About Chinn & Associates, PC

Our family law firm is focused on empowering people in Mississippi to lead the lives that they deserve to lead. We help families navigate through family law issues.

We know that many of our clients are in despair over their family lives and have probably never been in a lawyer’s office before. At Chinn & Associates, our approach is designed to make clients feel as comfortable as possible during these difficult circumstances. We strive to make them feel as though they have protection and a safe haven in our office.

The initial client interview is conducted by Mark Chinn, our founder and lead attorney. The purpose of the initial interview is to make the client feel comfortable, to determine the problem, obtain necessary information, and establish a mission or goals for their representation.

Mark Chinn conducts a case analysis to determine the facts, the law, the strengths and weaknesses of the case, and the plan of action. It is at this stage that initial decisions are made regarding the investigation and legal research necessary to accomplish the mission.

As a Jackson divorce attorney with 40 years of experience, Mark Chinn knows that any successful venture must have a mission and all actions of the firm must be taken with the end result in mind.

The Chinn & Associates team has been carefully and painstakingly assembled and trained as a result of Mark Chinn’s goal to deliver unparalleled service to people who are going through what many believe to be the worst personal experience in life: divorce. The Chinn & Associates team delivers specialized service at a fixed price, while making the client feel that their problem is being handled by a family of friends that care a great deal about them.

Hired Attorney Mark A. Chinn

Mark represented me during my divorce, and I could not be more pleased. Throughout the lengthy process of our case, he was empathetic, meticulous, and matter of fact. He has years of experience and accolades, and he exudes confidence. He's great at what he does, and he knows it. He has all of the attributes someone is looking for when trying to find a good lawyer. He kept me current as to what was going on with our case, what was happening with the opposing counsel, and still checks in on me. He is passionate about what he does and does it extremely well. As a man seeking custody of my children, I was worried about the outcome. It was a tough time, but Mark kept reassuring me about myself and my case, and he was right. He got an extraordinary custody result without even having to go to trial. I truly couldn't be more pleased with Mark and his associate, Janeah, and I can't recommend them enough.

I highly recommend Mark. He brings decades of experience and highly credible counsel. He was a steady voice of reason during an emotional time for my family. He was "on it," staying close and communicating frequently. He partnered with my family to the very end of what turned out to be a longer than expected divorce process. He fought for us, resulting in a miracle custody case. The outcome was worth the wait. I can't recommend him highly enough.

My son hired Mark to represent him in a divorce which primarily centered around obtaining custody of his young children. I had recommended Mark because I knew that he drew from a deep well of experience in family law. Mark met our high expectations completely. He was responsive, always well prepared and knew how to handle the anxiety that accompanies divorce, particularly one with custody issues. Mark’s associate Janeah Kerr added additional strength to the team. The process went on far longer than anyone expected, but Mark and Janeah helped us remain calm and patient. All matters were ultimately settled to our complete satisfaction without the necessity of a painful trial. We are deeply grateful and cannot recommend Chinn & Associates more highly.

Hired Attorney Mark A. Chinn

I found Mark Chinn & Associates during the most desperate time of my life. While I was suffering from difficult health issues, I was unexpectedly served with divorce papers after years of separation. I live out of state and had no idea how I would find representation or if anyone would be willing to accept my case. Mark graciously agreed to represent me for a flat rate fee. My divorce has been complex, involving many documents & research; much more than any of us expected. This man has the most integrity, determination and compassion of any professional I have ever encountered. Janeah & Wendy have provided the utmost support, guidance, patience & understanding than I could have imagined. Their concern for my well being has felt most sincere, genuine and greatly appreciated. I could not have gotten through this arduous process without them. I trust Mark, Janeah & Wendy with my most personal and private aspects of my life. My family and I are forever grateful.

Words are beyond what I can say. I was in a bad litigation situation not well represented and found myself stuck, so I thought until God lead me to Attorney Chinn’s office. Attorney Chinn not only was extremely professional, compassionate, attentive etc. but is a God fearing man. Despite his busy schedule as an Attorney, he made sure to personally keep me abreast and made sure to explain the process with an extremely well established plan. He involved me in every decision made and went above and beyond his call of duty. Attorney Chinn gave me sound advice before and after court which helped me gain confidence and gave me a peace of mind. Attorney Chinn even checked on me and my kids to make sure that we were ok after the ruling. God used Attorney Chinn to kindly and softly shut the mouths of lions that attempted to destroy me. My review is by far for publicity. It is to truly share my experience and testimony of what God has accomplished in my life (Victory). Truly the BEST.

Excellent representation and guidance through a very difficult time. I highly recommend Mark and his team. He always gave sound advice that was very reasonable and responded immediately and effectively to the many crisis issues that came up. He's also not going to nickel and dime you to death. Very reasonable up front fee that is know and transparent before any agreement is entered upon. And even though my divorce is final, I know that I can reach out to him at any time for advice and guidance.

Hiring Mark made a difficult situation bearable. He was truly top notch to work with. I needed help and I needed the legal matters resolved quickly. Mark made sure that happened. Within a matter of weeks we have resolved the issues and I can breathe again. Mark was honest, gave clear direction and advice, and accomplished things QUICKLY. I would most certainly recommend him to anyone in need. I also appreciated his fee based pricing. I knew going into it exactly how much I would be spending, which alleviated a lot of stress.
