Why You Should Never Settle With the Insurance Adjuster

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog Posts, Helpful Information, Personal Injury

Personal Injury cases in Mississippi are settled everyday with no lawyer involvement between an injured party and their assigned insurance adjuster. We see people quickly signing the insurance adjuster’s paperwork every day instead of getting free legal advice first before accepting a quick offer. Some clients may be thinking that an Injury lawyer will take most of the money, or probably can’t get more for you after fees. Some clients don’t want to have to go to court, or have anxiety and are too nervous, or just don’t have time to be messing with Injury lawyers and the court system. Some...

Trampoline Parks Rising In Popularity and Rising In Injuries On a typical weekend in Mississippi, the trampoline parks here are at a large capacity with hundreds of kids and adults bouncing, jumping, and playing. Trampoline parks have now become a billion dollar industry. But, in the past several years in the United States, many people have developed severe injuries from these trampoline parks, even death. The numbers could be even higher but many injured people are forced into arbitration with those trampoline parks and ordered to sign confidentiality agreements that stop them from telling their story. In a recent video from a...

Can I Get a Copy of My Incident Report? You probably would not expect to hear “No” to that question, but that is what Wal-Mart and other big box retailers will tell you when they have you complete an incident report at their store after you fall or get hurt. Don’t accept No for answer. Demand a copy. Or better yet, snap a photo of the completed form before you turn it in. You can also take a photo of the manager taking report, her name tag, the office you are completing report in and the spill that caused the fall. Keep your...

What should I do if I’m in a hit and run car accident in Mississippi? First, do not chase them. Let me say that again. Do not chase the person you were in a hit and run car wreck with. People do this because they have a sense of justice. I understand that, but chasing someone could get you hurt...

Do lawyers really act like Saul?

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog Posts, Helpful Information, Personal Injury, Rogen K. Chhabra, Workers Compensation

Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul have become pop culture phenomenon’s on Netflix. One of the characters is the sleazy money hungry lawyer called Saul. He wears the car salesman suit and fits the obnoxious mold that we expect attorneys to have. He even has this endearing side and line of ethics that he will not cross, although he always tries to figure out a way to get what he wants without getting himself in trouble. As a lawyer, I can appreciate why people have stereotyped us, and why the show portrays Saul that way. The purpose of this blog is...

Everyone Needs Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Ashley Hendricks Duck, Blog Posts, Motor Vehicle Accidents, Personal Injury

Mississippi law requires all drivers to maintain minimum liability insurance limits on the vehicles they drive. This covers you if you are at fault and cause someone else to have a personal injury in a car accident or 18 wheeler wreck. However, not everyone gets liability insurance as the law requires. Roughly 25% of Mississippi drivers are uninsured. If you are involved in a motor vehicle accident with someone who doesn’t have car insurance in Mississippi, you could be in for a major headache. You could be on the hook for your own medical bills and repair costs. You are...

Slip and Falls and Premises Liability

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog Posts, Darryl M. Gibbs, Personal Injury, Premises Liability, Slip and Fall Accident

Slip and falls are the second most likely cause of injury in America, but one of the most misunderstood. Whether it be work place injuries or premises liability at a place unrelated to your Mississippi work or business slip and falls are serious injuries and every measure should be taken to prevent them. For a work related fall, the injured worker simply needs to prove they fell while on the job. But for a claim where you fall at a business or someone else's property, it can be a lot more complicated. For a premises liability claim, you would need to prove...
