Dog Bites
Few things are more frightening than being attacked by a dog.
If you or a loved one have been bitten or attacked by a dog, you may be wondering what rights you have and if you’re entitled to compensation. Raboin & Francis Law Firm is here to answer your questions and provide peace of mind that your interests are protected.
Minnesota has laws to protect victims of dog attacks. Minnesota Statute § 347.22, states:
If a dog, without provocation, attacks or injures any person who is acting peaceably in any place where the person may lawfully be, the owner of the dog is liable in damages to the person so attacked or injured to the full amount of the injury sustained. The term "owner" includes any person harboring or keeping a dog but the owner shall be primarily liable. The term "dog" includes both male and female of the canine species.
Dog attacks can cause serious physical and psychological injuries.
