Testimonials

  • I don’t have any medical bills, I’m receiving revenue for my pain and suffering, and I’m very appreciative. I am truly satisfied with the results of my case.
  • "The best part about having James Murphy as my workers' compensationlawyer is that I have someone to speak for me..."
  • The initial phone call made me feel as though they really cared. They made us feel like a number, and Murphy & Associates didn't. My wife and I have never gone through something like this before and accidents can be devastating to a family because of loss of income, pain and suffering.
  • Murphy & Associates made my experience fast and easy, and got the job done.
  • Murphy & Associates Car Accident Law firm is professional, efficient, and a pleasant experience doing business with.
  • I was involved in a rear-end collision while stopped at a red light. Mr. Murphy and his staff guided me through this long process from obtaining medical treatment to settling with the other party's insurance company.

Avoid Being Attacked By A Dog | Georgia Dog Bite Attorney

Date: April 6, 2011
Location: State of Georgia | Douglasville Dog Bite Attorney
Type: Dog bite accident

Statistics show that dog bites/attacks are more common among children, elderly, and service providers (mail man, meter readers, home health nurses) here are some common ways to protect yourself and your loved ones:

  • Avoid running from a dog. Dog's are natural chasers and become more aggressive when they are excited
    Infants and children should not be left alone with a dog
    Never reach over a dog's fenced in area. Dog's are protective of "their" territories.
    Children should be taught not to approach a strange dog
    Do not pet or disturb a dog who is eating, sleeping or feeding puppies
    Never run away suddenly if a dog is about to attack you. Remain still and avoid eye contact. If you must, back away slowly and stay calm.
    If you are attacked and on the ground, try to protect your face and neck with your arms.
