Dog Bite Claims in Columbus
Most people think it starts and ends with the bite. It doesn’t. Medical records, witness statements, animal control reports, even photos taken minutes after the incident can shift how a claim plays out.
There’s also timing. Waiting too long can weaken your position. Evidence fades, memories shift, and insurance companies take advantage of the gap. Acting early puts you in a better place, even if you’re still deciding what to do.
