Best Lawyers is one of the oldest and most respected peer-review publications in the legal profession. Its selection process is designed to capture the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice area. Attorneys are nominated by their peers and then evaluated based on feedback from other lawyers, who are asked how likely they would be to refer a case to the nominee. After confirming that nominees are in good standing with their local bar associations, the results are compiled and released.
Derek L. Hall, the firm's founder and managing partner, has over 30 years of legal experience. He practices in personal injury, divorce, family law, criminal defense, real estate, and veterans' benefits. He is certified as a Guardian Ad Litem by the state of Mississippi and is VA Accredited by the Veterans Administration. He is a member of the Mississippi, Georgia, and American Bar Associations.

Whether it's a car accident, a child custody dispute, or a denial of veterans' benefits, we are here for you."
The recognition of both attorneys in the 2027 edition of Best Lawyers is a testament to their expertise and the high regard in which they are held by their peers.
