The other day, I had a potential client involved in a dog bite incident ask me if there was a possibility that someone other than the dog owner could be responsible for the injuries. The answer is, yes, it’s entirely possible if it’s a rented home or apartment and the apartment owner or homeowner has knowledge of this dog’s dangerous propensities. That’s why it’s extremely important to get an attorney involved early on. The attorney can investigate and go in and get the past records of that dog to find out if there’s notice and knowledge. They can find out who else might be responsible and if there’s insurance coverage provided by those other responsible parties.
