I love dogs.  I really do, but some dogs are dangerous.   Most are not and are completely lovable.  My family growing up treated dogs as members of the family, and we all still do.  However, being attacked by a vicious dog can cause sever injuries or even death.  Young children are especially susceptible for various reasons.  For one, they can be fearless.  The other reason is that they just don’t know better yet.  In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 4.7 million Americans are bitten by dogs every year.  And of those, 800,000 caused serious injuries that require medical attention and treatment.

Many times a dog bite injury may result in permanent scarring and nerve damage.  Psychological harm and fear of dogs may last beyond the actua

l injury.  One might become scared of dogs on the street or at the park.  Some may even become a little weary of their own pets.  This is truly sad.

If you were bitten by a dog, then you  may be allowed to recover under the law.  If you missed work or lost earnings because of the injury, then it may be recoverable under Georgia law.  Also, if you have medical bills or hospital bills or imaging bills, then those may be recoverable, as well.  Also, the pain and suffering, including mental anguish, may be recoverable, as well.  Also, emotional distress, disability, disfigurement, wrongful death, scarring, loss enjoyment of life. In addition, injury victims may be entitled to recover for “special” or “economic” damages related to items such as past, present and future medical bills, lost wages and future earnings, and other out-of-pocket expenses.It is important to contact an experienced personal injury lawyer to help you with your case.  If you have been bitten by a dog or attacked by an animal and suffered injuries, then contact your dog bite lawyer today for a free consultation.
