Firm Opens Offices Throughout New York State
Patchogue, NY (FreePR.org) -- In response to client demand and in an effort to best serve its clients throughout New York State, The New York Dog Bite Lawyer(SM) announced that it recently opened offices in New York City, Albany, Syracuse, Buffalo and Plattsburgh, joining its main office in Patchogue, New York.
The firm’s five new locations include:
● 43 West 43rd Street, Suite 429, New York, NY
● 1060 Broadway, Suite 1142, Albany, NY
● 3 Chevy Drive, Suite 1057, E. Syracuse, NY
● 4498 Main St., Suite 4, Buffalo, NY
● 77 Consumer Square, Suite 1016, Plattsburgh, NY
The firm’s principal is Mack Press, a seasoned trial lawyer with more than 30 years of litigation experience. Early in his career, he handled complex litigation at major New York law firms, including personal injury, insurance, and unfair competition cases. In 2012, he launched The Mack Firm, where he litigated nationwide class action lawsuits and represented countless plaintiffs, including in high-profile cases against Samsung and Lance Armstrong.
Last year, he started The New York Dog Bite Lawyer(SM) to help those who have been attacked by dogs and advocate for the rehabilitation of animals that attack.
Mr. Press and his dog were victims themselves in April 2025, when he and his chocolate lab, Lucky, were viciously attacked by a loose dog. For several minutes, Mr. Press shielded Lucky from the vicious dog’s attacks, suffering more than 20 bites to his face, head, arms, legs, losing a front tooth and exacerbating an earlier back injury. Lucky underwent successful emergency surgery and, today, he is a healthy and happy dog.
On April 17, 2025, around the same time of the attack, the New York State Court of Appeals ruled in Flanders v. Goodfellow that a dog owner can be held liable, even if the dog had never bitten anyone before, thereby throwing out the “one-free-bite” rule, which initially gave dogs and owners a free pass if it was the first time the dog bit someone and was not known to be dangerous.
Mr. Press’ personal experience and the changes in the law created a passion for helping other victims. The changes in the law have made the firm’s growth possible, with many more victims being eligible to receive compensation for their injuries.
“This decision now incentivizes owners to control their pets and not allow them to run freely and attack other animals or humans,” Mr. Press said. “The attacks can be traumatizing for these victims and can result in grave injuries, large medical bills, and loss of income, just like any other serious personal injury case.”
In addition to his practice, Mr. Press is involved in animal advocacy. He is a dog lover and a supporter of many animal rescue organizations. His practice recently sponsored DogFest 2025 to support Canine Companions, an organization whose mission is to enhance the lives of people with disabilities by providing highly trained service dogs and ongoing support, free of charge. As part of his animal advocacy, Mr. Press seeks to include “no kill” clauses in settlements and require training for aggressive dogs rather than euthanasia.
“I don’t believe that a dog should be put down just because it bit a person,” Mr. Press said. “Rather, the dog should undergo behavioral training so it doesn’t attack again. The dog’s aggression could be the result of the owner either not training the dog to act properly around people or teaching it to become hostile. Our trademarked motto says it all: ‘BLAME THE OWNER, NOT THE DOG!(SM)’”
