Compassionate Representation for Dog Bite Victims in Corpus

Compassionate Dog Bite Representation Focused on Recovery and Resolution

A dog bite is more than just a physical injury—it’s a traumatic event that can leave lasting emotional scars and mounting medical bills. At Jones & Koch Law Firm, we understand that you aren’t looking for a high-volume “settlement mill.” You’re looking for local attorneys who will listen to your story and handle your case with the personal attention it deserves.

Understanding Texas Dog Bite Laws

Texas follows the “One-Bite Rule,” which generally means an owner is liable if they knew their dog had a history of aggression or if they were negligent in controlling the animal.

Navigating these legal nuances requires a steady hand. We help you gather the necessary evidence to prove liability, including:

  • Animal control records and prior incident reports.
  • Witness statements from neighbors or bystanders.
  • Medical documentation of your injuries and recovery needs.
  • Discovery of applicable insurance policies
  • Many people don’t know, but the dog-owners homeowners or renters insurance will often apply and allow you to recover the damages you deserve.

Recovering What You Deserve

Medical costs for dog bites can escalate quickly, especially if reconstructive surgery or long-term physical therapy is required. We advocate for a settlement that covers:

  1. Medical Expenses: Past, present, and future treatments.
  2. Lost Wages: Time taken off work to heal.
  3. Pain and Suffering: Compensation for the physical and emotional trauma.
    Scarring and
  4. Disfigurement: Addressing the long-term impact of the injury.
