Next Steps After a Dog Bite
After a dog bite, your health or that of your loved one is always a priority. Therefore, you should seek medical attention and even call 911 if required.
Other actions to consider include:
When possible, take pictures of your wounds, the dog and everything that could serve as evidence.
Get the contact information of witnesses and talk to them about what happened.
Once you get medical attention, keep all records of your medical diagnosis, prescribed treatment, therapy and other medical needs.
Keep a journal from the day of your accident to document any notable change in your daily routine and how you feel.
Determine If You Have a Case
One recommended additional step after a dog bite is to discuss your accident and share your evidence with a compassionate and skilled personal injury lawyer. I can help you understand the law regarding dog bites, whether we have sufficient grounds to file a lawsuit against the owner and your options for obtaining compensation. We will work together to determine the option that could help us fight for the compensation you deserve.
