According to a recent report by the CDC, more than 4.5 Americans are the victims of dog bite attacks each year. People who are injured by dog attacks often suffer serious injuries, including lacerations, scars and disfigurement, nerve damage and even death. People attacked by dogs may also suffer severe emotional trauma, including anxiety. The impact of such attacks on children can be particularly devastating, both physically and emotionally.

Oklahoma Dog Bite Laws

Oklahoma law holds dog owners responsible for damages caused by unprovoked dog attacks. Oklahoma statute §4-42.1 states:

The owner or owners of any dog shall be liable for damages to the full amount of any damages sustained when his dog, without provocation, bites or injures any person while such person is in or on a place where he has a lawful right to be.

If you were the victim of an unprovoked dog attack while visiting a friend, performing work requested by a homeowner or while you were otherwise on a person's property lawfully, you have a right to receive compensation for your injuries. Our attorneys have the experience to protect your rights and pursue the compensation you deserve.
