Pursuing Just Compensation After Serious Accidents


When you incur a significant injury due to another party’s negligence, you need representation that has the skill and capability to achieve justice. At Herring Chapman, PA, our litigation experience equips us to successfully handle serious personal injury cases, working to protect the interests of our clients and helping them find some semblance of normalcy after the accident.

We are aware of the profound pain and loss that an accident can cause, and we zealously advocate on your behalf. Under law, the only restitution that is allowed for these accidents is monetary award.

It also provides damages that can cover medical bills, rehabilitation expenses, and the pain you have experienced.

Navigating The Complexities Of Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice is a complex subsection of personal injury law. It is much more difficult to identify and prove a medical malpractice suit than a typical motor vehicle accident or premises liability case. Because of this, medical malpractice cases require a significant amount of experience and resources that many law firms are unwilling to commit.


Herring Chapman, PA, provides thorough legal representation for Mississippi residents facing complex medical malpractice cases. Our accomplished trial lawyers can evaluate your case and provide an honest evaluation of your best chances for success.


The Elements Of A Medical Malpractice Case

You cannot claim medical malpractice due to a simple medical error or unsuccessful surgery. Malpractice suits ultimately stem from a medical provider’s negligence. Claims can be filed against any individual who works within the medical profession, including physicians, surgeons, nurses, lab technicians, dentists and pharmacists.


To constitute as medical malpractice, Herring Chapman, PA, must be able to prove:

  • Your medical provider owed you a duty
  • Your provider violated their duty
  • That violation harmed your health

Our skilled personal injury attorneys understand the many complicating factors involved in a medical malpractice suit. We will work with you to understand the circumstances surrounding your injury to evaluate whether you have a medical malpractice suit or not. Once your case validity is established, our dedicated legal team will aggressively protect your claim in or out of court.


We also help families file a wrongful death claim if a medical provider’s negligence leads to an early death.


In-Depth Research To Uphold Your Claim

Medical malpractice suits can be lengthy and involve in-depth case research. We regularly rely upon the counsel of outside professionals, such as other medical providers and forensic experts, to establish fault and prove the extent of your injuries.


Our medical malpractice clients regularly face life-long injuries. These can severely impact your quality of life and ability to earn a living. We will ensure that all factors are thoroughly evaluated to pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.

Assisting Families After A Wrongful Death

If you lose a family member in a deadly accident, you may face financial concerns in addition to your emotional loss. Herring Chapman, PA, understands how overwhelming a loved one’s death can be. While no amount of money can replace their life, our attorneys can help you pursue compensation to protect your family’s financial future. A team of skilled personal injury lawyers, we can evaluate your case, explain your legal rights and pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.


Understanding Your Legal Rights

If another party’s negligence led to your loved one’s death, you may have a right to financial compensation. We understand how to determine the party at-fault and uncover supporting evidence to prove your case. Once fault is established, we may be able to recover compensation for:

  • Funeral expenses
  • Medical expenses
  • Property loss
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of companionship
  • Loss of future income

Herring Chapman, PA, is fully willing to represent clients in catastrophic and complicated cases that other firms may be reluctant to take on. Depending upon the complexity of your case, we may partner with medical providers, accident reconstructionists and forensic experts to support your claim.


Representing Parents After The Loss Of A Child

When a child passes, it can be even more difficult to determine a settlement. Our legal team carefully analyzes the situation at hand to predict their future earning potential and other intangibles based on very limited information. Our firm has provided personal injury representation since 1998. We have the experience and knowledge necessary to determine a fair settlement and strongly protect your interests.

Establishing A Strong Premises Liability Claim

Property owners and residents have a responsibility to keep their property free from anticipated dangers. However, their degree of responsibility greatly varies by situation and the persons involved.


If you are injured on commercial or residential property due to the owner’s negligence, you may be able to claim compensation after your accident. Herring Chapman, PA, will carefully investigate your case to determine whether you have a claim. If you have a premises liability claim under Mississippi law, our experienced trial attorneys can develop a strong case strategy to protect your interests either in or out of court.


Understanding The Injured Party’s Classification

When an individual is injured on another party’s property, Mississippi law labels them as an invitee, licensee or trespasser. Designation is determined as follows:

  • An invitee is expressly invited onto the premises such as a store customer.
  • A licensee is on the property as a social guest, for their own benefit or pleasure.
  • A trespasser is not invited onto the property, and the owner does not anticipate their presence. This could be an intruder or an individual who enters an off-limits location.

The duty a property owner owes an injured individual differs depending upon their classification. A property owner must take an invitee’s safety into consideration, but is not held to the same standard with a trespasser. Children are given special consideration in this matter.


Crafting A Results-Oriented Case Strategy

After we determine whether you were an invitee, licensee or trespasser, we can evaluate the rest of your accident to develop a strong case. Our results-oriented attorneys will work to establish that the property owner owed you a duty of care to protect your health and failed to do so. This can apply to a number of scenarios, including:


  • Slipping and falling on water or ice
  • Tripping and falling on debris
  • Assault due to negligent security measures
  • A loved one’s death after a serious accident

Our firm has represented personal injury victims since 1998. We know the intricacies of Mississippi’s premises liability law and will evaluate your case from all angles to develop a case strategy.


While we are skilled negotiators, our litigation attorneys are first and foremost trial lawyers. We can represent clients in state and federal court, as well as the court of appeals. Herring Chapman, PA, can guide you through the complex legal process and uphold your rights.
