    Common Injuries from Dog Attacks in Savannah

    We help clients seek compensation for:

    Common Consequences of Dog Attacks

    Dog bites can lead to more than just physical wounds—they often leave lasting emotional and financial impacts. Some of the most common effects include:

    If your dog bite injuries were worsened by a failure in medical care during treatment, our team also handles medical malpractice claims to ensure total accountability. Treating these injuries often requires extensive medical care and therapy, which can place a heavy financial burden on victims and their families. You shouldn’t have to bear those costs alone. Use our online form to schedule your free initial consultation with The Cornwell Firm.

    Special Considerations to ‍Children and Dog Bite Injuries

    Children are disproportionately affected by dog attacks and face unique legal protections under Georgia law. Courts recognize that children cannot be expected to understand dog behavior or avoid dangerous situations the same way adults can.

    This means the comparative negligence defense used against adults is often ineffective when the victim is a child. Additionally, children’s cases have extended statutes of limitations, allowing lawsuits to be filed until the child reaches age 20 in some circumstances.

    Medical expenses for treating childhood dog bite injuries can be enormous, especially when reconstructive surgery is needed as the child grows. Our experienced attorneys ensure that settlements account for future medical needs and the psychological trauma that often accompanies these attacks.

    I was fortunate enough to have Ben Davidson at the Cornwell Law Firm on my side during a recent personal injury case, and I’m beyond grateful that I did. From start to finish, he was everything you’d want in a lawyer – sharp, responsive, and truly dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome. What stood out most was Ben’s personal approach. He and his team were incredibly attentive and professional, taking the time to explain each step of the process, always making me feel heard, and fighting hard to ensure I was treated fairly. They brought a sense of calm and confidence to an otherwise stressful situation, and Ben’s experience and expertise showed at every turn. Throughout it all, it was clear that he genuinely cared – my health and well-being were always the top priority, and he made sure I received the treatment I needed and was comfortable with. If you’re looking for a personal injury lawyer in Georgia, I can’t recommend Ben highly enough. I couldn’t have asked for better representation. You won’t find a more capable or compassionate advocate. Thanks again, Ben – you truly made a difference.

    Never having gone through anything like this before, I had no idea about what to do or if anything could be done to hold someone accountable for what I considered their carelessness. My husband & I want to give a huge “shout out” of thanks to Mr. Brian, Brooke, Randall, April & the whole Cornwell Firm for all the phone calls & guidance through the last 2 years. You have no idea what it has meant to me. Y’all are great!
