Collins Legal Services And Resources | Jay Foster Law

I handle personal injury cases in Collins and Covington County. A wreck on US-49, on MS-184 as it runs through downtown, or in any other part of Covington County puts your case on the docket at the courthouse for Covington County, on South Dogwood Avenue in Collins. Not in Hattiesburg. Not in Jackson. In Collins. I have handled cases in Covington County Circuit Court and I know the difference between a lawyer who files suit here and one who never has.

Collins is the Covington County seat. US-49 runs through the city connecting the Gulf Coast to Jackson, and MS-184 runs east-west through downtown along the former US-84 corridor. Through-traffic on US-49 mixes with commercial traffic on MS-184 at the interchange that anchors the Collins commercial district. That is the corridor where Covington County wrecks happen and where Covington County cases are built.
