Dog Bite Injuries

Dog Bite – Personal Injury Attorneys serving Grand Rapids, Michigan and West Michigan

The Michigan Dog Bite Statute provides that the owner of a dog is absolutely liable to one whom his or her dog bites irrespective of the location of the victim when the dog bites them, unless provoked.

Immediately following a dog bite, medical attention should be sought for the injuries and a report filed with the local animal control agency. The agency may quarantine the dog and check for rabies.

Dog owners are provided insurance coverage through their homeowners policy. Insurance companies are protected by experienced adjusters and legal counsel whose purpose is to settle your claim for the least amount of money. To protect your rights, you need an experienced, diligent and aggressive attorney on your side.
