Injured by a Dog in Salinas? Contact Us at (888) 315-0588
Dog bites are extremely common in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 4.5 million people are bitten by dogs each year, with about 885,000 people needing medical attention for their injuries. Nearly half of these cases are children.
Dog owners have a certain amount of liability for their pets in the state of California, especially if the owner didn’t take proper care to restrain their dog. If you or a loved one has been attacked by a dog due to its owner’s negligence, you may be able to file a claim for compensation to help pay for you or your medical bills, pain and suffering, or lost wages.

Christian is the best! He helped me in a very difficult custody situation. My son was getting physically abused. It was so difficult to see the court system not trying to protect my son. But Christian never gave up and fought for my son like he was his own. I will forever be grateful to him and his Wonderful paralegal Jana. So when I say they are the BEST, believe me they are! My son is now out of harms way because of Christian never giving up. So don't waste your time on other attorneys that will not care for the BEST interest of your child. You cannot put a price on peace of mind.Angie

Christian Scott came highly recommended. From our first consultation together back in 2019 I knew I would be in good hands. It has been a long journey together. Despite all the difficulties and never ending battles with my case, I have always been able to trust that Mr. Scott has and continues to do what is in the best interest of my case. He has always listened, takes into consideration what I've presented, yet still offers his own recommendations and guidance that is based on his many years of experience. Offering his open, fair, honest and genuine realistic input has been been like having a family member fight for you when you have needed it in the lowest times of your life.Cynthia G.
