If you've been bitten by a dog, everybody understands that the owner of that dog is responsible for the dog bite and harm caused by the dog. What some people don't realize, though, is if that dog owner is also a tenant, his landlord, or their landlord, may also be responsible for the harm caused by that dog. If the tenant or dog owner doesn't have insurance, you may be able to bring a claim against the landlord's insurance company for your harm. In these cases, it's really important to get an attorney involved right away to help investigate these claims because we need to show that the landlord knew that the dog was there and had some knowledge that that dog was not safe.
