If you are victim of a dog bite in South Carolina you may be entitled to compensation. SC paid out approximately $1.7 million in 2016 for numerous dog bite claims – averaging nearly $25,000 per claim.

Being bitten or otherwise attacked by a dog or group of dogs can be very frightening for the victim, and can leave serious, lasting injuries. In some cases those injuries never fully heal, and they can reduce the ability to work and the quality of life a person has after the attack. Both mental and physical health issues come into play from the trauma of being attacked by one or more dogs, and victims want – and deserve – proper compensation for the suffering they endure.
