What to do if I broke my back falling from a zipline at a residence just over 2 years ago?
I had surgery and they fused bone from my hip to fix the break and put in rods and screws. I have given my healing 2 years and the pain is getting worse. Do I have a case or is it to late to file?

It may be too late for you to file an injury claim at this point. It depends on the state where the accident occurred. All states have a statute of limitations, which is a window of time in which an injured person has to file an injury claim. In most states the statute of limitations is two years from the date of the accident. I would suggest you contact an attorney in your area who specializes in personal injury. He or she will be able to tell you if you are still within a time frame in which you can bring a claim. They will also be able to hear all the facts of your case and help you determine what your legal options might be at this point. Good luck to you.
