Traumatic Injuries From An Animal Attack  That Last a Lifetime

At Polito & Harrington, we handle the most severe dog bite cases. We have represented adults, children and even toddlers who suffered dog bite injuries, such as:

• Scarring: Natural hunters, dogs often bite the face and hands – very visible body parts. We have handled many cases involving significant facial scarring that dramatically affected the victim’s outward appearance and self–image.
• Infection: Contrary to popular belief, dogs do not have cleaner mouths than humans. Not by a long–shot. Dog bites can lead to terrible infections requiring intensive long–term treatment.
• Psychological Damage: When an animal attacks, it turns one of our most primal fears into a reality. Survivors of serious attacks can suffer emotional scars including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
• Other Injuries: Owners of dogs are liable for any injury caused by a dog.
