$750,000 – Dog Bite Case

Posted in and tagged by Kenneth A. Wilhelm, Esq.

We recovered $750,000,  the highest settlement amount for this type of case in New York State in 2010, for a 15 year old girl who was bitten by a dog in Suffolk County. Suffolk County, in Long Island, is known to be a very low settlement and verdict county for injured people. At the end of the case, the judge had difficulty or was unable to see the scar on the child when the child was just a few feet away from her. We were still able to recover $750,000.
