Facial Scarring Claims After A Dog Bite In Security-Widefield
McCormick & Murphy are Security-Widefield dog bite scarring lawyers for people left with facial scarring after a dog bite. We file in El Paso County Combined Courts.
A dog bite to the face can leave more than a physical mark. Serious permanent disfigurement can be part of what the statute treats as serious bodily injury, which matters when we frame the claim and evaluate what happened to you.
The dog owner liability statute covers economic damages, including medical care tied to the bite. But scarring itself is a noneconomic loss, and pursuing compensation for that disfigurement often requires a separate negligence claim built on how the owner kept or controlled the dog.
We look at both paths together. That means examining the medical bills and treatment record for the economic side, and the owner's conduct, the dog's history, and the circumstances of the attack for the negligence side.
Documenting Facial Scars From Initial Injury Through Healing
Facial wounds change over time. Emergency treatment addresses the immediate injury, but infection risk, nerve damage, and the need for scar revision often surface later. We do not promise a particular medical outcome, but we do make sure the record reflects the full course of care as it unfolds.
Photos taken at different stages, from the initial injury through healing and any revision work, are core evidence in a scarring claim. Combined with the treating records, they let us show what happened and how the injury has affected you, without guessing at future costs or outcomes.
- Photos of the facial wound taken regularly as it heals
- All treatment records, including any follow-up or revision care
- Notes on any nerve symptoms like numbness or altered sensation
- Contact information for the dog owner and any witnesses
- Records of the location and circumstances where the bite occurred

Facial Scarring Questions From Security-Widefield Dog Bite Clients
Do I need Security-Widefield dog bite scarring lawyers after an injury?
Call Security-Widefield dog bite scarring lawyers when you were hurt, fault is disputed, or an insurer delays, denies, or offers less than the medical bills. The nearest office is at 929 W Colorado Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80905.
Does the dog bite statute cover my facial scarring directly?
The statute's owner liability provision covers economic damages like medical care. Scarring itself is a noneconomic loss, so compensating for the disfigurement often calls for a separate negligence claim based on the owner's conduct.
What if my scarring gets worse or needs more treatment later?
Facial injuries can require staged care, including revision work after the initial healing. We track your treatment as it develops rather than assuming the case is finished after the first round of care.
What proof matters most in a facial scarring case?
Photographs taken over time and the treating medical records are central. They show how the injury looked at each stage and document the care you received.
Can nerve damage from a facial bite be part of my claim?
Yes. Nerve injury is a recognized consequence of facial bites and should be documented in your treatment records alongside the wound itself and any scarring.
Where would a facial scarring claim from Security-Widefield be handled?
These claims can proceed through El Paso County Combined Courts. We also work with treatment records from providers like UCHealth Memorial Hospital Central in Colorado Springs.
