We represent victims in Massachusetts who have suffered injuries from dog bites and other animal attacks. Our team fights to hold negligent animal owners accountable and secure fair compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and ongoing care. Below are examples of cases we have successfully resolved for our clients.
$450,000 for Severe Dog Bite Injuries
We represented a 15-year-old boy who was viciously attacked by a neighbor’s dog while visiting their home. The attack caused a fractured hand and wrist, and numerous bites and lacerations to his head, face, arms, legs, and chest.
This resulted in several hundred stitches and weeks of hospitalization. Many wounds were initially exposed “to the bone,” and our client continues to suffer permanent scarring, physical limitations, and severe emotional trauma. We secured a $450,000 settlement to help address his medical needs and ongoing recovery.
$225,000 for Dog Bite to the Face
Our firm was hired by a 49-year-old woman who was bitten in the face by a neighbor’s dog while visiting their home to watch a New England Patriots game. The attack left jagged scars on her cheek and eyebrow, and despite plastic surgery, she continues to experience permanent disfiguring scarring and ongoing pain.
The dog’s owner claimed the bite was provoked, but we proved the dog had a history of aggressive behavior and the owner failed to warn our client. We secured a $225,000 settlement to compensate her for her injuries and lasting impact.
$210,000 for Dog Attack at Public Event
We represented a client who was attacked by a rescue dog at a large outdoor public event. While dogs were permitted at the event, our client argued that this particular dog, given its history of prior biting incidents, should not have been present. After filing a lawsuit and presenting the necessary evidence to establish the dog owner’s responsibility, we secured a $210,000 settlement at mediation.
