Fighting for the Compensation You Deserve After a Dog Attack
A dog bite can be a traumatic experience that leaves both physical and emotional scars. If you or a loved one has been injured by a dog, you may be entitled to financial compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. At Universal Law Firm, APC, our experienced dog bite attorneys are here to stand by your side and help you pursue the justice you deserve.
Why You Need a Dog Bite Lawyer in California
California has strict liability laws when it comes to dog bites. This means a dog owner can be held responsible even if the dog has never shown signs of aggression before. However, insurance companies often try to minimize payouts or deny claims altogether. Our team understands the laws and knows how to build a strong case that protects your rights.
