• Chinn & Associates is pleased to announce that Mark Chinn has been selected again for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America in Family Law.
• Chad King and Keith Isbell recently attended an all day continuing education program to maintain their standing as two of only approximately 200 nationally certified paralegals in Mississippi. We are proud of them.
• We are pleased to announce the return of Judy Smith from her well deserved month long sabbatical. Judy was under strict orders not to talk with us during her time off so we don’t know what she did but we are hoping she took that much coveted trip to the mountains.
• Patricia Williams will be taking the first two weeks of November off to go to the beach. She will not be on a mountain, however, so we can reach her if we need to. These vacations are an important part of the Chinn & Associates health program. Our team approach allows us to “sub players in and out” while maintaining the same quality service.
