Dog Bite and Animal Attack Lawyer

Proven New Jersey Dog Bite and Animal Attack Lawyer

Aggressive Representation for Victims

The old adage that a dog is man’s best friend is mostly true. Unfortunately, too many dog owners encourage or condone aggressive behavior in their pets, and too many of those dog owners don’t take appropriate precautions to protect innocent passersby. If you have been the victim of an attack by someone else’s dog, you may have the right to seek compensation for your losses. In New Jersey, with its “strict liability” dog bite law, you can recover for your losses, even if the owner used reasonable measures to restrain the dog, warn others or prevent an attack. Attorney Matthew V. Markosian can help.

At the Princeton Junction Law Office of Matthew V. Markosian, we bring more than 15 years of legal experience to people throughout the state of New Jersey who have suffered a personal injury, including victims of dog bites and other animal attacks. Before setting up his solo practice, Attorney Markosian spent his legal career defending insurance providers in personal injury and other claims. Because of his considerable experience, he understands the potential claims in a personal injury case and can quickly and accurately determine how much you can reasonably expect to recover for your losses. He’s also well-versed in the tactics and strategies that insurance defense attorneys use to try to reduce payouts for a legitimate claim, and can take preemptive measures to minimize delays, as well as wrongful denials or attempts to diminish your recovery.

Matt also understands that trust and open communication are essential to a strong attorney-client relationship, and to helping you get the results you seek. You’ll work exclusively with Matt throughout your claim, from the initial intake and filing through settlement or trial. Matt will keep you regularly informed of all developments in your case, as well as your options and chances of success, so that you can make smart decisions about how you want to proceed.

To arrange a confidential consultation with an experienced personal injury attorney, contact us by email or call attorney Markosian at (609) 455-2090. Your first meeting is without cost or obligation.
