VirginiaDog Bites Lawyers in Chesterfield County, Virginia

Although a dog may be man's best friend, these animals can often act in a way that is out of the human owner's control.


Under Chesterfield County, Virginia common law, an owner or caretaker for a dog may be help strictly liable for the damages caused by the dog after an attack or biting incident.
