Beware of Dog Sign Liability

Answer:

In Pennsylvania, there is what people call the “one bite” rule. People think this means that you can only recover if a dog has previously bitten someone, but there are other factors, that should be looked at to determine whether there’s liability for a dog attack. One might be whether there are “Beware of Dog” signs posted. Although some people think that that means there is no responsibility because you were warned, in fact, that sign might be evidence that the dog owner, knew about their dog’s propensity to attack and knew that their dog was dangerous. The mere hanging of a sign is not doing enough to protect you from that dog attack.
