Why should I call an attorney after I got bit by a dog?

If you get bit by a dog, you may be eligible for compensation. However, you need to contact a personal injury attorney right away. An experienced attorney like Fernando D. Vargas can help you:

  • Explain your legal rights and options following a dog bite
  • Gather evidence proving liability for the dog bite
  • Get proper medical care
  • Set up a plastic surgery medical-legal evaluation regarding treatment to prevent or correct scarring
  • Accurately value your damages
  • Negotiate for a fair settlement with the dog owner’s insurance provider
  • Take your case to court if needed
