Bitten by Neighbor Dog
Our client was invited over to gather tomatoes in their neighbor's yard. As she was picking tomatoes, their dalmatian came over wagging his tail. Our client reached down to pet him, and he bit her for no reason in the lower lip. She was taken to the hospital for a plastic surgery consultation and immediate repair. Although the surgery was successful, a light scar remained near her lower lip. There was approximately $30,000 in medicals, the majority of which were paid by her health insurer.
