Paul A Chiniche's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have known Paul since he first started practicing law in Ocean Springs, MS. Both Paul and I chose to leave the coast after Katrina and moved our practice to Oxford, MS. My area of practice is bankruptcy, and several of my clients through the years were represented by Paul before or after being represented by me. Everyone of my clients that also were represented by Paul received excellent representation in the field in which they needed his assistance. For these reasons, I endorse Paul Chiniche."
"I endorse this lawyer. Space did not permit my pointing out that he does much more than criminal defense, although that is how I first met him. He is personable, professional and "listens" ! I would recommend him to represent a member of my family or close frined."
"I highly endorse this attorney. I have known Paul Chiniche for over 10 years through our continuing legal education classes with the Southern Trial Lawyers Association and counseling with each other on various cases. Paul is a very thoughtful and caring attorney who is both thorough and effective inside & outside the courtroom. Do not hesitate to call on him when the need arises."
