Knowing what to do after becoming the victim of a crime can be confusing, especially when in shock. However, your best step is to dial 911 immediately for law enforcement and medical help, if required. Police officers will likely collect evidence at the crime scene right away and might even identify and locate your attacker.
In the days after your attack or assault, you can take steps that protect your rights and could help you recover compensation, including:
Collecting evidence of the incident, such as photographs of the crime scene
Seeking medical advice and obtaining a medical report if you have not already done so
Contacting a negligent security attorney to determine whether you have a legal claim
