What should I do after a car accident to protect my claim?

00:00My name is Alicia Taylor. I'm a personal injury attorney in Miami and this is what I tell my clients to do after a car accident. Most people accidentally hurt their injury claim 24 hours after a car accident and they don't even realize it. Doing these three things early can help protect your health and your claim. Get medical care immediately after an accident even if you feel fine. Adrenaline lies. Be careful what you say to insurance companies. They're not your friend and you're not required to give a recorded statement right away. And lastly, document everything. Photos, injuries, timelines, before memory fades.
