Lafayette County Family Law & Divorce Attorney

Dedicated & Experienced Family Law Support for Lafayette County, MS

Family law matters can present significant challenges, often marking a profound period of transition in one's life. At Chinn & Associates, PC, we provide unwavering support and knowledgeable guidance to individuals and families throughout Lafayette County as they address intricate legal processes.

Our firm offers extensive assistance across a spectrum of family law areas, including:

  • Contested Divorce. Contested divorces arise when spouses disagree on key issues. We provide strong representation and prepare thoroughly for court to secure a favorable outcome. 
  • Uncontested Divorce. In uncontested divorces, both spouses agree on all terms. We assist in drafting settlement agreements that accurately reflect your decisions. 
  • Prenuptial & Postnuptial Agreements. We help clients draft clear, legally sound agreements that reflect their intentions and comply with Mississippi law. 
  • Property Division. Mississippi divides marital property equitably, though not always equally. We protect your financial interests by ensuring assets and debts are properly inventoried and fairly divided. 
  • Alimony (Spousal Support). We work to ensure spousal support arrangements are fair and reflect both parties' circumstances, promoting financial stability. 
  • Mediation.  We guide clients through mediation, ensuring their goals and perspectives are clearly represented and considered. 
  • Child Custody. Child custody is often the most sensitive aspect of family law. We focus on creating parenting plans that support children’s stability and relationships with both parents. We also handle complex cases like international disputes or allegations of abduction.

    “I highly recommend Attorney Mark Chinn”

    I highly recommend Attorney Mark Chinn. He’s all about lessening the impact on the family members. I had a very contentious divorce, and he walked me through every step of the way. Glad I followed his advice. And he’s not the most expensive I found him very reasonable, considering the time it took to complete.

    “I truly appreciate it”
    I just wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for your generosity in sharing your CLE materials with me. Your insights and expertise have long been an inspiration, not just in Mississippi family law but on the national stage as well. Your leadership in value billing has truly shaped the way family law attorneys approach their practice, and I deeply respect the impact you've had on our profession. Beyond your professional accomplishments, I've always admired the incredible successes of your family. Watching your daughters thrive in their own careers and families over the years has been a joy. It must have been an especially proud moment to present a CLE alongside Carly what a remarkable testament to your influence both as a lawyer and as a father. It has been an honor to know you and call you a friend over the years. Thank you again for your kindness and generosity. I truly appreciate it...and wish continued success to you!
