Dog Attacks

MINNESOTA DOG BITE ACCIDENT LAWYER



Dog Attacks are Strict Liability Cases

In Minnesota dog attacks are deemed to be strict liability cases. This means that the owner of the dog is liable for injuries caused by their dog, unless you provoked the dog.  Dog attacks are becoming more prevalent in our society.


Dog Attacks are Painful and Emotional Injuries

Dog attacks are painful and emotional injuries.  It is not uncommon for the attack to cause in teeth punctures, stitches, scarring or the treatment for rabies.  If you have been attacked by a dog you are entitled to be compensated for your injuries.  Call Scott at once if you or someone close to you has been injured, seriously hurt or died as a result of an unsafe product.  We will act immediately for you, investigate your case and see if we can help.

Owners are Responsible for Damages

Owners usually fail to train their dog(s) properly, neglect to restrain the dog correctly or, in the worst circumstances, actually train the dog to be vicious.  Dog owners are liable for damages as long as the dogs were not provoked.

 

We Must Establish that the Dog Attack was not Provoked

Insurers oftentimes allege that the dog was provoked as a defense.  We need to establish that the dog was not provoked and then you will be entitled to compensation for wage loss, medical bills and pain and suffering for your injuries.  We assist you in gathering information, taking photos and discussing facts to fully analyze your case.  We work to get you the best possible recovery.  If you, a family member or friend have been injured in a dog attack you should seek medical attention immediately, call 911 for emergency assistance, take notes of the incident and take photos of the scene and injuries.

Bus Accidents

No-Fault law in Minnesota is complex.

Car/Bus accident claims in Minnesota are complex.  First, there is a claim against your own insurance company for medical expenses and wage loss.  Minnesota’s No-Fault Law is governed by Minnesota Statutes §65B.41 through §65B.71.  Any person with injuries arising from the maintenance or use of a motor vehicle is entitled to receive up to $20,000.00 in medical and $20,000.00 in wage loss benefits from their own insurance company, regardless of who is ultimately found to be at fault in causing the accident.  For this reason it is called a No-Fault claim.  Pedestrians and bicyclists injured in a motor vehicle accident can seek no-fault benefits from the involved vehicle’s insurance or their own automobile insurance if struck by an uninsured motorist.  Certain provisions in individual policies can increase the amount of coverage provided.

 

Minnesota is a comparative fault state.

In addition to the claim for Minnesota No Fault Benefits, the injured party has the right to bring a claim against the driver of the vehicle causing the accident.  Minnesota is a comparative fault state, meaning that so long as the other driver is more than 50% at fault in causing the collision, he or she can be held liable for the property damage, car repairs, rental car expenses, medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of lifestyle caused by his or her negligence. The practical effect of this is that being partially at fault in causing an accident does not preclude recovery in Minnesota.

There may be uninsured motorist insurance available through your own policy

Finally, depending upon the severity of your injuries and the amount of insurance available through the at-fault driver, you may be able to bring a claim for Underinsured or, in the case of a driver carrying no insurance, Uninsured motorist benefits.  All insurance policies issued in Minnesota carry this UM/UIM coverage. This means that there may be excess insurance available through your own policy if the policy limits of the at-fault driver are not sufficient to compensate you for your injuries. There may be other insurance policies to tap into, as well.  It is critically important that all avenues of insurance recovery be thoroughly explored in order to make sure that you are fully compensated.

“There hasn’t been a single time that someone hasn’t came back to thank me over and over again for referring Scott”

I came in contact with Scott Anderson on the recommendation from a friend. He had Scott as his lawyer and he was extremely happy with the outcome. I found myself in some legal trouble and decided to use Scott because his price was in my ball park. Scott not only got me what I wanted but he kept me calm during the court matter. I was really nervous over what might or could have happened. He always answered my questions or phone calls in a timely matter. Over the past 6 years I have referred Scott to my own customers and friends. There hasn’t been a single time that someone hasn’t came back to thank me over and over again for referring Scott.  I haven’t heard of a better lawyer suitable for the blue collar person then Scott Anderson.
