Jackson Personal Injury Attorneys

Serving Hinds, Madison & Rankin County clients with Trusted Personal Injury and Criminal Defense Representation 

Coxwell & Associates serves clients in the two major areas of personal injury and criminal defense. We have been serving the needs of Mississippians since 1980 and have built a history of success. Our team is passionate about providing the highest quality of legal representation and service available. Our practice is not merely a business but a lifelong commitment to helping those in our community resolve their legal problems. We consider it a privilege to have represented individuals and families in our area for well over 40 years. 

We focus our practice in the above-limited areas to provide more highly skilled service to you. For example, family doctors address general medical conditions while cardiologists address serious issues involving your heart. Both are doctors, but they have different professional concentrations. At our firm, Attorney Merrida Coxwell has limited their areas of practice to fine-tune their skills within the civil and criminal frameworks in which we operate. We believe this approach better equips us to help you and serve your needs. 

Need help from Jackson personal injury or criminal defense attorneys? Our team is ready to guide you through your case with clarity, strategy, and proven experience. Call Coxwell & Associates today at (601) 265-7766 or contact us online to discuss your situation and take the first step toward protecting your rights.

Dear Visitors to the Coxwell & Associates, PLLC, website:

I want to thank you for clicking and visiting this page. We have always been interested in helping people who are less fortunate. For 11 years we hosted a social event at Christmas to collect toys for children. Covid put that on the back burner. We hope to start the social event again to collect toys. We have seen how the economy has devastated families and individuals. We have decided to help Stewpot. Stewpot has been in Jackson for decades and may be one of the most recognized charities. This organization serves food to “people who are hungry, offers shelter, clothing, mentioning, care and concern.” Our efforts will be in the collection of clothing for the Stewpot Clothing Closet. Of course, Stewpot also takes donations of food. If you can provide any clothing, please let us know. We have provided a list of the clothing needed by Stewpot. And please, gently used items of clothing. If you would prefer to make a cash donation, you do that online. “If we all do a little something, everything will get done.” - Merrida “Buddy” Coxwell
