Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about dog bite cases in Colorado

Is Colorado a strict liability state for dog bites?

Yes. Under Colorado's dog bite statute, a dog owner is strictly liable for serious bodily injuries caused by their dog, regardless of whether the dog has a history of aggression. This means you do not need to prove the owner was negligent. Shannon ensures this law works in your favor.

What compensation can I receive for a dog bite injury?

You may recover compensation for medical treatment (including reconstructive surgery), scarring and disfigurement, emotional trauma, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Shannon's RN background helps her accurately document wound severity and long-term scarring for maximum recovery.

What if the dog bite happened on the owner's property?

Colorado's strict liability statute applies regardless of where the bite occurred, as long as you were lawfully present. If you were invited or had a legal right to be on the property, the owner is liable for serious injuries caused by their dog.

Should I report a dog bite to animal control?

Yes. Reporting to animal control creates an official record that strengthens your legal claim. The report documents the incident, identifies the dog and owner, and may reveal prior complaints about the animal. Contact Shannon alongside filing your report.
