Dog Attacks

Clear, compassionate legal help tailored to your situation

There are over 100,000 dog bites in Australia each year, of which more than 2000 require treatment in hospital.

In some cases, the consequences for the victim can be severe, including:

Physical injuries, such as wounds, lacerations, broken bones and nerve damage
Disfigurement and/or scarring
Chronic pain
Psychological conditions such as anxiety, depression or posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

Victims can seek compensation for their pain and suffering, any past and future medical care/rehabilitation, psychological therapy, lost income and/or earning capacity and domestic/personal assistance.

Generally speaking, court proceedings will need to be commenced within 3 years of the attack. However, it is best to seek advise as soon as possible.
