Dog Bites Are Serious Injuries

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), four million seven hundred thousand (4.7 million) people are bitten by a dog every year in the United States. Of those, nearly half a million (more than 5 times as many people as can fit into Tiger Stadium) must seek medical treatment, including reconstructive and/or plastic surgery. Often, these bites occur on the neck and face, causing disfiguring injuries.

In many cases, the dog owner and /or his insurance company can be held liable for the medical bills, pain and suffering, and mental anguish caused by the trauma from a dog bite.
