Suing for Off-Leash Dog Bites in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania’s strict laws mean that if an off-leash dog bites you in a public space or neighborhood, the owner is financially responsible for your damages. You do not need to prove the dog had a prior history of aggression to hold them accountable.

When an owner violates local leash ordinances, their negligence is clear. This strengthens your case to recover maximum compensation for severe puncture wounds, reconstructive surgeries, and permanent scarring that often follow an attack.

Never let an owner blame you for their failure to leash properly.

To build a strong claim after an off-leash attack, take these critical steps immediately:

✔️ Report the incident: Contact local animal control to document the leash law violation and initiate rabies tracking.

✔️Document the scene: Photograph your injuries, the location, and the unconstrained dog.

✔️Seek medical care: Establish a formal medical timeline of your wounds and necessary treatments.

Insurance adjusters will actively try to minimize your settlement. Protect your rights and schedule a free consultation with PA Dog Bite Lawyer Jeff Penneys. With 30 years of experience and millions of dollars won for victims and their families, Jeff will relentlessly pursue the compensation you deserve.

Will I Receive a Higher Settlement for a Facial Injury in a Dog Attack Case?

Potentially, yes. Facial injuries often result in substantially higher settlements compared to injuries on other parts of the body for two critical reasons:

💠 Permanent Scarring and Disfigurement

The high visibility of the face means injuries frequently lead to permanent scarring or disfigurement. This permanent change dramatically increases compensation for non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and the psychological impact of living with a disfigurement.

💠 Extensive Medical Interventions

Treating facial wounds often requires extensive and costly medical interventions, including reconstructive surgery, and specialized scar revision treatments, driving the economic damages higher. The law and juries also recognize the profound, life-altering nature of facial trauma,

If you or a loved one has suffered a severe dog bite injury, particularly to the face, you need experienced legal representation. Jeff Penneys has 30 years of experience fighting for dog bite victims in Pennsylvania, with millions of dollars won in settlements for facial dog bites.
