacked and bit the client, causing puncture wounds and lacerations that required medical treatment. The injuries resulted in pain, medical expenses, and scarring.

Under California law, dog owners are strictly liable for injuries caused by their dogs, regardless of whether the dog had previously shown aggressive behavior. Despite this clear legal standard, the insurance carrier initially attempted to minimize the claim and the extent of our client’s injuries.

Geller Legal gathered the medical records, photographs of the injuries, and supporting documentation establishing liability and the full extent of the client’s damages. Through strategic negotiation and persistent advocacy, our firm secured a $30,000 recovery for the injured client without the need for litigation.

This case highlights the responsibility dog owners have to control their animals and the importance of experienced legal representation in obtaining fair compensation for injured victims.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
