Mark C. Blane, a skilled San Diego dog bite injury lawyer based at 3111 Camino Del Rio N Ste 400 (619-813-7955), successfully represented a Santee/Lakeside woman against a negligent owner whose pit bull caused serious injuries requiring plastic surgery by Dr. Jose Otero at Sharp Grossmont Hospital. Blane documented the permanent scarring with forensic photos and demonstrated his client’s psychological trauma, noting how she avoided wearing apparel showing her left arm scar and suffered flashbacks of the terrifying attack where the dog’s jaws clamped down and wouldn’t release. The attorney successfully argued that his client’s husband also suffered Negligent Infliction of Emotional Distress and Loss of Consortium, having witnessed the attack and fended off the dog with a pitchfork. Blane effectively established that the husband experienced emotional distress from potentially saving his wife’s life and suffered from the impact on their marriage’s intimacy and household duties. The case was resolved without prolonged litigation, showcasing Blane’s expertise in California dog bite injury claims.
