| Supreme Court Ruling in Favor of Dog Bites Victims |
A recent ruling in the Ohio state Supreme Court found that dog bite
owners are even more liable than they once were. The court ruled that
dog owners are accountable under state dog bite laws as well as other
laws related to negligence. The ruling came after a young girl suffered
serious head injuries as the result a dog attack. In the civil case a
jury awarded the family compensatory damages but not punitive damages.
The Supreme Court ruled that the family should be allowed to file a
negligence claim against the dog owner as well.
This ruling may have been in the state of Ohio, but it is only a matter
of time before rulings like this one benefit the victims of dog attacks in Los Angeles. Dog owners should and can be held liable for the
actions of their animals. If you or your child have been injured in a
dog attack it is necessary for your to contact an experienced Los Angels dog bite lawyer form the Law Offices of Lee Arter.
