The attorneys at Coxwell & Associates treat the practice of law as their career, not a job. Each attorney is totally dedicated to helping our clients receive the best possible legal representation. We are not a general practice law firm. Instead, we are attorneys who focus our energy, intelligence, and interests in limited areas of the law in order to be better equipped to help our clients.

Personal Injury Representation

Four of our attorneys concentrate on serious personal injury claims, including:

• Auto accidents
• Truck accidents
• Prescription drug litigation
• Medical malpractice
• Nursing home abuse
• Defective products

Our attorneys have obtained verdicts of several million dollars and one verdict totaled over $144 million against Ford Motor Company in a wrongful death case.

The attorneys at Coxwell & Associates also examine and accept some Federal Civil Rights cases. In one such case, our attorneys received a $2.1 million verdict against the city of Jackson after law enforcement officers wrongfully killed a young man during his arrest for petty misdemeanors.

Each person who comes to Coxwell & Associates with a legal problem is treated with respect and kindness. The personal injury attorneys at Coxwell & Associates are dedicated to obtaining fair and reasonable compensation for each of their clients.

Financial Fraud and Bankruptcy Representation

Our lawyers also handle financial fraud cases on behalf of consumers and small businesses. Over the course of the past 12 years, we have obtained millions of dollars in settlements and debt forgiveness on behalf of defrauded consumers.

Frank Coxwell is the attorney in our group who handles consumer bankruptcy, Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 and focuses on other consumer protection issues such as:

• Predatory lending
• Predatory mortgage servicing
• Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
• Truth and Lending Violations

Frank is a frequent speaker and lecturer on consumer bankruptcy and litigation in bankruptcy. He trains Mississippi attorneys in bankruptcy and litigation issues.

Criminal Defense Representation

Our attorneys have developed a reputation throughout the state of Mississippi for their vigorous defense of people charged with criminal offenses. Managing Partner Merrida Coxwell is a veteran of many death penalty cases and other highly publicized cases. He has represented a past Mississippi Supreme Court Justice and the Mayor of Jackson in criminal defense matters.

Protecting your constitutional and statutory rights is our highest concern. No case is too small or too big when it comes to a criminal charge.
