Frequently Asked Questions
Does California have strict liability for dog bites?
Yes, California Civil Code Section 3342 makes dog owners strictly liable for bites in public places or while lawfully on private property, regardless of prior aggression history.
What if the dog owner says I provoked the dog?
Provocation can be a defense, but it must be significant. Simply walking by or making eye contact is not provocation. We investigate the circumstances thoroughly.
Can I sue if the dog didn't bite but knocked me down?
Yes, you can pursue a negligence claim for non-bite injuries caused by dogs, though these cases require proving the owner knew or should have known the dog was dangerous.
