We’re Ready to Pursue Your Injury-Related Losses

After suffering harm, you can recover compensation from the dog’s owner. Depending on your injury’s severity, you could seek: 

Medical Treatment Costs

After the dog bite, you may have required emergency room care, such as stitches or antibiotics. You may have needed reconstructive surgery to address any scarring or disfigurement. With our team’s help, you can recover all the medical costs associated with your injuries. 

Lost Income

You may have lost income while recovering from your injuries. We’re prepared to seek your lost: 

• Tips 
• Commissions
• Wages
• Bonuses
• Freelance contracts 
• Performances 

We will also seek recovery for loss of future earning capacity, if your injuries will affect your earning ability. 

Pain and Suffering

Suffering a dog bite is more than painful; it can cause lifelong trauma. Pain and suffering can compensate you for the trauma of suffering harm. We will evaluate every aspect of your situation to determine what you need. 

Emotional Distress

A dog bite can cause you to develop anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). You could even have sleep issues. We can include emotional distress in your claim if the dog bite caused any harm to your mental health. 

Our attorneys will fight for the maximum compensation available to you. We will work tirelessly to hold the liable party accountable, so you can move forward with your life.

You Have Multiple Financial Recovery Options

After a dog bite, you have legal options. Consider the following: 

• You can file a claim with the at-fault party’s insurance provider. For instance, if you were bitten while visiting a friend’s house, you can file a claim with their homeowner’s insurance. 
• The dog’s owner could pay for your losses out of pocket.  However, don’t accept compensation without consulting your lawyer first. You don’t want to accept less than you need and be left with out-of-pocket costs.  
• You can file a lawsuit against the at-fault party. You generally have four years to file a lawsuit under Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a). Our team will manage everything your lawsuit entails, from its initial filing to closing arguments.

What to Do Immediately After Getting Bitten By a Dog in Naples, FL

Immediately after getting bitten by a dog, there are actions you can take to support your case. If you are severely injured, seek medical attention immediately. Then, we suggest: 

• Collecting the dog owner’s personal information. This also includes their homeowners insurance policy, if applicable. 
• Filing a report with your local animal control agency. By filing a report with Collier County, you create a “paper trail” regarding your dog bite. 
• Getting statements from anyone who witnessed the dog bite. Your lawyer in Naples can use these statements to support your case later on. Witnesses can include bystanders, first responders, and your healthcare team. 
• Taking photos of the animal, your injuries, and any relevant details. The more information you have to support your case, the better. Supporting photos could include a hole in the fence that the dog went through to enter your property.  
• Keeping all injury-related documentation. Your attorney can use your injury-related billing statements and receipts to determine what you can recover. 

Providing this information to your dog bite attorney can be helpful when seeking compensation for your injuries.
