Dog Bite Prevention, Safety, and Treatment Information
At Pritzker | Ruohonen & Associates we know that dog bites can be painful and disfiguring. It is estimated that every 40 seconds someone, usually a child, ends up in the emergency room with a dog bite injury, commonly a facial injury. The only way to change those statistics is dog bite prevention. The following links to dog bite prevention information are recommended by our senior partner, lawyer Fred Pritzker, who has been selected for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America.
