Types of Animal Attacks
Animal attacks can occur in many different contexts, including:
- Dog attacks
- Cat attacks
- Exotic animal attacks
- Farm animal attacks
Regardless of the type of animal involved, it’s important to hold the owner or caretaker of the animal accountable for any injuries caused by the animal.
Liability for Animal Attacks
In order to establish liability in an animal attack case, it’s necessary to show that:
- The animal had a history of aggressive behavior
- The owner or caretaker of the animal knew or should have known about the animal’s aggressive tendencies
- The owner or caretaker failed to take reasonable steps to prevent the attack from occurring
Our attorneys have experience investigating these cases and working with animal behavior experts to identify and establish liability.
