New Jersey Dog Bite Lawyer

If you do not carry any health insurance, we will get the dog owner’s insurance company to pay for your bills. If you are insured, we will check with your insurance company to see if they will assert a lien against your potential recovery in your claim. If so, we get the dog owner’s insurance company to pay it. We will also assist you in getting any co-payments or deductibles paid.

We first must review the facts of your case, as it is difficult to estimate the amount of compensation you should receive without doing so. There are multiple factors that go into determining what you are owed, and it takes an attorney decades of experience to correctly identify your short-term and long-term losses. Mr. Cowhey will fight to recover all possible damages for you, including medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

No. We work on a completely contingent basis. We pay all expenses for the prosecution of your claim. At the end of the case, we subtract the costs from the gross recovery. The fee is one-third of the net recovery (25% in cases where the claimant is a minor). If you don’t recover, either by settlement or jury trial, you owe us nothing.

Dog bite injuries can hurt you financially as well as physically. Out-of-pocket medical costs, insurance co-payments, hospital bills for uninsured victims, etc. Recovering from a dog attack is stressful enough; it should not include the added stress of having to pay for everything yourself and deal with the insurance companies. Let us help by fighting for your legal rights and getting you the compensation you deserve.
