Miami Dog Bites Lawyers
The State of Florida recognizes the potential for animal attacks and adopts a theory of “Strict Liability” when it comes to Dog Bites. This means that an owner of a dog is liable for injuries and other damages caused by the attack regardless of whether the owner was negligent or not. Therefore, the seemingly harmless dog in the neighborhood that your children may pet or play with on occasion is not excused when they strike.
