The document discusses the benefits of hiring a lawyer after being bitten by a dog. It notes that dog bites injure millions in America each year. A lawyer can help ensure compensation for medical bills from the bite and negotiate a higher payout than an insurance adjuster alone. Gathering evidence soon after the bite with a lawyer's assistance can strengthen the case in court. The first steps after a bite are seeking medical care and then contacting a personal injury lawyer.
