Benefits of Working with Our Team
A dog bite could have lasting and detrimental harm, particularly if the injured party is a young child. While you work on physical and emotional recovery, you can rely on our team to take the following actions on your behalf:- Identify the at-fault dog and its owner
- Provide frequent updates on your case
- Manage all relevant communication
- Obtain, organize, and submit your evidence
- Accurately value your compensation case
Comply with the Statute of Limitations
Understanding and complying with the statute of limitations might be confusing because several factors potentially create a change in the filing deadline. Depending on the outcome of your case:- The personal injury statute of limitations is governed by New York Civil Practice Laws & Rules § 214 (However, if a government agency, municipality or public authority is involved, the statute of limitations is significantly shorter and the time to serve a Notice of Claim is even shorter. One of many possible examples of this could be if the dog was being kept by someone in a public housing setting and the management actually knew, or had they exercised an appropriate level of care, should have known that a dangerous dog was there, posing a threat, without taking action to prevent incidents like the ultimate attack. Our Nassau County dog bite attorney will carefully review the circumstances of your dog bite/dog attack to make certain we protect your rights with respect to statutes of limitations, and the timely service of notices.)
- The wrongful death statute of limitations is governed by Estates, Powers & Trusts § 5-4.1
