Walnut Creek Dog Bite Lawyer
Helping Clients Who Suffered Serious Dog Bite Injuries in the Bay Area
Dogs are considered to be “man’s best friend,” though they are still unpredictable animals. Some dog owners might know their pets have the tendency to be hostile, while other dogs might bite someone out of nowhere with no past signs of aggression. In either situation, California dog owners should be held liable for the injuries and losses caused by their dogs. An experienced dog bite attorney can help your situation.
If you suffered injuries from a dog bite, you should seek medical attention. Then, you should consult with a dog bite lawyer handling claims in Contra Costa, Alameda, Solano, and San Joaquin Counties. Contact the legal team at Ratner Molineaux, LLP, to discuss the next steps in your case.
Dog Bite Injuries
Some dog bites are minor and only scratch the surface of the skin. These can generally be treated at home with first aid. However, if a dog bite breaks through the skin and/or causes other injuries, it is critical to have the wound treated by a medical professional. Failure to do so can result in serious infections and other complications. You should also seek medical care if you do not know the dog’s owner or vaccine status.
Some common dog bite injuries that can be costly include:
- Lacerations
- Puncture wounds
- Soft tissue tears
- Fractures
- Facial injuries and disfigurement
- Infections
In California, dog owners are generally held strictly liable for the losses of dog bite victims, so you should not wait to learn about your legal options.

“Highly Recommend”
Highly recommend. Laid off without notice by a shady Pre IPO lender in San Francisco. No one was given severance and they hired a labor attorney ahead of the layoffs to try and get around paying severance and warn notice. Without this firm taking my case, I would have never received a dime. Do not let a lay off without any severance deter you, contact this firm. Odd thing was 1 letter from this firm and severance was immediately offered. It's a game these high-tech companies are playing and gambling on. Their bet is 98% will not do anything severance and for the small percent that do, the amount to pay versus provided all in the layoff, is pennies on the dollar. Get your documentation, all emails, take photos of slack messages, record any zoom calls where there is a statement " no one is getting laid off" and so forth. Records any zoom calls where you are laid off. Take notes. Protect yourself and family. Working all the holidays and 12-hour days to be let go with nothing, is ridiculous. Use this firm and provide all your documentation. Good Luck!- J.C. -
“Extremely Satisfied”
I was referred to Ratner Molineaux after my daughter and I suffered injury and property damage resulting from a defective product in our home. During my very first conversation with David Ratner, I found him to be straightforward, professional, and extremely responsive to my concerns. Thereafter, David took the time to walk us through each and every stage of the litigation process and was an excellent advocate for my daughter and I. He remained fiercely protective of our interests and represented us well during mediation, preparation for trial, and settlement talks. David's style is very direct and to the point, which might be off putting for some, but worked well for me since I tend to be laser focused when dealing with business matters. Near the conclusion of my case, I had the opportunity to meet his partner Shelley, who had also diligently and effectively assisted with our litigation. In the end, our result was more than adequate, and both my daughter and I walked away extremely satisfied with both the representation we'd received, and the outcome of our claim. I definitely recommend this firm.- D.M. -
