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 Roseville, across all of Placer County, and in nearby communities including Auburn, Colfax, Lincoln, and Loomis, 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

California’s dog bite laws create unique rights and responsibilities for owners and injured victims.

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.

In many cases, liability is clear – the insurance company simply argues about paying full and fair compensation.

I represent:

• Guests, renters, and lawful visitors attacked at homes or businesses
• People bitten by off-leash or improperly controlled dogs in public

I handle cases throughout Roseville, all of Placer County, and surrounding areas including Auburn, Colfax, Lincoln, and Loomis.

⚖️ Who May Be Legally Responsible for a Dog Bite in Roseville?

Depending on the facts, several different people or entities may share responsibility for a dog attack:

• The dog’s legal owner
• Property owners who allowed a known dangerous dog on the premises
• Homeowners and renters whose insurance may cover the attack
• Commercial property owners that failed to keep visitors safe from a known dangerous dog

I carefully investigate each case to identify all responsible parties and all available insurance policies so that you are not left paying the price for someone else’s negligence.

🩺 Common Injuries in Dog Bite Cases

Dog bites can cause far more than simple puncture wounds, including:

• Deep puncture wounds and lacerations
• Damage to nerves, muscles, and tendons
• Serious infections, scarring, and disfigurement
• Facial injuries and eye trauma
• Psychological trauma, anxiety, and PTSD

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.

💰 What Compensation May Be Available

The value of a dog bite case in Roseville 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
• Reconstructive procedures and scar repair
• Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
• Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
• Disfigurement and loss of enjoyment of life

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