Dogs Attack 2 Men at Larcus Ave and Moore Street

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (Feb. 27, 2018) – Two men suffered minor to moderate injuries in a dog attack Friday morning at Larcus Avenue and Moore Street, according to the Kern County Sheriff’s Office.

The men were attacked by a group of four mixed-breed dogs about 11 a.m. in east Bakersfield before police deputies arrived and shot two of them. One dog was killed and the other suffered a leg injury.

The two men were taken to Kern County Medical Center. One of the men suffered minor dog bites on both of his hands and the other had moderate injuries to his arms and legs.

The Kern County Animal Control took five dogs into custody, including a dead dog. Seven dogs were found living in the home occupied by the two men.

Witnesses may contact the sheriff’s office at 661-861-3110.

You have Questions. We have Answers.

What is My
Case Worth?

Should I talk to
Insurance Company

Your Answer

The first thing you should do is contact an attorney. Without the representation of a lawyer, insurance companies might make contact with you directly, and since they are trained to protect their best interests, this could mean a loss of rights on your behalf, especially if you unknowingly sign something that they didn't completely explain to you.

How Long will
it Take?

Your Answer

The length of a personal injury case depends on many factors including the evaluation and treatment of the injury. The bigger the injury, the longer it takes to treat. Attorney James Johnson helps you be aggressive with the treatment, so the average case normally takes between two and five months. Those who have serious injuries and need surgery may take several months longer. Call for a free consultation 800-208-3538, or complete the form below >

What if I'm
Not Insured?

Your Answer

Many victims believe if you don't have health insurance you don't have a case - this NOT true. In fact, those with health insurance usually don't use it since there are so many restrictions and steps to overcome to receive authorization for treatment. Johnson Attorneys Group assists you in finding the best doctors to help. Most of them even wait until a settlement for payment.

Can I Do It
Myself?

Your Answers

Handling a personal injury claim by yourself is very difficult. You will deal directly with the insurance adjuster who is often trained to obtain the information they are not entitled to use. This information can negatively impact and de-value your case. Once your case is damaged, it is very difficult to repair it and usually costs you thousands of dollars less in a settlement.

How Much
Does it Cost?

Your Answers

You do not pay anything unless you win. We work on a contingency-fee-basis, so we’re only paid if we win your case. When the case is settled, our fee is a percentage, as previously agreed, of the final settlement. These fees are described in full detail in our signed contract before work begins on the case. We cover the case upfront costs including everything from copying and court filing fees to hiring experts - so all your focus can be on getting well.
