Services
Personal Injury
Khalaf & Nguyen represents clients injured due to others' negligence, including car accidents, slip-and-falls, and catastrophic injuries. We handle insurance negotiations and litigation to secure compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain. Our contingency fee model ensures no upfront costs, and clients receive direct attorney communication throughout the process.
Criminal Defense
We defend clients charged with misdemeanors and felonies in Mississippi state and federal courts. Our services include DUI defense, expungement eligibility assessments, and representation in trials and appeals. Attorneys Jad and Ammie are licensed in all Mississippi courts and have experience handling cases from arrest to resolution.
Expungement
Our firm assists clients in clearing past arrests or convictions through Mississippi's expungement laws. Eligible cases include dismissed charges, first-offense misdemeanors, and certain felonies after five years. We guide clients through petition filing and court proceedings to erase criminal records impacting employment or education opportunities.
DUI Defense
We defend first-time and repeat DUI charges, including license suspension hearings and court trials. Our strategies challenge evidence, negotiate reduced penalties, and explore expungement options post-conviction. We also advise on ignition interlock device requirements and insurance implications.
Medical Malpractice
We pursue claims against healthcare providers for surgical errors, misdiagnoses, and birth injuries. Our investigations gather medical records and expert testimony to prove negligence. Compensation covers treatment costs, lost income, and long-term care needs resulting from substandard care.
