Local accident help
Greenville anchors the Mississippi Delta along US-82, which carries traffic across the river bridge, and near US-61, the north-south route running through the region. Long rural highway stretches and a mix of local and long-haul traffic can make Delta-area crashes especially serious. If you were injured in the Greenville area, FaultFreeClaims can connect you with an independent, licensed Mississippi attorney who can review your options.

Pure comparative negligence — recover even if 99% at fault (reduced by your share)
It depends where on the bridge, and that is genuinely hard to eyeball. US-82 crosses the Mississippi River there, with Arkansas on the far bank, and the state line follows the river rather than anything painted on the road. If your crash was on the Arkansas side, Mississippi's three-year deadline and pure comparative rule are not the ones that apply.
Washington County Circuit Court, in Greenville, the county seat. Which county the wreck happened in is generally what sets the court, and out in the Delta those lines sit far apart, so a crash well up US-61 can answer to a different courthouse. Some claims never get near a courthouse at all and close with the insurer.
Usually the Mississippi Highway Patrol on the US highways, the Washington County sheriff's office on county roads, and Greenville Police Department inside the city. Your copy comes from the agency that answered the call, not from a central office. More than one agency can turn up on a rural stretch, so write down the name and the badge of whoever actually took your statement.
In Mississippi, the deadline is generally 3 years from the date of the accident. 3 years personal injury (general); wrongful death 3 years. Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.
