PTSD Resulting from Dog Attacks

When you have been the victim of a vicious dog attack, some of the most pervasive injuries may not be visible to the human eye. Frequently, when you have been exposed to the raw aggression of an uncontrolled dog, you can experience severe emotional distress or a nagging fear that can make it difficult for you to participate in many of the ordinary acts of day-to-day life. You have a right to seek compensation for what is known as “post-traumatic stress disorder” or PTSD. The office of Harold J. Gerr, Attorney at Law, can help.

Dog Bite Victims — Dealing With Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

PTSD is a condition not normally associated with dog attacks, but the definition fits. PTSD has been identified as a mental health condition that “is triggered by a terrifying event.” If you have been the victim of an attack by a vicious dog, you know just how terrifying it can be. It can result in a wide range of conditions, such as nightmares or other sleep disturbances, irritability and anxiety. With children, it can lead to regressive behavior, such as bed-wetting or thumb sucking, and may cause problems in attention or focus at school or during other activities.

We will help you pursue full and fair compensation for any injuries you have suffered as a result of a vicious dog attack. We will help you seek damages for all that you have lost, from wages and income to companionship or consortium to the costs of medical or psychological treatment.
