According to an article in the Dallas Morning News today, fewer than one child in 1000 is bitten by a dog each year. However, the researchers noted that about half of all dog bites are not reported to police or doctors.
Children under age one had the highest risk of being bitten, and nearly 75% of the injured children were younger than ten. Half of all dog bites were to the face, head or neck.
I am a Dallas, Texas lawyer who has had the privilege of helping thousands of clients since 1971 in the areas of Personal Injury law and Social Security Disability.
The title of this blog reflects my attitude toward those government agencies and insurance companies that routinely mistreat injured or disabled people. As a Dallas, Texas lawyer, I've spent more than 45 years trying to help those poor folk, and I have been frustrated daily by the actions of the people on the other side of their claims. (Sorry if I offended you...)
