Dog Bites

A dog attack can leave you with devastating physical injuries, permanent scars, emotional trauma, and overwhelming medical bills. Property owners and dog owners have a legal duty to control their animals — and when they fail, you deserve justice.

At Mobilio Wood we aggressively fight for dog bite victims. We hold negligent owners fully accountable and pursue the maximum compensation you need to heal and move forward.

We handle dog bite and animal attack cases involving:

  • Severe lacerations and puncture wounds
  • Facial injuries and permanent disfigurement
  • Nerve damage and infections
  • Broken bones caused by falls during an attack
  • Psychological trauma, PTSD, and emotional distress
  • Fatal dog attacks resulting in wrongful death claims

Many victims are children, delivery drivers, postal workers, and innocent bystanders.

If a dangerous dog caused harm — whether it happened at a park, in a neighbor’s yard, on public property, or inside a private residence — you may be entitled to full compensation for:

  • Medical bills (including plastic surgery and ongoing care)
  • Lost wages and future loss of earnings
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent scarring and disfigurement
  • Emotional distress and mental health treatment
  • Wrongful death damages (in fatal attack cases)

Dog owners must be held accountable. Don’t let insurance companies minimize your injuries or deny your rightful claim.

At Mobilio Wood we don’t back down. We fight hard, we fight smart, and we fight to win.

Dog Bite FAQs

Yes. You have the right to sue a negligent dog owner for injuries caused by their animal. At Mobilio Wood, we aggressively pursue every dollar you’re owed.
Dog bite settlements vary based on the severity of your injuries. Minor bites may settle for thousands, while cases involving severe scarring, nerve damage, or permanent disfigurement can result in settlements of $100,000 or more. Every case is different, but Mobilio Wood fights to maximize your compensation.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, permanent disabilities, future medical expenses, and in some cases, punitive damages if the company’s actions were reckless.

In Pennsylvania, you have two (2) years from the date of attack to file a dog bite lawsuit. Miss the deadline, and you lose your right to recover. Don’t wait. Call Mobilio Wood immediately to protect your case and preserve critical evidence.
  • Seek immediate medical attention — even small bites can cause infection.
  • Report the bite to local animal control or law enforcement.
  • Take photos of your injuries and the location of the attack.
  • Get contact information for the dog’s owner and any witnesses.
  • Avoid speaking to insurance companies before consulting with a dog bite lawyer.

In many cases, the dog owner’s homeowners’ insurance or renters’ insurance policy covers dog bite injuries. We aggressively negotiate with insurance companies — and take them to court if necessary — to get you the compensation you deserve.

"Don’t let the poor driving of one person ruin your life and don’t let the insurance companies deny you the compensation you are entitled to. You can pursue payment for past and future medical bills, lost wages, lost earning capacity and other damages under Pennsylvania Law."
