Dog Bite & Dog Attack Attorney

Serving Rochester NY & Surrounding Areas

Injuries caused by dog attacks can be devastating and are usually inexcusable. It is commonly thought that all dogs are entitled to "one free bite" before the owner can be held responsible. This is not true. A dog's prior "vicious propensities" can be shown in many different ways. Prior behavior which places the owner on notice may involve incidents of menacing, growling, baring teeth, lunging, and other aggressive acts. It is the owner's responsibility to contol their dog and to take reasonable precautions to prevent their animal from getting loose and causing injury.
