But don’t just take our word for it, read about how we’ve been able to help some of our clients:

Toddler Attacked by Dog

Our client, a 2-year-old girl, was playing with a family friend’s dog when she was attacked. This was after she and her father were advised that the dog was friendly. The little girl was immediately taken to the emergency room for treatment. She sustained two large facial lacerations that had to be closed and multiple puncture wounds. Unfortunately, when her wounds became infected, she required treatment with topical antibiotics as well as oral antibiotics.

Because of being attacked by a dog, our client has permanent scarring on her face and will have to undergo scar revision when she is much older and her skin has matured. In the meantime, she will have to live with the scars and the mental trauma that the scars may cause.

Edgar Snyder settled the case out of court.

Teenager Struck by Car While Chased by Unrestrained Dog

Our 13-year-old client was chased down a city sidewalk by a barking 150-pound Labrador Retriever that was not on a leash. In a panic, the boy tried to cross the street to get to his home. In his attempt to escape the dog, he was struck by a car.

A lawsuit was filed and during the litigation of the case, our attorneys uncovered a police report that documented that the dog had gotten loose and had chased another person several months prior to our client's incident. While our client was not bitten by the dog, the dog owner was found to be responsible for the boy's accident.

Edgar Snyder & Associates filed a lawsuit and settled the case a few days before the trial.

Woman Knocked Down by Rottweilers

Our client, a 60-year-old secretary on her way to catch her morning bus to work, was attacked by two Rottweilers. The dogs had escaped from their enclosed yard by climbing over firewood piled against the fence. The two dogs chased the victim down the sidewalk, jumped on her back and knocked her down, causing her to fracture her ankle. The dogs remained over her on the ground, barking and growling. Our client was rescued by bystanders who witnessed the attack and got out of their cars to help.

While the victim was not bitten, the dog owners' were liable for the attack and the woman's injury.

Edgar Snyder & Associates tried the case and the jury awarded a verdict for our client.

Girl Bitten and Dragged by Pit Bull

Our client, a 10-year-old girl, was a guest at a friend's backyard picnic. While playing ball with a group of children, the ball rolled near a dog house where the owner's Pit Bull was tied on a 15-foot chain. The girl, not expecting the chain to be that long, attempted to retrieve the ball. The dog attacked her, bit her on the hand, foot and leg repeatedly, and dragged her several feet towards his dog house. The other children rescued her by striking the dog with sticks and bats.

She required multiple surgeries on her foot and leg.

Edgar Snyder & Associates settled the case out of court after filing a lawsuit.

Small Child Attacked by Landlord's Dog

Our client, a 4-year-old boy, was attacked in his driveway by a Golden Retriever. The dog was owned by the landlord. The landlord, while near the dog, did not have the dog on a leash at the time of the attack. The boy was bitten in the face and lip, and suffered from permanent scarring and irregularity of the lip.

A lawsuit was filed and depositions, statements under oath, of the dog owner and his neighbors revealed that the dog had attacked and bitten another child in the face one year prior to attacking our client.

Edgar Snyder & Associates settled the case out of court.
