If you have been injured in a dog attack, you need to seek the legal assistance of our injury attorneys immediately. Our Walla Walla dog bite lawyers can help you fight for financial recovery while you focus on healing.

Statistics of Canine Attacks

There are numerous reports of normally well-behaved house canines attacking invitees for unknown reasons. Some statistical reports show that 15 to 20 people are killed every year in dog attacks, and many more are injured.

According to Washington State Legislature RCW §16.08.040, the owner of a dog will be liable for any injuries that the dog causes to an individual while:

  • The individual is in a public place
  • The individual is the guest or invitee to private property

The defendant’s attorneys will fight to minimize the damages of the injured person or to blame them for their attack, so it is crucial to have dedicated representation from a personal injury attorney who can fight back on the injured party’s behalf.
