A dog bite or attack can leave physical and emotional scars that last a lifetime. We have seen firsthand the devastation these incidents cause to victims in the Milton area. Our lawyers will guide you through the dog attack aftermath.
Dog bite cases are complex and involve many legal issues, especially owner liability and insurance coverage. We investigate each case thoroughly, gathering evidence such as witness statements, medical records and animal control reports. Our experience enables us to build strong cases to prove your full damages and suffering. The people of Milton deserve strong representation when faced with the consequences of a dangerous dog encounter.
Understanding the psychological impact of dog attacks is key to our approach to these cases. Many victims develop lifelong fears and anxiety that affect their daily lives. We work with mental health professionals to document these emotional damages and make sure they are considered in your claim.

We will consider plastic surgery, physical therapy, psychological counseling and any necessary accommodations for permanent disabilities. This thorough approach ensures we will get you full compensation for all of your damages.
Ontario’s Dog Owners’ Liability Act provides strong protections for dog bite victims. We know this legislation inside out and will use it to establish owner liability and get you maximum compensation. We have dealt with similar cases before so we know the defense’s strategy and can prepare effective counterarguments. This is invaluable when negotiating with insurance companies or in court.
Children are often the victims of dog attacks and require special consideration of their unique circumstances. We handle these cases with extra sensitivity and make sure compensation accounts for long term physical and emotional development impacts. We work to get resources for ongoing medical care and future treatment needs as the young victims grow.
Insurance companies try to low ball settlements in dog bite cases. We counter this with thorough documentation and evidence presentation. Our reputation for winning cases often gets insurers to offer fair settlements rather than face us in court. But we always prepare each case as if it will go to trial so we have a strong bargaining position.
Documentation is key in dog bite cases. We guide our clients through the process of preserving evidence including photographing injuries, keeping medical records and documenting all related expenses. This thorough approach will strengthen your case and show the full impact of the attack on your life. Our team at Singer Katz LLP will leave no stone unturned in building your case.
