Arlington Dog Bite Lawyer
Dogs have long been considered our best friends; however, even the most well-trained companion can attack without warning. When a dog owner has failed to take reasonable steps to control their pet or prevent an attack, they may be held legally accountable for both the immediate injuries and the long-term consequences victims face.
The skilled team at Antezana & Antezana LLC is committed to advocating for the rights of those who were hurt in preventable accidents and pursuing justice on their behalf against negligent parties. Our Arlington, VA dog bite lawyer has extensive experience with cases like yours and is prepared to fight for the compensation you deserve. Contact us today to arrange a no-obligation case evaluation and learn more about your legal rights and options.
Dog Bite Lawyer Arlington, VA
Virginia follows what is commonly referred to as the “one-bite rule.” Under this rule, an owner may be held responsible for a victim’s injuries if they knew or should have known that their dog had a tendency to bite or behave aggressively. However, even if there were no prior incidents in which a dog had bitten or attacked someone, an owner may be liable if they neglected to take proper precautions in controlling or restraining their dog, such as allowing it to roam freely or walk without a leash.
If you’ve been bitten or attacked by a dog, it’s imperative that you reach out to one of our seasoned Arlington dog bite lawyers as soon as you are able. We will investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident and preserve all necessary evidence, such as medical records and witness statements. One of our attorneys will also work with medical and financial experts to calculate the full extent of your damages and help you avoid paying out of pocket for someone else’s negligence.

Why Experience Matters In Dog Bite Injury Cases
When a dog owner fails to act responsibly, those harmed have the right to pursue financial recovery for medical expenses, ongoing treatment, and rehabilitation costs resulting from the attack. Unfortunately, insurance adjusters frequently attempt to dispute the severity of injuries or argue that the victim was partially at fault in an effort to delay or deny the claim entirely. One of our experienced Arlington dog bite lawyers will work to make sure you are not pressured into accepting any offer that undervalues the severity of your injuries or ignores the long-term effects of the attack.
We take pride in our ability to provide knowledgeable and compassionate legal representation to every client we serve, which is demonstrated in the following ways:
- Our firm obtains millions of dollars in benefits for clients each year, reflecting our ability to advocate effectively and achieve meaningful outcomes.
- We provide free consultations and work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless compensation is recovered.
- Founded by Alfredo J. Antezana, a recognized and award-winning attorney, our team leverages years of proven experience to achieve successful outcomes for clients injured in dog bite and personal injury cases.
No amount of money can undo the trauma of a dog attack, but receiving fair compensation can offer the resources needed to help you regain stability and move forward with your life. At Antezana & Antezana, LLC, we understand the fear and stress that can follow a dog attack, and our team is committed to working tirelessly to hold negligent dog owners accountable. Schedule your complimentary consultation now and take the first step toward getting the compensation you deserve.
Emotional Trauma And Psychological Impact
Not all injuries from dog bites are visible. Victims may suffer from anxiety, fear of dogs, or post-traumatic stress after an attack. These effects can interfere with daily life and relationships. Recognizing the emotional harm caused by a dog bite is an important part of pursuing a fair case. Our Arlington dog attack attorneys understand how both physical and emotional damages affect your life, and we are here to support you.
Fatal Dog Attack Cases
Although rare, fatal dog attacks do occur and can absolutely devastate families. These tragic cases often involve wrongful death claims, where loved ones seek justice for a life lost too soon. When this happens, families deserve support and legal representation to hold those responsible accountable. Our team is here to help when you need it most. When you’re ready to discuss your options, give us a call.
