Dog Bite Lawyer in Florida

Yes. Florida has a strict liability dog bite law, which means the owner is liable for any injuries their dog causes—even if the dog has never bitten anyone before. You don’t have to prove negligence. If you were lawfully on the property and did not provoke the dog, you likely have a strong claim.

At Comras & Comras, we’ve handled numerous dog bite cases across South Florida. We’ll evaluate your claim, gather critical evidence, and take immediate steps to pursue the compensation you’re owed. You’ll work directly with an experienced trial attorney who knows how to build a strong, persuasive case.

Even if the attack occurred at the dog owner's home, you may still be entitled to compensation. Florida law protects people who are lawfully on private property—including guests, delivery personnel, and service workers. Homeowner’s insurance often covers these incidents, meaning you can pursue a claim without suing the individual directly.

We’re here to help you understand your options. Our firm handles communication with insurance companies from day one, ensuring you’re treated fairly and not pressured into accepting less than your case is worth.

Dog bites can range from puncture wounds and torn skin to serious infections, broken bones, and permanent scarring. Children and the elderly are especially vulnerable to head and facial injuries. In severe cases, dog attacks can cause nerve damage or even require reconstructive surgery.

Our firm works closely with medical experts to fully understand the extent of your injuries. We document everything thoroughly to ensure that your compensation reflects not just your current expenses, but also the long-term consequences of the attack.

Florida law gives you two years from the date of the dog bite to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, gathering evidence and speaking to witnesses is much easier the sooner you start. If you wait too long, your case may be harder to prove—or barred entirely.
