North Charleston Dog Bites Injury Lawyer

Most of us love our pets and consider them part of our family. As much as we give them our love and care, they also give us the same and are loyal to a fault. Who can blame some of us for loving our pets more than we love other humans! Not all of us, however, are kind to our animals and poor treatment of them, in addition to other factors which we as pet owners have no control of, can lead to certain pets becoming aggressive. Even the nicest dog can have a bad day, or have something in its environment cause it to lash out and bite or attack someone.

The way the statute is written in North Charleston is designed to help those attacked by animals. The lawyers at Adegbola Law Firm can assist you in several ways, including providing you with medical treatment so you may recover from your wounds and move on from the trauma if you or someone has recently been attacked and bitten by someone else's dog in North Charleston or anyplace in South Carolina.

Common Causes of Dog Attacks

A dog bite may happen from teasing or unintentional provocation, mainly when unattended children are involved. The dog may attack to defend what it views as its territory if a human enters the property and the dog believes that person shouldn't be there.

Even tamed dogs are capable of developing aggressive behavior. A dog would initially bark to keep others away from what it perceives as its area. When a jogger passes by, and the dog senses that it has been successful in deterring intruders, the dog may grow bolder and start pursuing onlookers. The dog can start attacking bystanders if the owner doesn't stop this behavior.

  • Follow your doctor's advice and receive the necessary treatment.
  • Keep track of all business conversations and any income losses.
    Save all accident-related documentation, including images and witness contact details.
  • Record your medical procedures and emotions in a notebook.
  • Don't state the driver's insurance provider. (Anything you will say eventually be used against you.)
  • Avoid promoting your claim on social media, as doing so might undermine it.
