Fighting for Dog Bite Victims Across South Jersey

Dog bites are sudden, traumatic, and often life-changing. Whether it happens in a Cherry Hill neighborhood, at a public park, or on private property, a dog attack can cause serious injuries, permanent scarring, and emotional trauma.

At Kwartler Manus, our dog bite attorneys in Cherry Hill act quickly to secure evidence, identify the dog owner, and pursue full compensation under New Jersey’s strict liability laws. We don’t just file claims; we build powerful cases that force negligent owners and insurers to take responsibility.

New Jersey’s Dog Bite Law Explained

Unlike many states, New Jersey enforces a strict liability rule for dog bites. This means that dog owners are automatically responsible if their dog bites someone — even if the animal has never shown aggression before.

In simple terms:

You don’t have to prove the owner knew the dog was dangerous.
You don’t have to show negligence — only that the bite occurred and caused injury.
The owner’s insurance (often homeowner’s or renter’s) can be held liable for damages.

Our firm leverages these laws to build cases that resolve quickly and decisively in favor of the victim.

Common Causes of Dog Bite Attacks

Dog bites often occur because owners fail to act responsibly. Whether through negligence or poor training, these incidents are preventable.

We handle cases involving:

Loose or unrestrained dogs in neighborhoods or parks
Attacks in apartment complexes or rental properties
Bites on postal workers, delivery drivers, or service personnel
Dangerous breeds not properly secured
Attacks involving children or elderly victims

Every case begins with a full investigation into the owner’s conduct, history of complaints, and compliance with local animal control regulations.

Injuries Caused by Dog Bites

Even minor bites can lead to infection or lasting scars. More severe attacks may cause catastrophic or disfiguring injuries that affect victims for life.

We represent clients suffering from:

Deep lacerations or puncture wounds
Nerve and muscle damage
Infections such as MRSA or tetanus
Permanent scarring or disfigurement
Emotional trauma and PTSD
Facial injuries or reconstructive surgery needs

Dog bites can also leave lasting emotional scars, particularly for children. Our attorneys pursue both physical and psychological damages in every case.

Compensation Available for Dog Bite Victims

Victims of dog attacks are entitled to full financial recovery for both economic and non-economic losses. Our team works with medical experts and financial specialists to calculate the total impact of your injuries.

Compensation may include:

Emergency medical treatment and follow-up care
Plastic surgery or scar revision
Lost wages and diminished earning potential
Pain and suffering
Emotional distress and counseling costs
Permanent disability or scarring damages

We don’t let insurers undervalue cases or dismiss emotional harm — both matter, and both deserve compensation.

What to Do After a Dog Bite in Cherry Hill

Taking the right steps after a bite can make all the difference in your recovery and your claim.

If you or a loved one is bitten:

Get medical treatment immediately, even for minor wounds.
Identify the dog and its owner if possible.
Report the incident to Cherry Hill Animal Control or local police.
Take photos of the injuries, the dog, and the scene.
Contact a dog bite attorney before speaking with insurance representatives.

We’ll take over from there: investigating ownership, securing animal control reports, and building a strong liability claim.
