To ensure the best possible outcome, the lawyers at Sloat, Nicholson, & Hoover, P.C. will help you through these critical steps:

1. Seek Medical Attention: Even minor injuries should be treated to help avoid infection or serious complications. Let a doctor assess the dog bite injury and provide any necessary treatment to provide a clear medical record.
