You have come to the Right Place after a Dog Bite

A dog bite or animal attack can be frightening, painful, and unexpected. You may be dealing with medical treatment, scarring, time away from work, concerns about the animal, or uncertainty about whether you even have a legal claim.

At the Law Office of Louis S. Haskell, we help injured individuals and families understand their rights and what steps may be available after a dog bite or animal attack.

Our approach is personal. We take the time to listen to what happened, explain the process clearly, and help you make informed decisions about your case.

Our multilingual team is available to assist clients in English, Khmer, Spanish, Thai, Lao, and Chinese, an approach that reflects the firm’s broader commitment to serving Lowell’s diverse communities.

Massachusetts Law provides important protection for dog bite victims

Massachusetts law generally holds the owner or keeper of a dog responsible when the dog causes injury, unless the injured person was trespassing or was teasing, tormenting, or abusing the dog. The law also provides additional protection for children under age seven.

This means a dog does not need to have bitten someone before for a claim to exist, and in many cases the injured person does not have to prove that the owner already knew the dog was dangerous. If you have heard that every dog gets “one free bite,” read our guide on what dog bite victims should know about Massachusetts law to learn why that common belief can prevent people from pursuing valid claims.

Experience matters, and so does how you are treated

When you are comparing local attorneys, legal experience matters, but so does how the office communicates with you and treats you throughout the case.
