Man's arm being bitten by a dog

An associate attorney for d’Oliveira and Associates, D. Robin Gouveia, obtained a $200,000 settlement for our client who was bitten by a dog. The dog’s owner negligently failed to keep the dog in a safe place, and as a result, our client was injured.

Attorney D. Robin Gouveia stated “With the help of a neutral mediator, we were able to advocate for this client who suffered a terrible dog bite wound.  We used the medical records and multiple scarring photos in the mediation to convince the insurance company to settle.  The final settlement included payment of her medical bills, which we were able to reduce, as well as compensation for the scarring, disfigurement and pain and suffering she endured.”
