Dog Bites

Legal Support in Lakeland for
Injuries Involving Dog Bites

In Polk County, pets are often an important part of the family. We love them and take care of our precious fur babies like we would a human child. Unfortunately, at times a pet belonging to someone else can cause injuries to you or your loved ones. You may require medical attention to ensure the injury heals properly. When that happens, Patton Law here to help you recover. 
According to a survey about dog bites by the Centers for Disease control, “nearly 2% of the U.S. population—about 4.7 million people—are bitten by a dog each year. The vast majority of these bites (about 83%) don’t result in injury, and no medical treatment is sought. About 800,000 individuals, however, half of them children, seek medical treatment for dog bites. Among children 14 years and younger, injury rates are significantly higher for boys (57%) than for girls (43%), and the rate of dog bite injuries is highest among children ages five to nine years. Between 15 and 20 of these annual bites nationwide are fatal.”
