Insurance companies are beginning to exclude dog bite coverage from homeowner policies. Even if there is no insurance coverage, there may be other ways to recover compensation for the pain and suffering that results from a dog bite or other dog injury.

• Seek medical care: If you have been bitten by a dog or if a loved one has been attacked, seek medical care immediately. Dogs frequently attack the most vulnerable people — small children and elderly people. Plastic surgery may be necessary to deal with scars. Dog bites can also cause nerve damage.
• Talk to a dog bite lawyer: The laws about dog bite attacks can be confusing. A "bad dog" sign can be used as a defense against liability. Previous problems with the same dog or dog owner can be used to show a disregard for safety. Talk to a dog bite lawyer at the Ligman Martin law firm about your situation.
