Our client was an 8-year-old girl who was at the park with her mother when, after receiving a dog owner’s permission to pet her dog, she was bitten on the chin. After some initial healing, the incident left our client with a small scar that her doctor believed could or should later be surgically revised.
Despite the liability carrier initially refusing to consider compensation for the future scar revision procedure and an initial offer of $13,161.59, Attorney Eric Schade was able to settle her claim for $60,000 after filing suit.
