Michigan Dog Bite Lawyers

Our Michigan dog bite lawyers represent victims of dog bites and animal attacks in cases throughout Michigan.  We represent a wide range of clients in these cases, including children, postal workers, and utility workers. 


Act Quickly when Attacked by a Dog

If possible, try to gather as much evidence as you can once you or the dog bite victim has received appropriate medical attention.

Useful evidence can include:

  • The names of the dog and dog owner

  • The dog owner's address

  • Addresses and names of people who witnessed the attack

  • Photos and descriptions of the place where the attack occurred

  • Medical evaluation of the wound by the treating physician

DNA testing and a cast of the dog's mouth may be necessary to prove your case. Do not permit the dog to be destroyed until after testing and casting have been performed. This evidence will help with your dog bite lawsuit.

Michigan Dog Bite Laws

There are specific Michigan laws that apply to dog bite cases.  Owners and keepers of dogs in Michigan are strictly liable for dog bites and attacks.  This means that the dog bite victim does not have to prove that the owner was negligent, only that he or she was bitten or attacked by the dog.  There are also strict Michigan leash laws that hold the dog owner liable if their unleashed dog bites or attacks an innocent person. 

Owners of dogs should know important information about their dog and things that they can do to prevent dog bites and attacks.

Dog Bite Injuries

Dog bites and dog attacks, especially when the victim is a child, can cause serious injuries, including:

In addition to the physical injuries, the consequences of an animal attack can include psychological damage, nightmares, medical expenses for plastic and reconstructive surgery, and lost income. People in certain careers where appearance is critical, such as modeling and acting, can have a promising career cut short due to a dog  attack.

Getting Compensated For A Dog Bite Injury

We have obtained significant settlements for our clients in Michigan dog bite injury cases.  Many times, the dog bite victim is a family member, friend, or neighbor of the owner of the dog and is reluctant to file a claim.  In most circumstances, the settlement is paid by the homeowner’s insurance company for the owner or keeper of the dog.  If the dog is owned or kept by a business, the business insurance company pays the settlements.

Testimonials

For your personal injury cases, I would recommend George Burke at Buckfire & Buckfire. He was professional, knew the law and best of all, negotiated a settlement for me that was fair compensation for the injuries I received.
Kevin - Walled Lake

I cannot thank Daniel Buckfire enough for helping in my No-Fault Insurance claim against State Farm Insurance Company. I am a quadriplegic as a result of a car accident and my insurance company denied me a portion of my insurance benefits. I contacted Daniel and he was able to get those benefits paid quickly for me.
