Bitten by a Dog? Florida Law Protects You, and Florida Injury Solutions Group Will Fight for You.

A dog attack is a terrifying event that can leave victims, especially children, with deep physical and emotional scars. In Florida, dog owners are typically held “strictly liable” for injuries their pets cause, regardless of the dog’s history. If you or a loved one has been injured by a dog bite in Miami, you have the right to seek compensation. Florida Injury Solutions Group provides compassionate and aggressive representation for victims of animal attacks.

You don’t have to bear the costs of an owner’s negligence. Contact our Miami dog bite attorneys for a Free, Confidential Consultation.

Understanding Florida's Dog Bite Law

Florida Statute 767.04 is very clear: the owner of any dog that bites any person while such person is on or in a public place, or lawfully on or in a private place, is liable for damages. This means you generally do not have to prove that the owner knew the dog was dangerous.

Key aspects of your claim:

      • Strict Liability: The owner is responsible, even if the dog had never bitten anyone before.
      • Homeowner’s Insurance: Compensation is typically paid from the dog owner’s homeowner’s or renter’s insurance policy.
      • Owner Negligence: If the owner’s carelessness (like violating leash laws) contributed to the attack, this can strengthen your case.

We Advocate for Victims of All Ages

Dog bites can be particularly traumatic for children, who are often the most frequent victims. Florida Injury Solutions Group understands the sensitive nature of these cases and are dedicated to helping families recover.

We fight for compensation to cover:

      • Medical Expenses: Including emergency room visits, plastic surgery for scarring, and infection treatment.
      • Psychological Counseling: For PTSD, anxiety, and fear of dogs (cynophobia) resulting from the attack.
      • Lost Wages: For time you missed from work while recovering or caring for an injured child.
      • Pain, Suffering, and Disfigurement: Compensation for the physical pain and emotional trauma of the attack and any permanent scarring.
