Frequently asked questions

How do I find an SCRA lawyer in Mississippi?

Free first: the installation legal assistance office, and the Department of Justice for SCRA complaints. For a private lawyer, this page lists every attorney and firm a Mississippi court named as counsel in a published decision citing the Act (2 of 3 decisions name counsel, June 27, 2006 to November 13, 2015, across 2 courts). Check bar standing and ask what SCRA matters they have handled since; a listing is a court record, not a recommendation.

Can I bring an SCRA claim myself in Mississippi?

Yes. 50 U.S.C. § 4042 gives a private right of action with damages and attorney's fees, and 0 of the Mississippi decisions here involved a party without a lawyer. Fee-shifting is why SCRA plaintiffs' lawyers often take strong cases on contingency.
