Did you know that Chicago’s dog ownership density is the highest in the U.S.? Almost half of Illinois homes own pets, with 32.4 percent of those pets being dogs. Unfortunately, Illinois also ranks high for the annual number of dog attacks and bites. Even worse, the victims are often children. Along with the physical injuries from these attacks, victims often experience severe psychological trauma.
Under the Illinois Animal Control Act, you may be able to pursue a compensation claim against a dog’s owner or other responsible party for the harm suffered in an unprovoked attack. A dedicated Rolling Meadows, IL dog attack attorney can help you pursue your claim and collect as much compensation as you deserve.
