About Chinn & Associates, PC

Our family law firm is focused on empowering people in Mississippi to lead the lives that they deserve to lead. We help families navigate through family law issues.

We know that many of our clients are in despair over their family lives and have probably never been in a lawyer’s office before. At Chinn & Associates, our approach is designed to make clients feel as comfortable as possible during these difficult circumstances. We strive to make them feel as though they have protection and a safe haven in our office.

The initial client interview is conducted by Mark Chinn, our founder and lead attorney. The purpose of the initial interview is to make the client feel comfortable, to determine the problem, obtain necessary information, and establish a mission or goals for their representation.

Mark Chinn conducts a case analysis to determine the facts, the law, the strengths and weaknesses of the case, and the plan of action. It is at this stage that initial decisions are made regarding the investigation and legal research necessary to accomplish the mission.

As a Jackson divorce attorney with 40 years of experience, Mark Chinn knows that any successful venture must have a mission and all actions of the firm must be taken with the end result in mind.

The Chinn & Associates team has been carefully and painstakingly assembled and trained as a result of Mark Chinn’s goal to deliver unparalleled service to people who are going through what many believe to be the worst personal experience in life: divorce. The Chinn & Associates team delivers specialized service at a fixed price, while making the client feel that their problem is being handled by a family of friends that care a great deal about them.

Hiring Mark made a difficult situation bearable. He was truly top notch to work with. I needed help and I needed the legal matters resolved quickly. Mark made sure that happened. Within a matter of weeks we have resolved the issues and I can breathe again. Mark was honest, gave clear direction and advice, and accomplished things QUICKLY. I would most certainly recommend him to anyone in need. I also appreciated his fee based pricing. I knew going into it exactly how much I would be spending, which alleviated a lot of stress.

Mark and Janeah both fought hard to help me through a difficult time. Knowledge and experience both count, and I am thankful for both of them! I did not have to go to court, which I was thankful for. Would recommend Mark and his team for anyone going through a divorce.

I cannot say enough about Mark, Janeah, and the entire firm! I do not live in Mississippi and had a very complex case. I appreciated being able to pay them to do a job, and they do more than simply deliver exceptional results. They fight for you and you can truly trust they have you’re best interests, as well as my children, at heart. I hope you never need their services, but I personally would recommend no other firm. Thank you for what you did for my girls.

Always felt like Mark and his team were doing everything they could for me. It was not an easy case and they kept me up to date on all matters and didn't make any promises. Delivered the information and facts in the best way possible. Would recommend to anyone to searching for a lawyer.

I hired Mark 16 years ago for a complex divorce. Marks extensive knowledge and plan of action led to an amazing win both financially & personally… his caring attitude & professional Representation influenced my son to become an attorney- he too wanted to affect peoples lives in such a positive manner… Recently I had to rehire Mark to represent me in a request for alimony modification by my ex-husband. Marks preparedness was unmatched by the opposition and we once again won big…no modification, pay past due with interest, and attorney fees…Mark is the best at what he does!

I recently associated Mark to take over the litigation of a somewhat complex modification of alimony case. The case involved voluminous financial documents and several moving parts, with a seasoned trial lawyer on the other side. Mark and his associate, Janeah Kerr, did not miss a beat. They reviewed every bit of evidence in a short period of time and put together a succinct and impressive trial strategy that Mark executed to perfection. I worked with Mark years ago but had forgotten what a skillful trial attorney he truly is. Our client won the modification action and her countersuit for contempt, plus attorney fees.

I interviewed several attorneys before I met Mark Chinn. His intelligence, honesty, and calm demeanor convinced me that he was the right attorney for my case. Mark listened to my concerns and made me feel that he valued my opinions. He conveys tremendous empathy and reassurance while at the same time being very realistic and willing to explain and answer questions. He has a calming influence that reduces stress and gives his clients confidence that they and their family are a high priority for him. He earned my gratitude and respect and I recommend him without reservation.

A friend of mine, who is an attorney, recommended Mark at the beginning of a rather messy divorce. I am glad that I listened to her and hired him. Mark and his associate Janeah were compassionate and responsive throughout the entire process. Highly recommend.

Janeah and Mark helped me along the course of a rocky road. They utilized their many years of combined experience to help me come out with the best outcome for a hard battle. I could not recommend their help enough.

We are glad to see this review. Nothing could make all of our work more worthwhile than seeing a client emerge from a custody battle with the heartfelt feeling they got a good result for themselves and their children!

Did an excellent job handling my case. He got me exactly the result I was hoping for. Mark has a fantastic reputation as the best family law attorney in Jackson and having him on my side gave me a great deal of peace of mind. He was very confident in all of his decisions. I was very impressed with the way this case played out for me and I could not have hoped for a better result.
