On 3/1/21, your attorney for dog bites in Berks County Pennsylvania filed a Petition for Minor’s Compromise Settlement pursuant to PA Rule of Civil Procedure No. 2029. Attorney Thomas J. Newell’s 9 page legal pleading described for the Berks County Orphans’ Court a 7/8/16 unprovoked dog attack that took place in Reading, PA.
As required by Pennsylvania Law, when Attorney Newell obtains a tentative settlement agreement with the dog owner’s homeowners insurance company, he is required to seek court approval. The Berks County dog attack lawyer provided proof that the defendants’ insurance company offered its $100,000.00 liability limit, as well as its $1,000.00 medical expense payment limit.
