More details to this question:
I am a paraprofessional at a school district that works in a behavioral unit. I have injuries due to an 11 yr old student who has certain disabilities, but are questionable to his behavior and actions. I have an injured rotators cuff that was caused by him multiple times. His parent files false CPS case and police charges against me and were immediately dropped. I believe there was neglect with medication and medical care by his parents and his doctor. I feel there was neglect from the school to keep me safe from this child. I need some legal advise as to how to handle this

Because it appears you were injured while performing job duties, you may have a claim for workers' compensation. Did you report your injuries to your supervisor? When did you discover your injuries? Filing a workers' compensation claim would likely be your best chance at recovering in a lawsuit. You would need to start by filing an 'Employees Claim for Compensation' (DWC Form 041) with the Texas Division of Workers' Compensation.
It is possible you may also have a claim against parents/doctors, depending on the facts of your situation.
