Dog Bite Lawyer, Loren Etengoff
At the Law Offices of Loren Etengoff, we have seen some devastating injuries as the result of dog bites. We understand what a traumatic experience this is for everyone involved.

How will you cope with the scarring and disfigurement?
Facial injuries are especially common among children and can result in nerve damage, puncture wounds and disfigurement. You may be worried about scarring, wondering if there is anything you can do to make the scar disappear or how you and your child will
cope with a disfigurement. For young children, in particular, being bitten by a dog or even witnessing a dog bite attack can introduce psychological problems that require counseling.
Dog bites can be deadly serious
Each year in the United States, millions of people are bitten by dogs, with children ages 5 to 9 being the most common victims. Most dog bites do not require medical attention, but for those that do, the consequences can be deadly serious. Since the 1980s, the number of fatalities due to dog bite injuries has been on the rise, from around 17 to more than 30 per year.
Washington offers strict liability in dog bite cases
In Washington, there is strict liability for dog bites: if you are on another person’s property lawfully and their dog bites you, the owner is responsible. You need not prove the owner was negligent or that they had knowledge of the dog’s violent tendencies.
