Dog Bite Injury Compensation
Our law firm is prepared to handle a wide range of legal claims involving injuries caused by animals including the following:
- A traditional dog bite by a dog of any variety on the leg, arm or face

- Elderly person knocked over by a dog
- Child attacked by a dog
- Fatal dog attack
ROBINSON & CLAPHAM has experience representing people who are seriously injured by a dog bite or animal attack. Was the injury victim a child, an elderly person or anyone in a vulnerable position with regard to a dog? Expenses, losses and pain and suffering may be great. The sooner you have an experienced attorney investigating all known facts in a dog bite or animal attack case, the more likely it is that all relevant evidence will be preserved and may be used to strengthen your claim for compensation.
In Rhode Island, it is not only the dog's owner who is potentially liable in a dog bite case. Anyone who "harbors" a dog is also potentially liable. Someone else's dog that is on your property or in your car, for example, may be your responsibility as well as the dog owner's responsibility. A dog attack in a gas station parking lot may be the responsibility of the gas station as well as the responsibility of the dog owner.
