Steps to Take After a
Dog Bite Incident
protect your health and legal rights.
Here are the critical steps to take:
- Even if the bite seems minor, seek medical help right away. Dog bites can lead to infections or serious injuries, and it’s important to have the wound properly cleaned and treated.
- Get a medical record of your injury, as this will be crucial for any legal action.
Find out who owns the dog. If the dog has an owner, ask for their contact details and verify the dog’s vaccination records, especially for rabies. This information will be important for both your medical treatment and any legal claims.
Contact local animal control or law enforcement to report the dog bite. They will investigate the situation and file a report, which may be important if you pursue legal action.
Take photos of your injuries, the dog, and the area where the incident occurred. These photos can serve as evidence if you need to file a claim or lawsuit.
If there were any witnesses to the dog bite, collect their names and contact information. Their statements may help support your case.
Do not make any statements about fault to the dog owner, their insurance company, or others involved without consulting an attorney. Anything you say could be used against you later.
Document the incident thoroughly. Keep records of your medical treatments, any lost wages due to missed work, and the emotional or physical impact of the injury.
Contact an experienced personal injury attorney who handles dog bite cases. They can advise you on your legal rights and help you seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.
