Handling Dog Bite Cases Individually, Comprehensively

  •  Physical injury stemming from a dog bite or animal attack can be serious, particularly when the victim is a child. Our firm gathers complete medical information and works to ensure that all medical costs and ongoing treatments are borne by the responsible party.
  •  Obtaining compensation for our clients also addresses costs related to psychological care following a traumatic injury or bite by a Rottweiler, pit bull, chow, Doberman or other vicious dog breed.
  •  Some bites or claws result in facial scarring or disfigurement. We have successfully obtained settlements that cover the cost of cosmetic or plastic surgery.

Presumption of Liability

Georgia is not a strict liability state. However, if a pet owner is in violation of the leash ordinance, there may be a case for negligence. Similarly, if the dog has bitten individuals on prior occasions, there is a presumption of liability and punitive damages may be imposed.

Client Reviews

After being involved and a five car accident I contacted Casey Stevens law firm. I was given his number by a fellow coworker at my job who had used him in the past and was very satisfied with his services. The car accident included myself my husband and my son, the accident was determined to be the fault of two drivers involved in the accident. Casey personally came to my home the next day and said down with me and my family at the kitchen table and went over all the events of the accident. There were months and months of physical therapy, doctor visits injections and while my son had to have his mouth wired after having his jaw broke in three places. Casey and his staff worked continuously on our case and after it was all said and done, they where able to get us over $300,000 in damages. I really want to Thank Casey Stevens and his staff for always being available for phone calls and answering any questions I might have. I will continue to recommend potential clients to Casey Stevens law firm. Nina F
