You may wonder where the money will come from to pay the additional expenses.

MISSISSIPPI FAULT LAWS
The person who causes an accident is considered “at fault”. Mississippi is an at-fault car accident state. This law seems simple, but Mississippi has another law that can change the amount of money you may receive in a case.
If you have some responsibility for what happened, your compensation will decrease. The court figures the amount using the “Comparative Negligence” rule. It calculates what percentage of fault belongs to you and deducts that percentage from your compensation.
If a court finds that you were 30 percent responsible for the accident, then your compensation will go down by 30 percent.
Pepper & Odom will help you figure everything out and determine the best course of action to get you the most money you deserve.
HOW TO DEAL WITH INSURANCE ADJUSTERS
The expenses keep piling up after you are in a car accident in Mississippi or in Alabama. The last thing you need to worry about is being harassed by insurance adjusters. They will try to pay you as little as possible on your damages. Remember the following tips when dealing with insurance adjusters:
- Remain calm and write down details.
- Speak to us before speaking to an insurance adjuster.
- Don't consent to recorded converstations.
- Don't take the first offer that they submit to you.
- Contact Pepper & Odom for consultation.
