Brain injury claims in Mississippi
A brain injury can come from a car wreck, a fall, a workplace accident or a medical error. The symptoms, such as memory loss, headaches, mood changes and trouble concentrating, may not show up right away, and they often need medical testing to document. A claim usually depends on proving how the injury happened, who was at fault and how it affects the person’s work and daily life.
Mississippi’s general deadline for negligence claims is three years (Miss. Code Ann. § 15-1-49), but shorter deadlines apply to claims against government entities and medical providers. At the Law Offices of John R. Reeves, PC, John R. Reeves reviews the medical records and the facts of the accident to explain what options may exist.
