De Vries Shields Chiat Incorporated can assist you with your dog bite claims

We have assisted thousands of victims of dog attacks in the country, where the attack was at no fault of their own.

The emotional trauma sustained from a dog attack can have long-term effects on a person, especially children, where they were attacked without warning, and the incident could have been avoided. Surgery is often the next step after a dog attack, as the wounds from this kind of trauma can be quite severe.

According to the World Health Organisation, dog bites and dog attacks result in millions of injuries each year. This is one of the most common personal injury claims law firms take on in their careers. We have extensive experience in these kinds of cases, with positive outcomes.

Clients who have been a victim of this kind of injury can claim for:

Hospital/surgery expenses
Emotional trauma/counselling
Potential future hospital visits, follow up surgeries
General pain and suffering

At DSC Attorneys, we pride ourselves on our medico-legal experts who have dealt with these cases on a daily basis. We know how to handle these cases, and how to put a case together on our client’s behalf in order to get the dog bite compensation you deserve.

If you were, however, attacked on private property, the dog owner may not be liable for the incident, however, you can still claim for the actions of the dog, should the animal be a certain species of dog that has been trained to attack etc. We will advise the best course of action to take once we have had an initial consult with you.
