DOG OWNER LIABLE FOR DOG BITE/ATTACK MEDICAL BILLS

Also, it doesn’t matter if the other person’s dog bites you in their house, yard, on the street or at the park. MN law holds the dog owner responsible if their dog bites or injures someone anywhere. It also doesn’t matter if the dog has not bitten or hurt anyone before. In other words, the dog owner is responsible even if the dog bites for the first time.
MEDICAL BILLS FROM DOG BITE PAID BY HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE
In most cases, medical bills and compensation for the dog bite are paid by the owner’s homeowner’s insurance. If the dog owner is in an apartment or rents their house, they may have renters insurance. Renters insurance will also cover a dog bite and other situations where a dog injures a person. Our Minnesota dog bite lawyers have more than 25 years’ experience dealing with the dog owners insurance in these situations.
In many cases, medical bills from a dog bite are significant. Our dog bite lawyers frequently handle Minnesota cases where our client must undergo a series of rabies shots that sometimes cost over $10,000. More often, there are medical bills for the hospital and surgery after a serious dog bite. These medical bills are even more expensive than rabies shots. Our lawyers for dog bite cases get the medical bills paid for our client. However, in addition to the medical bills immediately after the incident, medical treatment may be required in the future. For example, plastic surgery to improve scars, etc.
