In a West Palm Beach dog bite lawsuit for a child's injury resulting from a vicious dog attack, the owner of a dog that bites a person while they are on or in a public place, or lawfully on or in a private place, including the property of the owner of the dog, is liable for damages suffered by the person bitten by the dog.

He or she will fight to get the compensation your child deserves.
In a West Palm Beach dog bite case a dog bite owner will likely be held liable if the child injured is under the age of six, or if the attack was proximately caused by a negligent act or omission of the owner. For instance, if at the time of the injury the owner failed to display in a prominent place on his or her premises a easily readable sign, including the words "bad dog" to warn of the dog's vicious nature. The rationale for the purpose of a "bad dog" sign, is to put a child or adult person entering the premises on notice that there is a dangerous dog on the premises. Additionally, the sign must be posted in a prominent place and easily readable, so as to give actual notice of the risk of a bite to the victim.
