PIT BULLS COMMIT THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF CATASTROPHIC DOG BITES

The O’Hara Law Firm has handled many dog bite cases, and the overwhelming majority of claims are Pit bull bites. Pit bulls and Pit bull mixes have a reputation for being aggressive because of the disproportionate number of catastrophic dog attacks involving Pit bulls. Historically, Pit bulls were selected and bred for their fighting ability. This selective breeding increased their likelihood of attacking other dogs. When a Pit bull attacks another dog, there is a high risk of a person getting bit if someone attempts to protect a dog or separate the fight.

Common Injuries Caused by Dangerous Conditions at Stores

After representing numerous clients injured at different stores, there are common patterns that emerge. Most people are familiar with slip and fall situations where a customer falls while stepping on a slippery surface. However, another common scenario is a customer tripping over an unexpected object on the floor. Often, the object is placed on the floor by an employee of the business, consequently, making the business liable for the injuries caused by the object. This exact scenario has occurred in stores such as Wal-Mart, CVS, HEB, Sam’s Club and other retail stores.
