        "text": "The process generally begins with a free consultation to discuss your case. If the lawyer takes your case, they will investigate the incident, gather evidence like medical records and witness statements, and notify the dog owner and their insurance company. They will then negotiate with the insurance company for a fair settlement. If negotiations fail, a lawsuit may be filed, potentially leading to mediation or a trial.",
