Phoenix Dog Bite Lawyer

The injuries from a dog bite can be very serious and can cause permanent damage. Arizona law is tough on pet owners who allow their pets to harm other people. If you or a loved one have been hurt by a dog bite, you need to contact an experienced attorney as soon as you can so that you can understand what options you have in recovering damages.

If you or a loved one have been in a dog bite incident, it is important that you consult with a personal injury attorney. Our legal team works on a contingency fee. This means that you do not need to pay anything when you retain us unless we win your case. At that point, we would take a percentage of compensation as our attorney retainer fee. We offer free case evaluations to help you determine what your next steps need to be.

What Should You Do After a Dog Bite in Arizona?

Arizona has very strict laws regarding dog bites. If you have been bitten by a dog, you must report the bite immediately to Maricopa County Animal Care and Control. At that point you must determine if you believe the dog is a vicious dog or not. If you believe the dog is vicious, then you must take the following steps:

  • Reporting a dog bite: Both the dog owner and the dog bite victim will need to report the dog bite incident to the Maricopa County Animal Care and Control. The people making the report need to be ready to describe the dog in detail. (Breed, color, size and any distinct markings)
  • If you believe the dog is vicious: If you believe the dog is a vicious dog, then you need to file a vicious dog petition with the city or justice court where the dog owner lives.

How Does Insurance Come Into Play in a Dog Bite Case?

Liability for dog bite injuries is often covered under homeowners insurance or renters insurance. This is a positive if you are a victim of a dog bite injury because that means there is a source of income where damages can be recovered for your medical bills. Since this income would be coming from an insurance company, that means you will have to deal with an insurance adjuster. The insurance adjuster’s goal is to have the insurance company pay you as little money as possible from the active insurance policy. You or your loved one should not attempt to speak or negotiate with the insurance company without an attorney present. Having an attorney will allow you to have someone that is extremely knowledgeable on how to get the most compensation from insurance companies for injuries.

Client Testimonials

Real Clients, Real Success Stories

Justin Wyatt represented my husband after a motorcycle accident. He and his staff were personable, professional, and so hard working. He cared about us, and it showed. It was a difficult time for us, but we were able to focus on my husband's recuperation, knowing that Justin was taking care of everything else for us. Thank you so much!

- Sara Hendrickson

I was referred to Wyatt Injury Law by a friend after an accident with uninsured driver who ran a red light. After feeling pretty hopeless and being turned down by 3 other attorneys (one flat out told me cases like mine are a pain the a** and he just wants to retire), I almost gave up on the whole thing. After getting off the phone with Justin, I instantly knew I was in good hands. He and his team were excellent at communicating every step of the process to me and keeping me in the loop. His team made a very well organized effort in getting me the rightful reimbursement for my injuries, pain and suffering. I was very happy with the outcome of my case and would not hesitate to refer Wyatt Injury Law to my friends should any one of them need such personal injury representation in the future.

- Irene Amrine

The group at Wayatt Injury Law truly went above and beyond in handling my personal injury claim. They diligently explained every situation in detail to me and answered all of my questions. I had the pleasure of dealing with Justin, who from the very start, was upfront and realistic regarding the situation and expectations. In the end the Wyatt Injury Law maximized my claim for which I am very grateful. I was very fortunate to fall into the care of the Wyatt Injury Law, PLLC, and I would strongly recommend them to anyone in need of a law firm to handle a personal injury matter.

- L Vail

Justin and his team were amazing. I started my claim with another attorney and for over a year there was no movement on my case. Justin came recommended by a friend and from the first appointment with him it was night and day compared to my dealings with a previous attorney. Expectations were set early on and he was able to close out my injury claim within 3 months! Justin Wyatt and his office did an outstanding job and they were able to secure an awesome settlement.

He explained every aspect of the case in layman's terms, making it easy for someone without a legal background to understand.

I was hesitant to bring in a lawyer into my case, but Justin and his team reassured me that everything would be taken care and has gone above and beyond what I could have asked for. Justin handled everything very professionally, communicated with my party and I very often, and saw that everything went as smoothly as possible for me.

- Cori

The whole team at Wyatt Injury Law was fantastic. They handled everything and made the process easy for me. I had contacted many personal injury attorneys (the big names you see on billboards and buses) and no one would take my case. If it wasn't for my cousin convincing me to pursue this personal injury case I wouldn't have followed through. It took months to find Wyatt Injury Law but well worth it. Don't hesitate to give them a call.

- Shelley Reynolds

From day one of having Justin & his team was such a comfort. They gave me the needed confidence to stay focused and positive, on such a difficult case. More importantly, they treated me as a friend and not a client. You and the team did such a wonderful job in all aspects of the case. Ya'll worked tirelessly to ensure the best possible outcome on my behalf, and I can't thank you enough, and will always be grateful for all of your efforts.

I found Wyatt's group by searching through Korean Times pages. My husband is more comfortable with speaking Korean, but Justin Wyatt helped my husband with his best work, start to end. He and his staff were personable, very knowledgeable and so hard-working. He cared about us, and was easy to talk to. It was not a fun time for us to go through all that, but we were able to get it done in a short time, Justin took care of everything in time and went through the steps with us. Thank you so much me and my husband really appreciate you!!
