Personal Injury 

Our firm represents individuals involved in controversies alleging a wrong or damage to another's person, rights, reputation, or property resulting from events or activities such as automobile accidents, defective products, infliction of emotional distress, intentional misconduct, and negligence.

Mississippi provides a unique venue for personal injury litigation. The state was one of the first to adopt "pure" comparative negligence, rendering viable many claims for personal injury that could not be brought elsewhere. Mississippi law is also favorable to the plaintiff in areas of venue, statutes of limitations, damages for wrongful death, and punitive damages.

Personal injury and wrongful death practice is limited primarily to major litigation. It has included cases for injuries and deaths from automobile and truck wrecks, premises injuries and deaths, such as the death of a college student from fall from roof of fraternity house, and deaths and injuries resulting from defectively designed roads and highways, electrical utilities, railroad crossings, and defective products of all kinds.
