According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 800,000 Americans seek medical attention for dog bites every year. Of these victims, half are children who are often scarred — physically, emotionally or both — from the animal’s attack.
Under Wisconsin state law, dog owners have strict liability for their animals’ behavior, and their homeowner insurance policies are intended to cover all incidents that occur. If you or your child suffered a dog bite, you may be able to recover financial compensation for:
- Medical treatment
- Future reconstructive/plastic surgeries
- Psychological trauma, pain and suffering
- Permanent scars, nerve damage or disability
Lost wages
If the dog has a prior history of biting people, you may be entitled to recover double damages, or twice the normal amount of your losses.
