Protecting Your Rights After A Dog Bite Injury
Dog bites can result in serious physical injuries, emotional trauma, and financial burdens. At Max Law, we are committed to helping victims of dog bites get the justice and compensation they deserve. If you or a loved one has been injured by a dog, our experienced legal team is here to advocate for your rights and ensure you receive the maximum compensation for your injuries.
As a dog bite victim in Florida, it’s important to know that the law is on your side. Florida operates under a “strict liability” rule when it comes to dog bites, meaning that dog owners are generally held responsible for any injuries their dog causes, regardless of the dog’s past behavior or the owner’s knowledge of any aggressive tendencies.
