Get Compensation For Dog Bites & Attacks
You may be entitled to get compensation if you were bitten or attacked by a dog in Michigan. While there are no set guidelines for determining the compensation or settlement amount, there are several factors that are used to evaluate the amount of money for compensation. Dog bite settlement amounts are often based upon similar cases and the results achieved by the lawyer for the dog bite victim in other cases. Insurance companies have their own methods in determining how much compensation to pay the victim.
Some of the factors that determine the compensation for a Michigan dog bite claim include:
- The facts surrounding the dog bite attack
- The location where dog bite attack occurred
- If there was any provocation for the dog attack
- If the dog owner has insurance coverage for the attack
- The amount of the insurance policy limits if there was coverage
- The type and location of the injuries (arms, face, legs)
- The type of medical treatment needed to date
- The type of medical treatment needed in the future
- If the scars and disfigurements are permanent in nature
- The age and sex of the victim
- The amount of medical bills related to the dog bite attack
- The amount of lost wages resulting from the attack
Settlements in dog bite cases are often substantial. Compensation is paid for pain and suffering, scars and disfigurement, psychological damages, medical expenses and lost wages. Our lawyers have obtained millions of dollars in settlements for our dog bite clients.
