Compensation for Your Injuries After a Dog Bite
A dog bite or attack can be more than just painful. It can cause physical and emotional scars. When a child is involved, a dog bite is particularly devastating. At the Michigan law firm, White Law PLLC, we help dog bite victims obtain the compensation they need to recover from their injuries. We have filed successful claims for hundreds of dog bite victims and are thoroughly familiar with the process.

How an Attorney Can Help After a Dog Bite
Our law firm has the resources available to take on the insurance company that carries homeowners coverage for the dog owner. Our process involves steps such as these:
- Determine the extent of the injuries through a medical evaluation. Will reconstructive surgery be needed? Will the individual require extensive therapy or psychological counseling?
- Identify the dog owner and determine whether there is homeowner liability insurance.
- Decide whether the victim was legally on the property where the attack occurred.
- Find out whether other insurance coverage may be involved. For example, mail carriers are covered by the federal government. The existence of a government policy does not mean that an individual cannot take independent action against the dog owner and his or her insurance company. Our lawyer will advise if the attack occurred during the course of a person's job duties.
Insurance companies are usually reluctant to pay the entire amount, even when the cost of the injury is well-documented. Our law firm has years of experience dealing with insurance companies. We understand how they work and how they review dog bite claims. We use this knowledge and experience to obtain the maximum amount of compensation possible.
You Pay No Legal Fees Until You Receive Compensation for Your Injuries
Our firm handles dog bite cases on a contingency basis. This means that we charge you only when we have successfully obtained compensation for your injuries and associated costs. If we are not able to recover payment, you owe us nothing.
