Dog Bite Victims Encouraged To Hire A Dog Bite Lawyer

July 6, 2010 - PRLog -- Orange County, USA - Recent studies in the United States have revealed that a dog bite attack occurs every 40 seconds. In most states, the owner of the dog that has attacked is completely liable for any injuries or psychological damage that the victim has sustained. Authorities warn that hiring anything other than a specialized dog bite lawyer may result in a victim not receiving the full amount of compensation that they are entitled to.

"Victims of a dog bite attack often just hire a standard lawyer and this is a huge mistake. People need to understand that certain legislations and rules are involved in a canine attack that only a focused dog bite lawyer understands." explains Ted Kennelly, a dog bite lawyer.

A dog attack can result in permanent disfigurement, scarring, severe lacerations, puncture wounds and even death. Children are more likely to be attacked than adults, so parents are encouraged to watch over their children whenever a dog is present. There are also precautionary measures that can be taken to avoid any dog bite accidents from initially occurring.
