What Evidence Is Needed For A Dog Bite Lawsuit?

Return to Dog Bite Center Main

Having strong evidence to support your dog bite claim can increase the chances of its success and maximize your damages. Medical records serve as a key piece of evidence in dog attack cases.

Getting medical treatment right away after a dog bite not only helps you avoid infection but also ensures the extent and nature of your injuries are properly documented. Your doctor’s report will establish a clear link between the injuries you suffered and the dog attack.

Local law enforcement or animal control will create a report on the incident. Be sure to obtain a copy of the report as it will contain details of what happened.

To file a dog bite lawsuit, you need to identify the dog owner. Get the contact information for the dog’s owner and any witnesses who saw the attack. Witnesses can provide powerful testimony to support your account of the incident.

Physical evidence can be instrumental during a lawsuit. Save clothing that was ripped or otherwise damaged during the dog attack. Try to document the dog bite by taking photos of the scene and your wounds. Ask someone for assistance if necessary.

A dog bite lawyer can help you collect and preserve evidence for your case. If you are unsure of your rights after getting injured in a dog attack, contact Briskman Briskman & Greenberg today. Our compassionate and experienced Chicago dog bite lawyers can help you understand your next steps.
