Family Court Services for Mississippi Parents

If you are heading into family court in Mississippi, your case lands in the Chancery Court, one of the filings handled across the state's 82 counties. Most parents arrive without an attorney and learn the process while living it. Every service listed below exists to shorten that learning curve, from estimating support to drafting the motion you have to file.

In Mississippi, family cases sit with the Chancery Court. Local practice varies, including forms, fees, and how hearings get set, so always check with the court in your county for what applies to you.
