Intensive investigations and evidence preservation in dog bite cases
At your initial consultation we will begin gathering evidence for your case. We will contact witnesses, retrieve police reports, medical documentation, photographs, and other necessary evidence for your case. It is important to consult with an attorney to ensure that the evidence in your case is recovered and preserved before negotiations, settlement, or trial. All evidence can be powerful leverage to ensure that you recover the compensation you are entitled to.
