If your child is attacked by a dog and sustains and bite injury you may have a claim for compensation. Do not trust your child's case to just any lawyer, you need an experienced and knowledgeable West Palm Beach Child Injury Lawyer. He or she will work hard to wim your claim and defeat any possible defenses the defendant may present. In a cause of action for a child's injury resulting from a vicious dog attack, a defendant may assert defenses to try to defend against the plaintiff's claim for recovery. For instance, if the owner of any dog that bites any person while that person is in a public place or lawfully in a private place, the owner is liable for damages suffered by the person, unless any negligence on the part of the person bitten is the proximate cause of his or her own conduct, the liability of the owner of the dog will be reduced by the percentage that the plaintiff's negligence contributed to the biting incident. However, a West Palm Beach Child Injury Lawyer may present contradictory evidence and argument asserting that a child is not experienced enough and knowledgeable to determine whether a dangerous dog is present. Therefore, the plaintiff may argue that the defendant/owner should have anticipated the child's injury by taking the proper precautions and safeguards to prevent his or her dog from biting the child.
