Dog Injury Liability Wisconsin

Full Conversation

I'm not sure if I need a lawyer or what type of lawyer
Hello Jocelyn, to provide you with the most accurate information, could you please tell me more about the legal issue you're facing?
My dog got out and got to our neighbors house, no one was bit, but the neighbor claims he broke his hand slapping the dog. My husband saw him punching the dog. He wants us to pay all his medical bills and time off work.
Hello Jocelyn, sorry to hear that. Can you please tell me where you're located so I can provide the most relevant information?
Wisconsin
In Wisconsin, dog owners may be held liable for any injuries their dog causes under certain circumstances. However, if your neighbor injured his hand by punching your dog, courts may consider this as self-inflicted. It's recommended to consult a personal injury attorney.
