What do I have to Prove in Order to Have a Dog Bite Case?

In order to bring a case against a dog owner or somebody who is in control of a dog, for that dog biting or attacking you, you have to prove only that you have been injured by that dog. In Massachusetts we have a strict liability standard.  If that dog bites you, you can bring a claim, unless you have teased or tormented that dog.
