My mom lives in low income apartments in Seattle, Washington. She has had her dog (max) for about thirteen years as an emotional support pet for mental illness (PTSD, bipolar, depression) and two days ago two pitbulls that belong to another tenant in her building attacked Max and killed him right in front of my mom. There was another witness that talked to the police for my mom and explained what happened because my mom could not even speak. The attack happened on cameras outside of the building and this person had been cited multiple times before for his pitbulls attacking on the premises as well. Could my mom sue the Apartment complex for negligence and pain caused? This apartment complex is already really shady and pulling all kinds of illegal stuff on people that live there, but most people just deal with it because they have no other options. This just seems too far especially when they already had knowledge of these dogs attacking before and did nothing about it to protect the tenants, their children and pets.
