Auto Accidents – No driver can truly prepare themselves for an auto collision. But thousands of car accident victims along the Gulf Coast have trusted our experienced representation when it does happen. Turn to our Gulfport trial lawyers to navigate any claims you may have and protect your rights following a motor vehicle crash.

Truck Accidents – Collisions with 18-wheelers can be complex and difficult, as several parties could be liable for your injuries and losses. But we have the legal expertise to go after them and get clients full compensation at trial and at the settlement table. Let us help you pursue full compensation from all possible sources.

Premises Liability – Property owners and managers have a responsibility to look out for and fix hazardous conditions, from loose carpets to wet floors to broken stairs. If you were hurt in a slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall at a store, business, apartment building, or public space, turn to us to manage any injury claims you may have.

Medical Errors and Pharmacist Negligence – Patients can suffer greatly or even die if a surgeon, nurse, or other healthcare provider is careless with their work. The same goes for pharmacists who provide the wrong medication, improper instructions, or incorrect dosage amounts. With a medical malpractice lawyer by your side, we’ll make them pay for their mistake.

Criminal Defense – Whether it’s a third-offense DUI or you’ve been accused of murder, theft, or aggravated assault, our lawyers are tenacious in fighting for and preserving your legal rights. We start building a trial-ready case for you from the beginning and work tirelessly for you through the end of your case.

Workers’ Compensation – Serious, life-altering injuries can happen to employees at an oil refinery, naval shipyard, or industrial setting. We have a deep understanding of the process and the law for workman’s compensation, appealing denied claims, on-the-job accidents due to third-party negligence, and other workplace injury matters.
