Holding dangerous owners accountable. Helping victims heal.

At Moreno Perdomo, we advocate for both adults and children who have suffered from dog attacks. These incidents can leave lasting scars — physical, emotional, and financial — that impact victims for years. Our role is to provide the legal strength, compassion, and strategy needed to pursue full compensation and to push for accountability that helps prevent future attacks.



Dog bite cases in Miami and throughout Florida are governed by strict liability laws, which means owners can be held responsible even if the dog has never bitten before. But that doesn’t mean insurers will pay willingly. We stand beside our clients every step of the way, taking on negligent owners, landlords, or property managers who failed to keep the public safe.

Beyond the courtroom, our mission is to help victims heal. We know how overwhelming recovery can feel, especially when medical bills, lost income, or trauma threaten to derail a family’s stability. By handling the legal process with diligence and care, we allow our clients to focus on recovery while we focus on results.

When you choose Moreno Perdomo, you gain more than a lawyer — you gain a committed advocate who will fight for justice in Miami-Dade courts and beyond.

Dog Bite Injury Law

Dog attacks can result in serious injuries, emotional trauma, and long-term complications. Whether the incident occurred in a public space like a Miami park or on private property such as a neighbor’s home, victims deserve protection under Florida law. At Moreno Perdomo, we stand with victims to pursue accountability and the compensation they deserve.

Medical expenses from dog bites can be significant. Victims may require surgery, rabies treatment, reconstructive procedures, or long-term therapy. In addition to the physical harm, many clients experience anxiety, fear of animals, or other emotional challenges. These damages deserve recognition in any legal claim.



Our attorneys approach these cases with precision, gathering medical records, witness statements, and veterinary histories to build strong claims. We also work closely with experts when necessary to prove both the physical and psychological impact of the attack.

With offices serving Miami, Broward, and South Florida, we know how to navigate Florida’s strict liability rules and insurance disputes. We pursue every case with urgency to ensure victims are not left carrying the financial and emotional burden alone.

Severe Injury & Scarring

Dog bites often result in severe injuries and permanent scarring, especially when children are involved. Deep lacerations, nerve damage, and facial injuries can require multiple surgeries and leave lifelong reminders of the attack. At Moreno Perdomo, we represent individuals across Miami-Dade and South Florida who are facing these painful outcomes.

The medical treatment for these injuries can be extensive and expensive. Victims may need reconstructive surgery, skin grafts, or long-term rehabilitation. In children, the damage can be even more devastating, as scars often grow and change with age, sometimes requiring repeated corrective procedures.

These injuries are not only physical — they carry a heavy emotional toll. Victims may feel embarrassed, self-conscious, or anxious in public, affecting their quality of life and relationships. Courts in Florida recognize these damages, and our attorneys make sure they are fully accounted for in every claim.



We fight to ensure that negligent owners and their insurers take responsibility. Our team combines compassion for victims with aggressive trial advocacy, pushing for settlements that cover both immediate and long-term needs.

Psychological Trauma

The effects of a dog bite extend far beyond the visible injuries. Many victims — particularly children — develop psychological trauma such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, or nightmares after an attack. At Moreno Perdomo, we recognize these invisible injuries and fight for compensation that reflects the full scope of harm.

Emotional trauma may appear as a fear of dogs, reluctance to go outdoors, difficulty concentrating, or sudden changes in behavior. Parents often notice these shifts in children long after the physical wounds have healed. These psychological injuries can last years, requiring therapy or counseling.

Our attorneys ensure these damages are not overlooked by insurers who may try to downplay them. We work with medical experts, psychologists, and therapists to document the full impact of the trauma on the victim’s daily life. This evidence strengthens our ability to secure fair compensation.



By representing families across Miami-Dade and South Florida, we send a clear message: emotional suffering matters, and negligent dog owners will be held accountable for all the harm their animals cause.

Liability & Dangerous Dog Claims

Florida law is clear: dog owners are generally strictly liable for the actions of their pets. That means victims don’t have to prove negligence — only that the attack occurred. At Moreno Perdomo, we use this law to build strong cases for clients in Miami, Broward, and across Florida, while also investigating deeper issues of liability.

We look into the dog’s history, including any prior incidents or reports of aggression. If the animal was previously labeled “dangerous” under Florida statutes, penalties and damages can increase significantly. Landlords and property owners may also share responsibility if they failed to address a known danger on their property.

Insurance coverage is another key factor. Many homeowners’ or renters’ insurance policies cover dog bites, but insurers often resist paying full value. Our attorneys negotiate aggressively with adjusters to ensure victims are not shortchanged.



By pursuing these claims thoroughly, we hold owners accountable and help reduce the risk of future attacks. When institutions or individuals ignore safety, our firm makes sure the consequences are clear — both in the courtroom and in the community.
