Gilbert Dog Bite Case Value

Answer:

Dog bite cases come in many different forms. How does that affect the value? This is one area that maybe if the equal rights amendment, if we had that, it would be the same for men and women, but insurance companies value the claims differently for men and women. Why? They think that if you’re a guy and you’ve got a scar like this, you can say, I’m a macho guy, but if you’re a woman and you carry a scar like that, every time you look in the mirror, you’re reminded about that dog attack. Others ask, how did that happen, whatever, and you can’t hide it with makeup, or whatever. You can’t wear a bathing suit without people going, my gosh, what happened to you?

Insurance companies value those claims higher, as one of our attorneys explained the other day on the phone when someone had suffered a dog attack, especially for little girls. If their faces are mauled, those are definitely going to result in higher settlements. Adjustors in that case are going to pay more money.

Anyway, the value of the claim depends normally on the age and gender of the victim and then the extent of the injuries and particularly scarring.
