Dog Bites & Animal Attacks

California strict liability law

Under California Civil Code Section 3342, dog owners are liable for bites that occur in public places or lawfully on private property — regardless of whether the dog has ever bitten anyone before. You do not need to prove the owner knew the dog was dangerous.

Dog bite injuries can be severe: deep lacerations, nerve damage, permanent scarring, and significant psychological trauma — especially for children. Sergey handles the full scope of your damages, including medical treatment, reconstructive surgery, and the emotional toll of a traumatic attack.
