Dog Owners Must Control Their Dogs or Pay
In the state of Washington, dog owners are required by law to control their animals.
Washington is a strict liability state. In most cases, that means that if a big dog bites your small child, then the dog owner is 100% liable for injuries. If the dog bites, the owner pays.

Pursuing Compensation for Dog Bite Injuries
When attorney Daniel R. Whitmore accepts a dog bite injury case, he and his professional staff will thoroughly investigate the claim. If the matter has been reported to animal control or another law enforcement agency, then he requests a copy of the report. If the attack has not been reported, Mr. Whitmore immediately makes the report so that the authorities are informed of the dangerous dog.
Often, the dog owner’s home owner’s insurance policy will pay for the damages caused by the dangerous dog. These policies are designed to cover premises liability or home owner liability cases caused by a property owner’s failure to maintain a safe home and yard environment.
