To many times I have seen over the years when a person is injured after a car accident and goes to the Hospital that person does not disclose all injuries they are suffering from as a result of the accident.  The emergency room visit and record just after the accident is  most important and is something the insurance companies and their lawyers focus on to discredit your case.  That's why it is so important when you initially go to the hospital after the accident you be completely ACCURATE AND HONEST about your injuries to the hospital staff.    If you are not accurate and honest about your injuries this can severely affect your ability to get fair compensation in your case.
