Dog Bite Lawyer Claremore, OK

Dog bite victims spend longer in the hospital than other people with similar injuries, and have a higher risk of developing a serious infection, which can make treatment and recovery a challenge. Then, there’s the added risk of rabies. In the painful days following the dog attack, you may be consumed with worry about your physical recovery, and may also be contending with the onset of anxiety or a new phobia. If your thoughts naturally turn to wondering who is going to pay for all these medical bills and your other losses, you’re not unusual. Many dog bite victims are unsure about what their rights are after being attacked, especially when the dog’s owner is hinting (or saying outright) that they did something to make the dog attack.

Oklahoma dog bite laws hold owners liable for any harm their dog causes, regardless of prior aggression. Our Claremore dog bite lawyer can help you pursue compensation for your medical bills (including therapy for psychological trauma), lost wages, and damages for pain and suffering from a dog bite incident.

We gather evidence for your claim by working with expert witnesses, if needed, and build strong arguments to present to the other party and their insurance company. While we often secure fair settlements, we are always ready to go to trial if the insurance company resists. Our lawyers also handle all communications with the dog’s owner, so you are protected from harsh comments or victim-blaming.
