Injuries you sustained from a dog attack at a friend’s home may require legal action to protect your interests, especially if the attack causes you to miss work or incur costly medical expenses. If your friend has homeowners’ insurance, the compensation you receive would most likely come from a claim against the dog owner’s homeowners’ policy.
This is important to note, because many people are bitten by dogs that are owned by family members, friends, or neighbors. When this happens, it is understandably difficult to discuss legal action. When an injury claim is filed against a dog owner’s homeowners’ insurance policy, the insurer will be the one required to pay.
