According to the Insurance Information Institute (Triple-I) and State Farm, liability claims related to dog bites and other dog-related injuries cost homeowners insurers $854 million in 2020. Dog bite liability in California is a serious issue. More and more homeowners are ditching their insurance policies, leaving dog bite victims with little assistance in collecting compensation.
The average cost of medical care from a dog bite can be upwards of 10,000.00 and even more with serious attacks. California leads the nation in dog bite cases.
