Reliable For over 50 years, our Cincinnati personal injury lawyers have been working to help victims collect the compensation they deserve. If you've been injured due to someone else's negligence, we can help you get compensation. The laws of Ohio hold dog owners directly responsible for harm done by the animals they own. The “keeper” or "harborer" of the dog, due to their ability to control the dog, is the one who can be held accountable. Dog bite victims can recover damages in two ways. "Common law" is one way. A victim can bring a lawsuit under state dog bite laws. Under Ohio's dog bite law, dog owners are liable for the harm their dogs caused as long as the victim was not provoking, tormenting, or abusing the dog; attempting to commit a criminal offense on the owner's premises or trespassing on them. In order to recover damages in a dog bite case, the victim must be able to prove that it was the dog that caused the victim's injury. Dog owners are held to a higher standard under common law. This means the victim must need to present evidence that the owner was negligent and that the owner should have known that the dog was aggressive. This kind of case may be more difficult to prove in some circumstances, but it can also allow the victim to also recover punitive damages in addition to damages for injuries. Punitive damages were designed to punish a dog owner for their malicious behavior and deter them from doing it again. Our attorneys understand Ohio's dog bite laws and can help you receive the best available compensation. This is done to protect your rights, help you pursue what you are entitled to, and make sure that you are compensated fully for your injuries.
