Why You Need a Lawyer After a Dog Bite in South Carolina

South Carolina imposes strict liability for dog bites, meaning owners are often financially responsible even if the dog has never shown aggression before. Unfortunately, insurers often downplay dog bite claims or even shift blame onto the victim — and that’s where we step in.



We represent clients in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, ensuring clear communication at every stage of your case.

Our Legal Strategy for Dog Bite Injury Claims

We take fast, decisive action to:



  • Investigate the cause of the fall
  • Collect photo evidence, video footage, and witness statements
  • Prove the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard
  • Quantify your damages—medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering
  • Fight for a fair settlement or take the case to court

You deserve better than being blamed for someone else’s negligence.
