When to retain a lawyer for a dog bite claim
No one ever expects to be injured as a result of a dog attack or dog bite, but unfortunately these injuries do occur. At what point should you consult a lawyer to help you with your dog bite claim? When you are injured by a dog, or if a loved one or family member is injured, the problems can be overwhelming.
- Some of these concerns may be financial: who is going to pay for your medical bills, lost wages and for your pain and suffering?
- There could be legal issues involved: what benefits are you entitled to right now and what benefits could you be entitled to in the future? How long do you have to file a dog bite claim? What papers should you sign or not sign?
- There are also emotional and psychological problems that are caused by the dog attack and the changes it renders in your life or in the life of someone close to you.
That's why we recommend that if you, or someone you care about, are injured by a dog, you should consider having an attorney represent you in your dog bite injury claim. We say "consider," because not every claim requires an attorney. At Edgar Snyder & Associates, we will give you a free, no obligation consultation and advise you of your legal rights. If we don't think you need an attorney, we will tell you so.
If you decide to become our client, you will benefit from the combined knowledge and experience of our team of professionals. A team, including an Attorney, Paralegal and other support staff, will work on your dog bite claim. Depending on the case, you may also have an Investigator as part of your team.
