Dog Bite Injury Claims – No Win No Fee Solicitor Bolton, Bury, Manchester and Nationwide


Dog bites and animal attacks can cause serious physical injuries and lasting psychological trauma. Whether you were bitten in a public place, on private property, or while working, you may be entitled to compensation if the dog’s owner failed to control their animal.
At Inson Legal, I represent clients across Bolton, Greater Manchester and Lancashire, helping victims of dog attacks claim compensation on a No Win No Fee basis. If you’ve been injured by a dog, I can help you recover damages for your pain, suffering, and financial losses.
Your Rights Under the Law
Dog bite claims in England and Wales are typically brought under the Animals Act 1971, which makes an owner liable for injuries caused by their dog in certain circumstances. Additionally, under the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991, it is a criminal offence for a dog to be dangerously out of control in a public or private place.
You may have a strong claim if:
The dog was known to have aggressive tendencies like attacking postal deliveries
The owner failed to keep the dog under control
The attack occurred in a public space or due to negligence in a private setting
The incident could have been prevented with reasonable precautions
Even if the dog had never previously attacked anyone, owners can still be held responsible if they failed to act responsibly.
Common Injuries from Dog Attacks
Dog bites can result in:
Puncture wounds and lacerations
Nerve and tendon damage causing desensitisation and thermo-vulnerabilities.
Infections, including tetanus or sepsis
Permanent scarring and disfigurement
Facial injuries or loss of limbs in severe cases
Psychological trauma, including anxiety, PTSD, and fear of dogs
Children are particularly vulnerable to dog attacks and often suffer injuries to the face and neck, with long-term emotional consequences.
What You Can Claim For?
Compensation for a dog bite injury can cover:
Medical treatment, including surgery and wound care
Scarring and disfigurement, including the cost of cosmetic or corrective procedures
Psychological therapy or counselling
Loss of earnings or impact on future income
Pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life
Travel costs and care support during recovery
I’ll ensure your claim reflects the full impact the injury has had on your life, both physically and emotionally.
