Dog bites can lead to severe injuries, emotional distress, and significant medical costs. If you or a loved one has been injured in a dog bite incident, it’s crucial to understand your rights and the legal options available to you. Our firm fights for victims after dog bite injuries, ensuring that they receive the compensation they deserve.
Legal Responsibility of Dog Owners
In Colorado, dog owners are held strictly liable for injuries caused by their pets. This means:
Owners can be responsible even if their dog has never bitten anyone before (the ‘one-bite’ rule).
If the dog had previously shown aggressive behavior, the owner may face more substantial liability.
