Arizona is a strict-liability state for dog bites (A.R.S. § 11-1025): a Clifton owner is liable when their dog bites someone lawfully present, even with no prior history of aggression. A shorter one-year deadline applies to the strict-liability claim, while the general two-year personal-injury deadline (A.R.S. § 12-542) covers negligence claims. The defense insurers reach for is provocation (A.R.S. § 11-1027), raised in nearly every case, so what happened in the seconds before the bite matters. A negligence claim against an owner who ignored a leash ordinance or knew the dog was dangerous keeps the longer two-year window but requires proving fault. Photographing the wound as it heals is worth as much as the medical records, because scarring is valued on how it looks months later. Consultations are free and there is no fee unless we win.
