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 Huntington Beach, across all of Orange County County, and in nearby communities including Aliso Viejo, Anaheim, Brea, and Buena Park, 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.

That means the real fight is not usually about whether the dog owner is responsible, but how much your case is worth.

? Victims I Represent in Dog Bite Cases

No matter where a dog attack occurred in Huntington Beach or throughout Orange County 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

• Visitors, tenants, and invitees bitten on someone else’s property

• People bitten by off-leash or improperly controlled dogs in public

I handle cases throughout Huntington Beach, all of Orange County County, and surrounding areas including Aliso Viejo, Anaheim, Brea, and Buena Park.

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

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

• 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

• Commercial property owners that failed to keep visitors safe from a known dangerous dog

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

Dog attacks can leave both visible and hidden injuries that last a lifetime, including:

• Tears, punctures, and crushing injuries

• Nerve damage or loss of feeling

• 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.

? Damages You May Recover in a Dog Bite Case

The value of a dog bite case in Huntington Beach 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

• Physical pain and mental anguish

• 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.

• parks
