We were recommended to Eason & Tambornini by my brother-in-law after he had a great experience with them, and we're glad we reached out. We worked with Eric and Francesca, who were both incredibly nice to work with, responsive, patient, and always helpful throughout the entire process. They took care of everything for us and made the whole experience as easy and stress-free as possible. I also really appreciated that there were no upfront costs and that their payment was simply taken out of the final settlement. We had a great experience overall and would definitely recommend them.
Worked with them for a car accident and I was satisfied with the professionalism and the persistence of standing up for me. Would recommend!
We are incredibly grateful for everything this firm did for my dad. They guided us through the entire process, took the time to explain everything, and made a difficult situation much easier to navigate. A special shout-out to Alex for always taking our calls, being patient, and making sure my dad understood everything, especially since English isn’t his first language. We truly appreciate all the hard work and dedication. Highly recommend!
My family and I worked with Eason & Tambornini after a car accident and I’m so grateful we found them. The aftermath of the accident was stressful and overwhelming but from the moment we reached out they were there to support us. I especially want to recognize Francesca. She was absolutely wonderful to work with—always easy to communicate with, incredibly helpful, and most importantly so understanding and compassionate. She made everything feel manageable without ever making us feel overwhelmed. Her kindness and genuine care really stood out to us. I appreciate their hard work and dedication to our case & I would absolutely recommend Eason & Tambornini.
I was injured in a hit and run accident which left me in a state of shock. I called Eason and Tambornini. Within a few days, I was visited by Chris and assured they would be with me all the way. By the time I met Kristen, she was well into processing and compiling documents and clearly assured me I would receive the best of care. I felt full inclusion from day one. You can trust the team at Eason Tambornini for all your needs. Thanks to you
Mine was a difficult case involving 4 separate insurance companies. My attorney was patient, persistent, knowledgeable, firm, and resourceful. Excellent - well pleased!
Everyone was very easy to talk to, friendly and helpful.
The SIBTF Process I needed to stop working because of job related injuries. After receiving my workers compensation settlement, I worried about getting another job that could supplement my retirement. Staff at Eason & Tamborini explained that I might be eligible for the SIBTF program. SIBTF is a complicated process. Eason & Tamborini walked me through the requirements and handled the paperwork. It was worth the wait. They kept me updated regarding new developments. When a settlement was reached, I was surprised to learn that I would not have to take on a new job to supplement my retirement. The SIBTF checks I receive each month are a huge help. Special thanks to Omar, Erin, Elideth, Miraslav, Wendy and others who worked hard to make this possible. Thank you.
Very professional and friendly experience. Will use and recommend this law firm for any future needs. Rando Rodriguez is truly the best and all of his associates as well.
I really want to emphasize how incredible this team is, from Seth - the lawyer who handled my case, Becca the legal assistant or Michelle who I believe was apart of the support staff; the same result every time: incredible communication and follow through. From the moment that I met Seth, he was clear on what his role was, How the case would proceed forward, And gave clear guidance on what I should do. He explained the legal theory around the case, And as a result, resolved my matter getting more than 200% more than we had expected. To say that he was a great lawyer would be an understatement. He was also an incredible human. His story and called to action for why he got into this business resonate throughout his work. I would recommend anyone use this firm if you find yourself in any personal injury related matter. Thank you again Eason and Torbornini. And thank you Seth.

Why Dog’s Attack

Yuba City Dog Bite AttorneysA dog’s demeanor and behavior can change unexpectedly. A dog bite is frightening whether an off-leash dog becomes aggressive, corners you in a park or yard, or you are taken by surprise and bitten by a leashed dog. Some common reasons dogs attack include fear or surprise, pain or sickness, and excitement. Some dogs, for example, think they are playing, but if they break the skin, it should be treated like a bite and taken seriously.

Common Reasons Dogs Attack

  • Feeling scared or threatened
  • Feeling protective of themselves, their pups, their owners, or their food
  • Past abuse (which makes them easily threatened and fearful)

Whatever the reason, if you’ve been bitten, you may be entitled to a significant settlement that covers your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Our Yuba City dog bite attorneys can sort out the facts and help with a speedy and fair resolution.

  • Emergency medical treatment, if necessary
  • Ongoing or follow-up medical expenses
  • Cosmetic surgery/reconstruction
  • Loss of income
  • Inability to work at the same job you previously held

Our dog bite attorneys charge no upfront fees. You will only pay a fee if and when you win.

Non-Economic Damages of a Dog Bite

The non-economic damages that a dog bite can bring vary. From physical pain to long-term scarring, victims of dog bites sometimes suffer from mental health issues associated with a fear of dogs or other animal attacks that may affect someone’s quality of life. Securing a lawyer is essential to determining what you have a legal right to concerning non-economic damages.

Statutory (State-to-State) Strict Liability

Regardless of the dog’s history of aggressive behavior, the dog owner must pay damages for the victim’s injury. And while a dog owner may have never witnessed aggressive behavior before, he is nevertheless responsible. A competent, experienced lawyer will be well-versed in the laws specific to the area.

Punitive Damages

Victims may receive punitive damages for grossly negligent or intentional harm. For example, suppose the dog’s owner knew it had a history of violent or aggressive behavior but did nothing to prevent it from interacting with you. In that case, the owner may be ordered to pay punitive damages in addition to the other (compensatory) damages. Your legal team can advocate for punitive damages if the evidence shows you deserve them.

What do I do if a dog attacks me and I don’t know who or where the owner is?

If you do not need emergency treatment and cannot locate the owner, please call the police right away. Take pictures of the dog and where the bite occurred, if possible. You should do this whether the owner is present, even if they do not want you to. If the owner is uncooperative or aggressive, leave the situation and contact one of our skilled lawyers as soon as possible for a free consultation.

How do I know if I need to go to the hospital or doctor if a dog bites me?

Dog bites are classified by severity level on a scale of 1 – 6. If you believe your wound is severe enough, go to the hospital or see a doctor immediately. Also, take pictures before and after treatment. Your attorney will want to include these in the evidence collection.
