What to do if bitten

Your dog bite injury matters

Any accident or injury is frightening, but being attacked by an animal is a disturbing experience unlike any other. It is important to try to remain calm and take the right steps to protect yourself. This will also support your dog bite claim.

If you are bitten by a dog, do the following:

  • Get prompt, appropriate medical attention.
  • Retain copies of all medical records and other information.
  • Notify the police and/or animal control officer of the attack.
  • If you are able to determine where the dog lives, and who owns it, provide this information to the authorities.
  • If possible, take photos of the site of the dog bite attack and of the dog (do not attempt to do so if it puts you at risk of being attacked again).
  • Contact a law firm experienced in dog bite cases.
