Dog Bite Injuries

Dog bites can cause serious physical injuries and lasting emotional trauma, particularly to children and older adults. In Arizona, dog attacks frequently result in puncture wounds, infections, nerve damage, scarring, and in severe cases, permanent disfigurement. Victims often require emergency treatment, surgery, rabies prevention, and ongoing medical care, leading to significant medical expenses and long-term recovery challenges.

At Eliza Law, our experienced personal injury attorneys represent dog bite victims throughout Arizona and help them understand their rights under state law. Arizona follows a strict liability standard for dog bites, meaning dog owners can be held legally responsible for injuries caused by their dogs regardless of whether the dog had shown prior aggression. This applies when a bite occurs in a public place or when the victim is lawfully on private property, including a neighbor’s home or a rental property.

Whether the attack occurred in a public area, on residential property, or due to a landlord’s failure to address a known dangerous dog, we fight to hold all responsible parties accountable under Arizona law. Dog bite claims may involve dog owners, landlords, or property managers and can include compensation for medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and scarring. Eliza Law is committed to helping Arizona dog bite victims pursue the full compensation they need to heal and move forward.
