Animal Attack Lawyer Serving Clark County
A dog bite can lead to traumatic injuries. Many dog bites result in scarring and skin damage, often requiring reconstructive or plastic surgery. When children are the victims of dog bites, the results can be even more catastrophic.
If you have been attacked by a dog, you may be eligible for significant compensation for your injuries, medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other damages. At the law office of Mace J. Yampolsky & Associates, I represent individuals in Las Vegas and throughout southern Nevada in dog bite injury cases. Contact me to find out about your legal options.
Dangerous Dogs
Certain dog breeds are considered more dangerous than others: pit bulls, German shepherds, chaus chaus, boxers, Doberman Pinschers, and Rottweilers. If you have been bitten by any of these dogs — or by any other breed — it is important to talk to a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. I can begin investigating your case and determine if the dog has bitten anybody in the past, which may come into play in building your case. I may work with dog trainers, veterinarians, or other animal experts whose testimony may help in building a case.
Dog Bite Law in Nevada
In Nevada, dog owners are expected to restrain their dogs and keep them in an enclosed area to minimize the risk of a dog attack. When an individual is bitten by a dog, the dog owner's homeowners insurance will usually apply. When a dog bite occurs on rental property, it may be possible to seek compensation through the homeowners insurance policy as well as through the dog owner's insurance. I will help you explore your full scope of legal options to maximize your settlement.
