If you’ve suffered a serious injury after being bitten by a dog, you may be able to hold the dog’s owner accountable

Dog bites are different from other injury cases. There’s often a layer of emotional shock that sits alongside the physical pain. One minute you’re going about your day. Next, you’re facing an injury caused by someone else’s negligence. At Kinon Law Firm, our Conway dog bite accident attorney knows how to handle these situations and deliver the results our clients deserve.

Dog Bite Laws in South Carolina Favor Victims – But Only If You Act

In South Carolina, dog owners are legally responsible when their animals bite or attack. It doesn’t matter if the dog has never been aggressive before. The law is on your side if you were lawfully on public or private property and suffered a bite. A Conway dog bite accident lawyer from our firm will know exactly how to use those protections to your advantage.

That legal clarity doesn’t mean the process is simple. In counties like Dillon, Florence, and Clarendon, municipal records, incident reports, and witness statements can all impact the strength of your claim. Your attorney will collect the right evidence early and ensure no one downplays what happened or unfairly shifts the blame.

Injuries From Dog Attacks Often Go Deeper Than People Expect

Puncture wounds and torn skin are just the start. Dog bite injuries frequently lead to infections, nerve damage, and even disfigurement that requires surgical repair. That physical damage often comes with anxiety or post-traumatic stress, especially for children or those who develop a fear of public spaces after the attack.

A Conway dog bite accident attorney with Kinon Law Firm will take the time to understand the full impact on your life. Whether the attack left you unable to work, afraid to go outside, or facing long-term care, your lawyer will present those facts clearly and pursue compensation that reflects the whole picture, not just the hospital bill.

Knowledge of Local Law Makes a Real Difference

South Carolina’s dog bite statutes are strict, but building a strong case still takes legal skill. Your Conway dog bite accident lawyer will know how to use that legal structure to pursue full recovery for your injuries. That includes evaluating leash laws, identifying witnesses, reviewing animal control reports, and applying knowledge of county-level enforcement.

In places like Georgetown, Horry, and Williamsburg Counties, where leash ordinances and animal control protocols vary, that local understanding becomes critical. Your attorney won’t treat this like a generic injury case. Instead, we’ll investigate ownership history, track prior complaints, and focus on holding the right people accountable.

Don’t Let an Insurance Company Shrug Off Your Claim

At Kinon Law Firm, we bring more than just legal strategies to the table – we bring focus, local insight, and a commitment to your recovery. When a dog owner fails to control their animal, it shouldn’t fall on you to suffer in silence. We’re here to make sure that doesn’t happen.
