Even if it was a domesticated dog

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

My wife brought my son to the Memphis hospital because he was treated from the dog bites which he got from a pet of a fellow tenant of the apartment we are staying. Even if it was a domesticated dog, I had to rush there and check the severity of the bites myself because I do not want to leave everything to chance.   His arms and face were lacerated on the right side as I checked and he was really traumatized with the incident which bothered me a lot. For the meantime, I asked my brother to live at our house until my son will be healed because he even does not want to go back to the apartment anymore. The doctors and specialist advised that his emotional aspect must go through proper treatment and physical trauma as well. I will do my best to find ways to have money for this immediate necessity. Financial support is what I asked from the pet owner as I know about the Tennessee dog bite law which the dog owner to at least help out in paying for the medical bills. I am pretty sure he is aware of the situation but he is adamant in releasing any amount at all for fear that we might overspend or ask him to pay all the bills without limits. Seeking help of this memphis personal injury lawyer is what my wife and I did, in order to protect our rights as well as the full extent of their culpability as well.
