I had the pleasure of working with Coast Title Company for my recent home purchase, and I could not be more impressed with their professionalism and efficiency. From start to finish, their team was exceptional in every way. First and foremost, communication was flawless. They promptly responded to all my inquiries, explaining every step of the process in a way that was clear and easy to understand. The closing was scheduled on time, and I was kept informed of any updates or required documents well in advance, which made the entire process stress-free. On the day of closing, everything was organized perfectly. The staff was friendly and welcoming, making sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire meeting. They took the time to walk me through the closing documents, answered all my questions, and ensured that I understood every detail before I signed anything. Tori was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process.

Working with the team at Coast Title was wonderful. As a REALTOR®, my clients rely heavily on my advice to guide them through a seamless transition between the buyer and the seller. Nicole was great, as was her team, and I highly recommend using Coast Title Company as a local professional for your real estate needs.

I would heartily recommend Jonathan Franco as an attorney. Working with Jonathan, my wife and I found him to be thorough and tenacious, both important qualities in an attorney. Jonathan took point in our case that had languished in the system, and was successful in pushing it to resolution, and a favorable one at that. We were so pleased that, if we find ourselves in need of a legal advocate in the future, Jonathan Franco is the obvious choice for us.

I have worked in the legal field and been exposed to some of best legal minds in the south. I didn't know who to call in Mississippi after a workplace accident and called Barlow after a brief online search. Barlow impressed me and earned my respect. He will be my first call if I am ever in a situation needing legal representation again. He takes his time to personally speak with his clients for every question, aggressively goes after large corporations, and continually provided updates on the case status. I was not another number or just a future paycheck. Top tier lawyer that works to earn your trust and appreciates the gravity of how his work changes his client's lives.

I have had several lawyers over the years, and this was by far my best experience! HIGHLY recommend Barlow&Goff. Barlow was aggressive, down to earth, and compassionate. He took the time to personally return my calls, explain each step of the process, and refused the lowball compensation offers. I hope I never need to call him again, but he will be my first call if I ever do! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

He also wanted to charge me $750 for a simple Will , I found another lawyer , who is very responsive and charged me only $250. He never got back to me, so he lied and left me hanging!!

I generally don’t write reviews, for anything, but I was fully prepared to deal with attorney representation that was impersonal, cold and indifferent. Mr. Haug, Christopher, was anything but. I always felt like he put the needs of me and my family above all else. I got honest and constructive counsel, not just told what I wanted to hear so I could be temporarily appeased. I know that this was key to the outcome of my case- feeling like I had open and rational communication with my attorney. I’d recommend him to anyone in need of a Family Law Attorney.

First, she did not represent me in "good faith". We all know what is said about Karma and I will not elaborate on that here. I would DEFINITELY NOT recommend her services to anyone because she really DOES NOT care about or has any empathy for the clients she represents and what they are going through. She is one of the many reasons why most lawyers HAVE a bad reputation and cannot be TRUSTED to represent their clients in "good faith". Furthermore, most people gravitate towards a "calling" and exercise great passion for the professional career path they have chosen; it is clear to me that Mrs. Tynes' practice of law is that of just another "job". Lastly, it is NOT just another job when people's lives are being turned upside down and changed forever.

I would call privately and they would answer but as soon as they new it was me they were quick to rush me off the phone nothing was done to keep his side of the deal but was quick to befriend the opposing attorney and soon after let my case go.

For 3 and a half years this man has led us along while not doing anything for us. Our house is falling down and he gave us some bull crap just give me $5000.00 dollars and I'll take care of you. That was almost 4 years ago. He was in with another lawyer at the time. If something doesn't happen immediately I will list her name as well!

      For ongoing services, businesses might pay a monthly fee for a set number of hours or services.

    Request a detailed fee agreement outlining all potential costs.
    Discuss any additional expenses that may arise during the case.
  • Negotiating Fees:
