I Was Bitten By A Dog, Can I Sue?

Yes, you can sue for just about anything; the question is whether or not you have the proper legal grounds and authority to win. There are many things to know, here are just a few:

1. You should know your local and state statutes, etc. with regard to law on this area and whether or not there is a strict responsibility issue involved.

2. Did the owner or handler of the dog do something negligently. For example, was that person in violation of the "leash law," etc.?

3. Did the owner of the dog or handler know that the dog had a propensity to bite? Had the dog bitten anyone in the past?

There are many other things to know before you make a decision to sue or not...so, contact an attorney to protect your rights
