What should I do after I’ve been bitten and attacked by a dog?

Transcript:

Hello everyone. This is Jim Parish with the Parish law firm. I’m a Virginia dog bite injury attorney. Today I would answer the question; “what would you do if you or a loved one is bitten or attacked by a dog?”

The first thing you should do is seek medical treatment if it’s needed. Also, make sure that you report this dog bite or attack to the appropriate authorities. One, you want to make sure there is a written record of what occurred. And also, you need to establish a record against that animal because you don’t want that animal doing this type of thing to someone else. Thank you
