Dog Bites

Hayward, Wisconsin, Attorneys for Dog Bite Victims

Almost every dog owner believes his or her pet would never hurt anyone. Yet, the incidences of dog bites and animal attacks in Wisconsin continue to occur, leaving victims with lifelong emotional and physical scars. The tragedy is that many dog bites could be prevented if owners took basic precautions.

If a dog bit you or your child, the lawyers at Lein Law Offices are here to help. With over 25 years of experience, we have worked with numerous clients to obtain the compensation they deserve for their treatment, pain and suffering. Contact our attorneys for a free consultation.

Dog bites are an especially dangerous category of personal injury. Often, the attack results in catastrophic injuries or even wrongful death. Sepsis is an ever-present concern as healing occurs. In the end, victims may bear permanent scars, physical disfigurement and emotional trauma. Our lawyers understand the pain and care about you and your recovery.

Children are often the victims of dog bites because they are closer to the dog's face. Additionally, they may not know how to behave with strange dogs. Still, a child's curiosity is no excuse for owner negligence or improper methods of restraint for dangerous animals.

When a dog bite occurs, it is essential to seek medical attention immediately, including the administration of rabies shot, if necessary. If possible, obtain the identity of the dog and its owner as well as contact information for the owner and for witnesses. Finally, it is important to take photographs to preserve the evidence. Once medical treatment has been obtained, call our Sawyer County firm.
