Seek legal help

Most dog bite cases are settled out of court and paid by homeowner’s insurance.   However, getting the compensation you deserve can prove difficult, especially when the injury is serious.

The Law Offices of Larry H. Parker has seasoned dog bite lawyers who know how to maximize recovery in dog bite cases.  The average person has no knowledge of estimated future medical costs or what compensation they are entitled to by law.  Each situation is unique, and we prepare your case based on specific circumstances relating to you or your loved one’s dog bite.

Under California dog bite law, strict liability applies, which means if we can prove that injury resulted from the dog bite, and you or your child were lawfully on the grounds where the dog bit you, the owner is liable to cover damages, regardless of whether or not that dog has been violent before.
