Understanding your rights after a dog bite in California can be confusing. In the video below, we explain how California’s strict liability law works and what victims should do immediately after an attack.

I handle dog bite cases in Glendora, across all of Los Angeles County, and in nearby communities including Agoura Hills, Alhambra, Arcadia, and Artesia, and other surrounding areas.

🧑‍⚖️ Why Choose a California Dog Bite Lawyer?

Dog bite cases involve unique legal issues. Insurance companies often argue that the victim provoked the dog, or that the owner didn’t know the dog was dangerous. My office knows how to defeat those arguments and pursue maximum compensation for serious injuries and permanent scarring.

🐾 What Makes Dog Bite Claims Unique in California

Dog bite claims involve special rules that most people – and many adjusters – don’t fully understand.

Under California’s dog bite statute, many owners are strictly liable when their dog bites someone who is lawfully on public or private property – even if the dog never bit anyone before.

The main battle in these cases is often over the value of your injuries, not just who is at fault.

🐶 Who I Help After a Dog Bite in Glendora

No matter where a dog attack occurred in Glendora or throughout Los Angeles County, I am available to help victims recover medical bills, scarring compensation, and emotional damages.

I represent:

  • Adults and children injured in dog bites
  • Delivery drivers, postal workers, and gig workers
  • Guests, renters, and lawful visitors attacked at homes or businesses
  • Pedestrians and bicyclists attacked on the street or sidewalk

I handle cases throughout Glendora, all of Los Angeles County, and surrounding areas including Agoura Hills, Alhambra, Arcadia, and Artesia.

⚖️ Potentially Liable Parties in California Dog Bite Cases

Every case is different, but in many California dog bite cases one or more of the following may be responsible:

  • The person or family who owns the dog
  • Property owners who allowed a known dangerous dog on the premises
  • Homeowners and renters whose insurance may cover the attack
  • Businesses that allowed an unsafe dog on the property

Part of my job is to find every possible source of insurance and compensation so that you are not left paying the price for someone else’s negligence.

🩺 Common Injuries in Dog Bite Cases

People often underestimate just how serious a dog bite can be, including:

  • Deep puncture wounds and lacerations
  • Damage to nerves, muscles, and tendons
  • Serious infections, scarring, and disfigurement
  • Facial injuries and eye trauma
  • Emotional trauma, fear of dogs, and long-term anxiety

Part of a strong case is fully documenting both the physical and emotional impact of the attack.

⭐ California Dog Bite Liability – Strict Liability

Unlike many states, California law (Civil Code §3342) makes dog owners strictly liable when their dog bites someone—whether or not the owner was negligent and even if the dog never bit anyone before.

You don’t need to prove the owner was careless.

🐾 Children Are Often the Victims

Most dog bites in California involve children under 12. These injuries often involve permanent scarring, nerve damage, facial injuries, and emotional trauma. Our office handles serious dog bite cases throughout the state.

💰 Financial Recovery in California Dog Bite Claims

The value of a dog bite case in Glendora can vary depending on the injuries, scarring, location of the attack, and available insurance coverage.

Depending on the facts of your case, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Past and future medical bills
  • Plastic surgery and scar revision
  • Time off work now and in the future
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
  • Visible scarring and changes to daily activities

My goal is to fight for the full value of your case – not just whatever the insurance company first offers.

📌 Common Dog Bite Locations

Dog attacks commonly occur at:

  • parks
  • apartment complexes
  • private homes
  • public streets
  • playgrounds
  • restaurant patios
  • mail delivery routes
  • AirBnB properties
  • dog-friendly retail locations

⏱ Steps to Take After a Dog Attack in California

California law only gives you a certain amount of time to act after a dog bite.

After a dog bite in Glendora, you should:

  • Get immediate medical care and follow your doctor’s orders
  • Make an official report so there is a record of the attack
  • Take photos of injuries and the scene if possible
  • Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies before speaking with a lawyer

Calling a lawyer early helps preserve evidence and prevents costly mistakes.
