in Blog Posts, Giselle Rasberry, Workers Compensation

There are thousands of workplace injuries every year, many of them serious. Each job comes with its own individual hazards and risks. It is as much the employer’s responsibility to ensure proper safety and health procedures are followed as it is the employees. The most common accidents in the workplace include: Slips, trips, and falls: Whether you work in a shop, office, or factory, you’re likely to encounter slippery surfaces at some point. For builders who rely on ladders and other platforms, falling from height can be very dangerous. Strained muscles: Common workplace injury for those who regularly lift heavy items. Strained...

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog Posts, Divorce

The first step in the process to get a divorce in Mississippi for an uncontested divorce, or one that is agreed upon by the parties, is to determine what will happen to all of the debts and assets of the parties and, if kids are involved, the custodial situation and child support obligations. Once these matters are determined, you and your spouse will file a joint petition for divorce and an agreed upon property settlement agreement, sometimes also called a marital dissolution agreement, which will set out who gets what property, who is responsible for each marital debt and who...

Sexual Abuse By a Southern Baptist Church Member

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog Posts, Brian K. Herrington, Southern Baptist Church Abuse

Like the Catholic Church, the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) has disclosed that, for years, pastors and other church leaders have committed horrible abuses against church members. The SBC and local Baptist churches have covered up these abuses. They’ve protected the abusers while doing nothing for the victims. A bombshell report released by the SBC Executive Committee states that the SBC’s “main concern was avoiding potential liability for the SBC.” The SBC also revealed a 205-page document listing various details about hundreds of abuse cases that occurred throughout the country. BACKGROUND For decades, abuse victims and other concerned individuals contacted the SBC to report child...

What am I entitled to under Mississippi Workers’ Compensation Law?

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog Posts, Caroline Boyd, Workers Compensation

Under Mississippi Workers’ Compensation Law, businesses that have five or more employees are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance coverage. What does that mean to the average worker who is employed by these businesses? As a general rule, if you are injured while working or as a result of a hazard of the job (whether you are on the clock or not)– your injury should be covered by your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance. There are some exceptions to this rule, but we will save that topic for a future blog post. Let’s talk about what you are entitled to when...

What to do after injured at work

Posted by chhabragibbs

in Blog Posts, Workers Compensation

In Mississippi roughly twelve thousand (12,000) people are injured at work every year. These injuries fall under the purview of the Mississippi Workers’ Compensation Commission, which apply the laws of the Mississippi Workers’ Compensation Act to the particular facts of the injured person’s claim. So, what do you do if you are one of those 12,000? Your employer should have a policy for dealing with workplace injuries, but you should always make sure to inform your direct supervisor and/or H.R. about the injury. Thereafter, you should fill out and sign a “First Report of Injury” form, which lets the Commission know...
