Car Accident Lawyer Serving Rankin County, MS
If you were hit by another driver in Brandon, Flowood, Pearl, or anywhere in Rankin County, you don't have to drive to Jackson to get a good attorney.
I'm Caleb Courtney. I handle car accident cases for clients across Rankin County personally — no case managers, no staff filters, no waiting a week for a callback. Call or text me directly and I'll tell you honestly what your claim is worth pursuing.
Car Accident Claims I Handle in Rankin County
Whether your crash happened on US-80 near Brandon, Lakeland Drive in Flowood, or at an intersection in Pearl, I represent Rankin County car accident victims across all types of claims.
Rear-End Collisions
One of the most common crashes on Rankin County roads — and one where the at-fault driver's insurance company will still look for ways to minimize your payout.
Intersection Crashes
T-bone and angle collisions often result in serious injuries. Determining fault at an intersection requires quick action to preserve traffic cam footage and witness accounts.
Distracted and Impaired Driving
Cell phone records, toxicology reports, and eyewitness testimony are all evidence I pursue in cases involving negligent drivers.
Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Claims
If the driver who hit you didn't carry enough coverage, your own policy may still provide a path to compensation. I handle UM/UIM claims and deal directly with your insurer.
Hit-and-Run Accidents
Even when the at-fault driver flees, you may have options. I investigate what coverage applies and how to pursue your claim.

What to Do After a Car Accident in Rankin County
The steps you take in the hours and days after a crash directly affect your ability to recover fair compensation. Here's what I tell every client:
Call 911 and stay at the scene
Get law enforcement on the way, even if the accident seems minor. A police report creates an official record that matters when the other driver's story changes later.
Get medical attention — right away
Don't wait to see how you feel. Some injuries, including whiplash and soft tissue damage, don't show up immediately. Gaps in medical care give insurance companies an opening to argue your injuries weren't serious.
Document everything you can
Photos of both vehicles, the road conditions, any visible injuries, and the surrounding area. Get the other driver's insurance information, license plate, and contact details for any witnesses.
Don't give a recorded statement to the insurance company
Adjusters may contact you within days. You are not required to give a recorded statement, and anything you say can be used to reduce your claim. Talk to an attorney first.
Contact me before accepting any settlement offer
Insurance companies move fast when they think a claimant doesn't have a lawyer. A quick settlement offer is almost never a fair one. Let me review what you're being offered before you sign anything.
You Deserve to Talk Directly to Your Lawyer
Most law firms in the Jackson area operate the same way: you call after your accident, you talk to a receptionist, your file gets assigned to a case manager, and you spend months wondering what's actually happening with your claim.
When you hire Courtney Law, I handle your case from the first call through final resolution. You get my direct number. I answer texts and calls personally. If something changes in your case, you hear it from me — not from a form letter.
And because I handle everything remotely, you never have to drive to Jackson. Documents get signed through DocuSign. Updates happen by call or text. If you're in Brandon, Flowood, Pearl, Richland, or anywhere near the Reservoir, I can get started on your case today without you leaving your house.
How Long Do You Have to File a Car Accident Claim in Rankin County?
Mississippi's statute of limitations for personal injury claims is three years from the date of your accident. Missing that deadline means losing your right to recover — permanently.
But waiting, even well within the deadline, works against you. Evidence gets harder to locate. Witnesses become harder to reach. And the longer you go without an attorney, the more time the other driver's insurance company has to build a case that minimizes what they owe you.
If you're not sure whether your accident happened recently enough to pursue a claim, call or text me. I'll give you a straight answer.
