Dog Bite Third Party Liability
Dog bites cause injury to thousands across the state of Arizona and the rest of the country every year. Some of these are relatively unavoidable, tragic mistakes. Others are caused by willful neglect or inattention to a dangerous situation. In either case, the victim often deals with some extremely high costs including money spent on medical bills, time in recovery and possibly disfigurement of the face or other areas of the body. Recovering from a dog bite can be painful in more than one way, and victims often rely on professional Phoenix dog attack lawyers to help them during the aftermath of a dog bite incident.
Third Party Liability in a Dog Bite Case
In many dog bite cases, the suit is simple; the victim of the injury is trying to recover costs from the owner who is responsible for a lack of compliance with state law. However, sometimes, third party liability affects a case. One of the most common third party liability situations is when the victim experiences injury in the course of his or her work. For example, this could happen when someone employed as a mail carrier suffers a dog attack. In these kinds of cases, a dog bite lawyer may need to assess how worker's compensation claims are "stacked" against any personal injury settlement from a claim against the dog's owner. Another common third party liability situation occurs when a rental property owner has responsibility for protecting residents from dog attacks.
Having an inexperienced lawyer or no lawyer at all can complicate the processing of multiple claims against each other, and victims can lose out. That's why it's so important to consult a skilled and attentive dog attack lawyer if you are interested in pursuing a personal injury claim after experiencing a dog bite.
