 Pennsylvania's Premier Dog Bite Lawyer • Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week! Leash Laws • Animal Bites and Attacks • Soft Tissue Injuries and Disfigurements Lawsuits Dogs and cats can be furry and cute, but their behavior is also their owners' responsibility. Dog bites are dangerous and can lead to life-threatening infections, disfigurements, and catastrophic injuries and death. Pennsylvania law makes it clear that leash laws are to be obeyed, and pet owners must maintain control over their animals. Incredibly, though, some people find it necessary, or even fun, to train their pit bull, German shepherd, or Doberman to bite and attack. I am Jeffrey Harlan Penneys, Esq. Since 1995, I have been representing people who were bitten by a dog, a cat, or another animal that should have been under the control of their owners. As a personal injury litigation lawyer, I have seen the physical and psychological damage experienced by dog bite victims. It simply isn't right that a victim should have to endure the soft tissue injuries, scars, medical bills, disfigurements, and possibly rabies that result when animals attack. Small children often face psychological scarring, as the children often acquire a life-long fear of domestic animals after being bitten. If you have been bitten, or threatened by somebody's dog, or other pet, contact the Philadelphia dog bite lawyer's office of Jeffrey Harlan Penneys, Esq. immediately. We'll discuss the extent of your injuries, and what the law says about the owner's responsibility. If you have been bitten by a dog or other animal it is important to see a doctor immediately. Don't trust the owner's assurances that the animal is clean and free of disease. Dog Bites and Animal Bites Litigation
