Healing from a severe injury can be challenging. You might require a hospital stay for surgery, evaluation, and other medical treatments. After discharge, you might need to follow up with your doctor and pursue an aggressive course of rehabilitation and physical therapy. Dealing with the stress of your injury and any resulting health limitations might cause you to become anxious, depressed, or fearful. You might need to seek treatment to address your physical, emotional, and psychological needs.

A Waco personal injury lawyer might be able to help you address your needs. The diligent attorneys with Chad Jones Law could help you pursue financial recovery in a legal claim.
Whenever one person or entity’s actions or inactions cause another person to suffer an injury, there could be grounds for a personal injury suit. In order for a personal injury suit to succeed, the plaintiff and their lawyer must effectively establish fault on behalf of a person or entity. They do this by showing negligence.
Most personal injury claims involve accidents that occur because someone was careless or reckless. Even if a wrongdoer does not mean for an accident to happen, they still should be responsible for their mistakes if those mistakes directly cause harm to someone.
To succeed in a legal claim, a claimant must prove that the wrongdoer owed them a duty of care to protect their wellbeing. They would then need to show that the negligent party breached that duty of care, which caused the claimant to suffer an injury as a direct result.
In Waco, and in all of Texas, prospective plaintiffs have only two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations. Injured individuals must file before this deadline or else risk their claim being denied outright. It is critical to work with a lawyer in order to ensure the claim is filed correctly and on time. There might also be an altered statute of limitations depending on the circumstances, which a lawyer could identify.
