facial surgery after dog attack

Dog attack results in $700K settlement, successful plastic surgery

October 4, 2024

When T.A. was viciously mauled in a dog attack incident near her home in Southern Ontario, one that involved a neighbour’s pet, she was left with debilitating facial injuries. Those resulting injuries were both physical and psychological in nature.

The attacking canine had a history of aggression and was subsequently ordered to be destroyed by local authorities. With the guidance and expertise of the Leone Murray LLP team, the case was swiftly moved toward settlement resulting in a payment of close to $700,000 for the victim. That came after our lawyers took the time necessary to understand how the injuries had impacted T.A.’s life and earning potential, along with her ability to achieve her future goals.

T.A. was able to use the personal injury settlement to recover fully after suffering those catastrophic injuries. That included obtaining the necessary plastic surgery and a complete facial reconstruction, which helped her return to life as normal as possible under the circumstances. This sustained process involved our lawyers and support staff building a team of medical professionals to help address T.A.’s short- and long-term needs, along with engaging the help of highly qualified rehabilitation experts.
