Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a divorce high-conflict?
High-conflict divorces often involve intense disputes over child custody, large assets, allegations of misconduct, domestic issues, or one spouse who refuses to negotiate in good faith. These cases require experienced attorneys who can handle both negotiation and litigation effectively.
How do you handle high-conflict custody cases?
We focus on protecting your parental rights while gathering strong evidence. We work strategically to resolve issues through negotiation when possible, but we are fully prepared to advocate aggressively for you in court when litigation becomes necessary.

Yes. Mississippi courts prioritize the best interest of the child above all else. We help present clear evidence of stability, parenting ability, and any legitimate concerns about the other parent in a professional and effective manner.
