If you’ve been bitten or attacked by a dog, the physical and emotional impact can be life-changing. We understand how distressing these incidents can be and we’re here to help you claim the compensation you deserve.
One of the most common questions we’re asked is: “What can I actually claim for?” The answer lies in understanding the “heads of claim” which are the different categories of loss and damage that can be included in your dog bite compensation claim.
In legal terms, “heads of claim” refer to the specific types of losses you can recover compensation for. These are typically divided into two main categories:
These cover the pain, suffering, and loss of amenity caused by the injury itself.
These are financial losses and expenses you’ve incurred (or will incur) as a result of the injury.
Dog bite injuries can have long-lasting consequences. Some victims are left with permanent scarring or psychological effects that impact their confidence, relationships, and career. That’s why it’s crucial to work with a solicitor who understands the full scope of your losses and how to evidence them properly.
