Dogs are wonderful companions. However, sometimes, unexpected situations like dog bites can occur. In California, there are laws in place to ensure the safety of victims and protect their rights.
The California Civil Code Section 3342, often referred to as the Dog Bite Law in California, sets up a strict liability rule that if a dog bites someone, the owner is held responsible for the injuries caused. This is regardless of the dog's past behavior or the owner's knowledge of it.
Understanding the law is important for both victims and dog owners as it ensures that the legal rights of everyone involved are respected. If you are injured because of a dog bite accident, get legal advice from a personal injury lawyer on filing a financial claim.
