Animal Attacks

Northeast Ohio Animal Bite Lawyers

Dog bites are a serious problem in America today. According to the U.S. Department of Human and Health Services, more than 800,000 Americans seek medical treatment for dog bites each year.

Victims of animal attacks, including those from dog bites and other animal-inflicted injuries, are at risk for infection and may require plastic surgery to reconstruct damaged parts of the body and to prevent or mitigate permanent scars.

Discuss your legal rights with an experienced scar and injury attorney after a dog bite or an attack by livestock (such as a bull) or an exotic pet (such as a tiger, snake or parrot). Contact an attorney at the law offices of Willis & Willis Co., L.P.A., to schedule a free initial consultation. Explore relevant issues including:

• Insurance: whose insurance is responsible?
• Medical care: the importance of prompt, high-quality evaluation, treatment, and care by qualified doctors
• Tangible losses to victims: lost wages, loss of career options, and medical expenses
• Intangible but real losses: pain and suffering, psychological trauma, and social consequences of scarring
