Criminal Defense
The criminal defense work of Merrida Coxwell has been recognized for its consistency by a listing for over ten consecutive years in the publicationÂ The Best Lawyers in America. Recently, he was listed in the publicationÂ Super Lawyers Â of the Deep South. He is also an AV rated attorney by Martindale-Hubbell. An AV rating is the highest rating an attorney can receive for skill and ethical conduct.
Wrongful Death
Within two months of obtaining her license to practice law Courtney was immersed in complex civil and criminal cases. She wrote a Sentencing Memorandum for a lady facing 4-5 years in Federal Prison. The Sentencing Memorandum helped the client leave Court with one (1) year of house arrest. In a complex civil rights case, she helped secure a $500,000.00 wrongful death settlement for a family who lost their son due to unconstitutional jail practices. Courtneyâ€™s interests are in defending people who are charged with criminal offenses and getting full and fair monetary damages for people who have been injured.
Traffic Violations
Ultimately, it comes down to motorcyclists needing more room to stop and maneuver in the event of a roadway emergency. Motorcycles canâ€™t stop on a dime safely. The riders need plenty of room to stop safely or maneuver around hazards or other drivers in the roadway. Always make sure you give a motorcycle plenty of room, especially prior to a turn or a lane change. It could save somebodyâ€™s life. When in doubt, wait for a clear and safe opening to make a turn. Refrain from speeding or making split second decisions. Itâ€™s always a safe decision to wait for a good opportunity to make a turn.
Misdemeanors
Boating accidents often include capsizing, falling overboard, collision with another vehicle or structure, fire, and sinking or flooding. In addition to motorboat accidents, injuries are quite common as a result of water skiing, jet skiing, fishing, and other kinds of water sports. One of the best ways to avoid a boating accident is to take one of the Coast Guardâ€™s safety courses. Operators and passengers in boats should always observe boating safety rules and courtesies. In Mississippi, it is a misdemeanor crime to operate a boat under the influence of alcoholic beverages.
Murder
When Merrida was a new lawyer, he represented eighteen (18) death penalty clients. Through hard work and dedication, Merrida developed a reputation for honesty, aggressiveness and fairness. He was asked by the Hinds County Circuit Court to defend Byron De La Beckwith, who was charged in the 1964 murder of Medgar Evers. This was a high profile case that became a major movie. Merrida also had successes defending two major alleged drug conspiracies in Federal Court. In both cases, set approximately one year apart, the juries found the defendants not guilty.

Premises Liability
Design and product defects, negligent maintenance, avionics malfunctions, pilot error, air traffic control errors, and engine and flight control failure are all hazards which can cause an airplane crash. Commercial airplane crashes can be truly terrifying for all those involved. All aspects of the case must be thoroughly investigated including in-flight airline injuries, airport premises liability, catastrophic injuries and wrongful deaths. A commercial airplane crash or commercial airplane accident could be the result of any of the following...
Property Damage
Depending on the type and severity of your public transportation accident, you could be facing a short hospital stay to weeks or longer in the intensive care unit. If a public transportation vehicle hit your car, you could also be looking at extensive property damage. During your recovery, you could also be missing work. Depending upon the flexibility and understanding at your place of work, you may or may not have a job after your recover from your injuries. Many people lose their jobs after a car accident, even if they miss only a few days or weeks at a job. You need to understand that you could have medical bills, daily expenses and other costs piling up, with little to no income coming in.

Personal Injury
We all expect to arrive at our destinations safely, while using public transportation. What if bus drivers or train operators are negligent? What if vehicles arenâ€™t being properly maintained and people get hurt? Perhaps, itâ€™s another driver that crashes into the public transit vehicle youâ€™re riding on. Whatâ€™s next? Since public transportation accidents often involve government or other transportation agencies, these cases can quickly become complicated. These cases can often require additional investigative efforts and hardball dealing with larger agencies, insurance companies and their lawyers. If youâ€™ve been injured on public transportation property or while riding on some form of public transportation, you need to contact an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible to get the ball rolling on your case.
