Dog Bites
Helping Attack Victims throughout Texas
Texas law offers strong remedies for anyone who is bitten or injured by a canine companion in an accident involving a dog. You could be entitled to money damages, including past and future medical expenses, past, present, and future mental pain and suffering, as well as past and potential disability or loss of function. Additional money damages may be available for wrongful death if the accident resulted in a death.
Anyone can be bitten by a dog. Children are most likely to be bitten because of their small stature and unpredictable or playful behavior.
Dog breed and size affect the severity of injuries that dogs inflict. Larger dogs are more aggressive and more likely to cause injury. Rottweiler, large mixed-breeds, Pit Bull type, German Shepherds and shepherd-mixes are all top choices for their biting behavior. Aggression is not determined by the dog’s size. Labrador Retrievers and hounds, for example, are large dogs that are not known to exhibit aggression or biting behavior.
Proving Negligence Once Becoming A Victim of A Dog Bite
Sometimes, injuries caused by an attack by a dog can be sustained by people other than the dog’s owner. People who “keep” or “harbor” dogs for another person are one example. If someone is injured by a dog attack, that person could be held responsible for negligence. If it is proven that the dog was potentially dangerous or is known to have dangerous aggressive behavior, the person who owned, kept, or harbored the dog could be held responsible for damages.
Discover your Recoverable Compensation
Texas dog bite lawyers can help you assess your case and determine if you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries and pain.

Slip & Fall
Fight agaisnt Negligent Property Owners
It’s perfectly natural for you to assume that you are safe when you enter an office building, shopping mall or movie theater, or school. This sense of safety is possible thanks to the theory of premises liability. Premises liability is the obligation of property owners to maintain their property in good repair and warn of potential dangers. Property owners who fail to comply with these obligations could be financially responsible for any damages.
If a property owner leaves a hazard unattended, and you get hurt, you were wronged.
Know your rights, you are not responsible for the expenses of recovery costs, such as medical bills and lost work time, just because someone else neglected to maintain their space.
Property Owners have a duty to you to maintain hazard free spaces
Your relationship with the property and owner will determine how much you are liable. Those property owners who are inviting guests to the property to do business have the greatest responsibility. Regular inspections must be performed by the owners. Owners can be held responsible for any dangers they knew about or should have known about. Hosts have a lesser obligation to guests. This scenario is called a license for noncommercial purposes.
Trespassers are subject to the lowest duty owed to them, as they have not been invited onto the property. The property owner has a higher duty to prevent children from trespassing. No matter how many children have been invited to the property, the owner has an obligation to keep them away if not invited, provide safe conditions and warn them of dangers if they are.
