Dog in road $238,000.00

When our client, riding his motorcycle, crashed into the back of a truck that was stopped in the middle of the road, he was badly injured., The truck had stopped to avoid hitting a dog in the road. The law holds the owner of a dog liable for any injury caused by the dog.

The motorcyclist's losses exceeded the $20,000 insurance carried by the owner of the truck. The dog was a greater contributor to the accident than the pickup truck., A great deal of investigation went into this case because the dog's owner initially denied that it was his dog. The case went to trial, seeking payment from the owner's homeowner's insurance. Just prior to jury selection, attorneys for the dog's owner and the pickup truck agreed to a $238,000.00 settlement.
