Get the necessary medical attention - whether this is to check for rabies, get a few stitches, or emergency cosmetic surgery, the victim should be taken to the hospital right away.
Call the appropriate authorities, such as the local animal control center, as well as the local police - by reporting the incident to animal control, the authorities can take the necessary steps to prevent another dog bite attack. By notifying the police, you can obtain a written report of the incident, which can support your injury claim.
Document the victim's injuries by taking photographs, and keeping any medical records and medical receipts - these things can be used as evidence in a personal injury claim.

Attorney Review

Aaron of Clinton says "very trust worthy, knowledgeable and made me very comfortable with this case as I never had a Worker Comp case before. He always returned my calls and e-mails in a timely manner and answered every question I had as I had a lot of them. His books were very useful to me in this case as well."
