It’s About Time the Blame Shifts From the Dogs to the Owners.
As a society, far too many people are quick to blame the dog when a person is bit.  At Bailey Law Firm, we firmly believe that people are to blame, not dogs.  It is the negligent, careless, irresponsible and even reckless conduct of owners that leads to serious dog bite injuries.
