Dog Owners in Pasadena Have Strict Liability for Their Animals—What This Means for You
California Civil Code § 3342 clearly states that “The owner of any dog is liable for the damages suffered by any person who is bitten by the dog while in a public place or lawfully in a private place…”
The owner of the dog that bit you or your loved one may have been negligent in one or more ways, possibly including by:
- Allowing the dog off leash in a public space
- Failing to ensure the dog was adequately confined within the owner’s yard
- Failing to warn you that the dog was aggressive
- Failing to use a muzzle or any other resource that reduces the likelihood of a dog bite
- Engaging in any other action or failure to act that led to the dog biting you
Our firm represents any victim of dog bites. From delivery people to joggers, bike riders, and other pedestrians hurt through no fault of their own, KJT Law Group fights for those victimized by dog owners’ negligence.

How We Have Won Fair Compensation for Dog Bite Victims in Pasadena (and Elsewhere)
Remember that we are going to create an original, personalized strategy specific to you and your case. That said, we have secured fair compensation for many dog bite survivors by:
Proving Why the Dog Bite Happened (and Who Is at Fault)
Important evidence we may use to establish who is at fault includes:
- Photographs of any conditions that led to the bite (such as a dilapidated fence that allowed an aggressive dog to escape)
- Testimony from witnesses who saw the bite or other relevant circumstances (like past instances of aggression from the dog)
- Relevant expert testimony
- Relevant video footage
Evidence of negligence is a critical component of every dog bite case, so we will immediately pursue all evidence that benefits yours.
Applying California Law to Prove Negligence
Our attorneys understand California’s statutes relating to aggressive animals. We will cite the specific law that indicates a dog owner or other at-fault party is liable for the harm you have suffered.
Documenting Damages

These are just some of the many resources we may use to prove the nature and cost of your bite-related damages.
Demanding a Fair Settlement
Once we determine which insurance company or at-fault party owes you compensation, we will present our settlement demands. We may need to exhaust multiple negotiations before receiving the offer you deserve.
