I’d sue. Dogs who bite humans, let alone babies, deserve absolutely no quarter.
Oh we know. But we also know that lawyers don’t take low dollar contingency cases that aren’t a slam dunk payout with a single letter.
No, there are at least 5 lawyers upthread saying how she shouldn’t hire a lawyer because it’s too expensive (for OP) to get litigious. Not that a lawyer won’t take the case at all.
At least get a consult. People who harbor dangerous animals need to be held liable. This is why insurance policies exist!
You know that OP did get a consult. Lawyer did not take any action on their behalf.
Different PP. I believe that OP consulted a real estate lawyer, not a personal injury lawyer. I had no problem getting a lawyer, twice for dogbites similar to OP's child's. They were personal injury lawyers, and both cases the homeowners insurance paid-never saw the inside of a courtroom.
Litigious husband got a consult with a lawyer from his company and afterward OP and his and decided not to pursue based on the advice received.
Oh, you mean the father of the child dog bite victim? That's what he is actually. And unless the lawyer from his company happened to be a personal injury lawyer, he needs to seek out a personal injury lawyer. I have experience with this and that's the kind of lawyer that will take this case.
