If you have sustained an injury as a result of being bitten by a dog we can help you claim the compensation you deserve. Your claim can be dealt with on a no win-no fee basis so if your claim is not successful you do not pay for the work we have done.

Bringing a personal injury claim for a dog bite
Such claims are usually brought under the 1971 Animals Act. Under this act, your claim will be based upon whether the dog has been aggressive or has shown behavioural qualities that are out of character. Importantly it must be shown that the owner/keeper of the dog ought to have known that the animal was likely to behave in such a manner.
