A: A Mississippi attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. I'm sorry about your accident. You could reach out to local attorneys to see if they could help you review the matter. But unfortunately, since this happened 14 years ago, that timeline probably closes a lot of doors. If it wasn't placed in suit, the SOL has probably long since passed. If it was a case that was concluded, the other side probably wrapped things up with a release which ended the opportunity for coming back for more money. But these are only general guesses. Your most reliable way to determine your rights here would be to review the file with a local attorney. An experienced attorney might be able to review your matter for other possible options - disability? workers' comp? See if you could arrange a free initial consult with a Mississippi attorney - that would probably be your best starting point in sorting things out. Good luck

A: Addendum - Before reaching out to attorneys, maybe see first if you could touch base with your original attorney. If they saved the file, they would know best about the terms on which your matter was closed. I hope you are able to find a solution to your situation. Good luck
