Our Mississippi personal injury attorneys are committed to helping clients navigate the legal system and secure the money they deserve.

“Hiring Sokolove Law was the smartest thing we ever did. Filing the lawsuit was easy because they made it easy. We didn’t have to do anything.”
– John, Firm Client

With no upfront costs or hourly fees, you can pursue compensation without any financial risk. Let us put our decades of experience to work for you.

We Make It EASY

If you have a case, a member of our legal team can discuss your mesothelioma claim from your home or hospital room. We’ll handle the entire legal process on your behalf.

You may not even have to set foot in court. Everything is done in a way that prioritizes your health and recovery.

We Make It FAST

We know the strain mesothelioma can put on your family and your finances. That’s why most of our cases settle out of court — so you can get the results you need as soon as possible.

Many of our past clients have started to receive compensation in as few as 90 days.

We Serve VETERANS

If you’re a U.S. veteran, thank you for your service. We have attorneys on staff who are accredited by the VA and can help you receive all of the benefits you qualify for.

Our Veteran Support Team has served thousands of veterans and would be honored to serve you too.

Types of Mississippi Personal Injury Cases

Personal injury cases involve a wide variety of situations where an individual is harmed due to the actions or negligence of a third party.

Our personal injury attorneys in MS have successfully represented clients facing many different injustices. Find out more about some of the case types we handle.

Mississippi Asbestos Exposure Claims

As a top mesothelioma law firm, Sokolove Law can help asbestos exposure victims find out how they were exposed and pursue compensation from the companies that hid the risks.

Compensation from a mesothelioma lawsuit ranges from $1 Million to $11.4 Million on average, depending on if the case results in a settlement or trial verdict.

Our past Mississippi mesothelioma settlements and verdicts include:

  • $2.18 Million to a Batesville plant worker with pleural mesothelioma
  • $1.49 Million for a U.S. Air Force veteran in Vicksburg
  • $1.37 Million to a laborer and millwright in Batesville
  • $1.62 Million for a Belmont forklift operator with pleural mesothelioma

Over $30 Billion has been set aside in asbestos trust funds for victims of mesothelioma and other asbestos diseases — and you don't have to sue to access this compensation.

If you have mesothelioma, lung cancer, or another asbestos-related disease, call (800) 995-1212 now. Our Mississippi mesothelioma lawyers can fight for your family.

Medical Malpractice & Misdiagnosis in MS

If a health care provider makes a mistake that harms a patient, it may be considered medical malpractice. Each year, around 750,000 Americans die or are permanently disabled due to medical errors, according to Johns Hopkins.

Malpractice cases commonly involve failing to diagnose patients quickly and accurately, which can give conditions time to worsen and delay treatments.

Results we’ve secured for patients and their families include: 

  • $3.5 Million to a patient who received an incorrect diagnosis
  • $2.5 Million for a victim of medical malpractice
  • $3.25 Million to a man who suffered a delayed lung cancer diagnosis
  • $3.1 Million for a patient who was misdiagnosed

Our firm has also secured compensation for victims of surgical malpractice, which can include incorrect operations and injuries suffered during a procedure.

At Sokolove Law, our Mississippi injury lawyers can help you hold negligent health care workers accountable and seek compensation for medical bills and more.

Mississippi Birth Injuries

When a medical professional’s error injures a child before, during, or shortly after birth, families may be able to file a birth injury lawsuit for compensation.

The average payout from a birth injury claim is around $1 Million, depending on your child’s condition. This money can help pay for therapies, home modifications, assistive devices, and more.

Some of our past birth injury settlements and verdicts include: 

  • $9 Million for a family impacted by birth injuries
  • $5 Million to a child with a brachial plexus injury
  • $6 Million for a child with undetected jaundice
  • $7.8 Million to the family of a child with cerebral palsy due to malpractice

We have registered nurses on staff who can listen to your experience and help you determine if a medical mistake may have caused your child’s condition.

Get a free case review now to find out if you may be eligible to pursue birth injury compensation for your child.

Mississippi Disability Insurance Denials

Many insurance providers have a history of wrongfully denying claims, leaving workers without the support they need during a difficult time.

Even if a medical condition qualifies for compensation under your policy, your insurer may still deny the claim — but we’ve helped many families fight back.

Compensation we’ve recovered for clients with denied claims includes: 

  • $1.36 Million to a client with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia
  • $975,000 for a physician whose Unum disability claim was denied
  • $800,000 to a client with a denied long-term disability claim
  • $1.15 Million for a woman with a denied disability claim

If your long-term disability (LTD) claim was wrongfully denied, we may be able to help you file an appeal or take legal action against your insurance company.

At Sokolove Law, our LTD lawyers in Mississippi have the experience and resources needed to get you the benefits you deserve.

Abuse & Neglect in Mississippi Nursing Homes

Tragically, cases of nursing home abuse and neglect are on the rise. If you suspect your loved one isn’t being cared for properly in a residential care facility, you may be able to file a nursing home abuse lawsuit.

Some of our past nursing home abuse settlements include:

  • $2 Million to the family of a woman who passed away from an infection
  • $1.75 Million for the family of a man who died in a fire caused by neglect
  • $1.11 Million to a client who had a heart attack at a care facility
  • $1 Million for a woman whose mother passed away

Compensation from a nursing home abuse lawsuit can help pay for medical bills, assist with funeral expenses, and provide you with the money needed to transfer your loved one to a safer facility.

“With the number of seniors expected to rise over the next decade, this neglect will likely rise unless lawyers can make it financially painful enough for these companies to have to stop.”
– Ricky Leblanc, Managing Attorney at Sokolove Law

Call (800) 995-1212 now to see if our nursing home abuse lawyers in Mississippi can seek justice for your family. It costs nothing to speak with us.

Mississippi Dog Bite Injuries

Dog bites can cause serious physical and emotional harm. These animals can also injure people in other ways, like by jumping up and knocking someone over.

Common injuries from dogs in Mississippi can include:

  • Bruising
  • Emotional trauma
  • Fractures and broken bones
  • Infections
  • Nerve damage
  • Puncture wounds
  • Scarring
  • Tendon or ligament damage
  • Death

A dog bite lawsuit can allow you to access much-needed compensation after an unexpected injury. This money is often awarded through the dog owner's homeowners or renters insurance policy.

Car & Truck Accidents in MS

Thousands of car accidents take place throughout Mississippi each year. These crashes can result in serious injuries, property damage, and even death.

When an accident involves a truck or commercial vehicle, the damage may be more severe due to the size and weight of these vehicles.

Victims of an auto accident may be pressured into accepting low offers from an insurance company — but our car crash attorneys can fight to get you the results you need.

Slip & Fall Accidents in Mississippi

Slip and fall accidents can happen to anyone. Wet floors, broken stairs, uneven flooring, and cluttered walkways can all lead to unexpected injury.

When public places like parking lots, businesses, or even the outside of someone’s home aren’t properly maintained, they can become dangerous and put you at risk.

If you’re injured by slipping and falling in a public space, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit and pursue compensation.

Workplace Injuries & Workers Comp in Mississippi

Workplace injuries or illnesses can have a significant impact on an individual’s health and their ability to earn an income. In Mississippi, employees are usually entitled to workers' compensation benefits.

However, your employer’s insurance company may try to deny your claim. They could also downplay your injury in an attempt to avoid paying what you’re owed.

In one case, we secured $500,000 for a nurse who dislocated her ankle while trying to prevent a patient from falling.

Workers’ compensation covers anything from a strained muscle to chemical poisoning or a traumatic brain injury.

At Sokolove Law, our personal injury lawyers in MS have decades of experience seeking justice for victims who have been injured through no fault of their own.
