GULF COAST Law blog

Congratulations to The Shed, Stopher Haug & the entire legal team at Haug & Farrar for a hard fought trial and favorable jury verdict in a Jackson County, MS eminent domain case. The government can take your land but they must pay fair value for it.

First, I don’t advocate that anyone rack up thousands of dollars in medical treatment if they are not hurt in a car accident. This blog is intended for those who have been in a serious car accident and are truly injured.

In Mississippi, if you are injured in a car accident involving an uninsured or underinsured motorist, there are special laws that apply to your injury claim. If you have uninsured motorist insurance (“UM”) then you can collect from your uninsured motorist policy.

Recently we successfully settled a case where the uninsured motorist carrier originally denied an uninsured motorist claim relating to a car wreck. The facts of the case were that an 18 year old was driving his mother’s vehicle and was hit by a driver that then ran from the scene.

Several factors will determine the value of your Mississippi Workers’ Compensation Injury. This article will cover “scheduled member injuries”. Scheduled member injuries in Mississippi Workers’ Compensation include hands, feet, legs, arms, and other body parts excluding back and neck injuries.
