Chicago Animal Attack Injury Attorneys

Lawyers Representing Victims of Dog and Animal Bites in Cook County, DuPage County, and all of Illinois

Animal bites can come in many forms, from domesticated pets to guard dogs, wild animals and exotic collections. Although statutes tend to vary from state to state, here in Illinois the law is clear: the owner of an animal is responsible for the behavior of that animal, including any injuries and lost wages incurred from the bite or attack. Unlike several states that have what amounts to a "one-bite" policy indemnifying owners for the first such injury, Illinois offers prompt legal recourse for any victim of any animal.

Animal Bite Experts

Here at Cavanagh Law Group, we are experts in personal injury litigation such as this. After many years of winning personal injury cases throughout Illinois and the nation, we offer a personal and aggressive approach to animal bite cases of every kind. The simple fact is that injuries such as these are often far more damaging than they might seem at first, especially as victims may encounter nerve damage and persistent infections down the line. Add in the debilitating and lingering effects of post-traumatic stress and it is no wonder that juries often award significant damages to the victims of a vicious animal.

From medical malpractice to wrongful death and products liability, we offer nothing less than the most effective and comprehensive approach anywhere in Illinois.
