Dog Bite & Animal Attack Cases

New Jersey Dog Bite & Animal Attack Cases

Most Dog Bite and Dog Attack Cases are Unexpected

Many of us are avid pet lovers and treat our dogs and other pets as loving members of our family. Unfortunately, however, animals when excited may react in an unexpected manner. While the family dog may be a kind and loving animal, it may react inappropriately in certain circumstances by biting individuals. Certain breeds of dogs may cause very serious injuries.

New Jersey Dog Bite Law –  New Jersey is a strict liability state, meaning that dog owners are automatically responsible for injuries caused by their pets.
