The previous attorney has hit it right on nose. California has a strict liability statute and the owner is liable for any damages caused by his dog biting another person. Consult with an experienced personal injury attorney who handles dog bite cases. Feel free to call me for a free consultation. We handle dog bite cases all over the State of California and are located in Orange County.
