Michigan Dog Attacks: What Are Your Rights in Michigan Dog Bite Law?


Michigan law imposes strict liability on the owners of dogs. This legal phrase means that the owner is held responsible for injuries caused by their dog. It also means that dog bite victims may be entitled to monetary compensation.

But dog bite cases are often complicated by many different factors.

Did the owner of the dog have an insurance policy?

Does the dog have a history of prior attacks?

What was the injured person doing when the attack happened?

Dog owners should keep their pets under control, and the victims of dog attacks should know their rights.

If you have questions on this subject our office gives free phone consultations, and you can visit our website, which also contains additional information about dog bites.

So remember, while the law may seem confusing, getting help and getting an advantage is easy.

For this week’s “It’s A Matter of Law,” I’m Mark Bernstein, putting the law on your side.
