COMMON DOG BITE ACCIDENT INJURIES IN BEVERLY HILLS

Such factors as the size of a dog and how aggressive it tends to be will influence the types of injuries a dog bite victim may sustain. Typical dog bite injuries include the following:

  • Facial disfigurement
  • Muscle, ligament, and tendon tears
  • Severed arteries and/or veins
  • Broken bones
  • Severe permanent scarring
  • Puncture wounds
  • Lacerations
  • Emotional and/or mental harm
  • Severe PTSD, anxiety, and depression
  • Infections

Dog attacks can also cause injuries resulting from accidents that are byproducts of an initial dog attack. For example, if a dog attempts to bite you, chase you, or jump on you, you might fall and strike your head, resulting in a traumatic brain injury.

WHAT YOU MUST DO AFTER A DOG BITE ACCIDENT IN BEVERLY HILLS

Again, numerous factors will contribute to the severity of the injuries a victim may sustain when a dog bites them. If you were to be bitten or attached, you might not sustain any severe visible injuries. Thus, you may assume you do not need medical attention. Don’t make this mistake. It is always wise to see a doctor immediately after a dog bite accident or attack. Even if you think that a dog bite has not resulted in any broken bones or other serious injuries, if left untreated, a dog can bite to lead to an infection or rabies.

If a dog has bitten you, see a doctor right away. At the very least, doing so will give you the peace of mind that a medical professional has confirmed that you do not need to worry about any injuries or infections. On the other hand, if a doctor finds that you need care, you will be more likely to have a better and faster recovery if you receive the treatment you need as soon as possible.

Seeing a doctor soon after your dog bite attack will improve your chances of recovering compensation later. When filing a claim with an insurance company, providing evidence showing a link between the accident in question and the injuries you sustained is essential. You cannot give an insurance carrier reason to argue that your injuries might be related to a separate incident. If you saw a doctor promptly after being bitten by a dog, you will have documentation proving that your injuries resulted from a dog bite.

WHAT TO DO AFTER A DOG BITE OR ATTACK?

    1. See a medical doctor or go to the emergency room.
    2. Obtain the dog owner’s contact information and residence address.
    3. Obtain the name of the dog’s veterinarian.
    4. Obtain proof of insurance and current rabies vaccination.
    5. Obtain contact information of any witnesses.
    6. Obtain photos of the dog, your insurance, and the dog owner.
