⚖️ FACT OR FICTION: TAX DEED CONFIRMATION

“Once you receive a tax deed, you automatically have an unchallengeable title to the property.”

🚨 FICTION.

In Mississippi, a tax-sale purchaser can pursue a court proceeding to confirm and quiet the tax title after the redemption period has expired. Mississippi law provides for these proceedings in chancery court.

Why does that matter?

A tax sale involves specific statutory requirements—including required notices. Mississippi courts have emphasized that failures to comply with those requirements can affect whether a tax title can ultimately be confirmed.

Tax deeds can be complicated. If you purchased property at a tax sale or are dealing with property that has a tax-sale history, proper legal review can be extremely important. And we can help!

💙💛 GET TO KNOW THE CARDWELL FIRM: ANDREW CARDWELL 💛💙

Sixteen years. Thousands of legal documents. Countless cups of coffee. And, according to Andrew, a very important responsibility of keeping the copier filled with paper and taste-testing the coffee. 😂☕️

Meet Andrew Cardwell, Managing Attorney and the person behind The Cardwell Firm’s commitment to educating clients and making complicated legal matters easier to understand.

⚖️ The Basics
📍 Hometown: Cedar Hill, TX
💼 With The Cardwell Firm: 16 years
🥩 Favorite food: Steak
🍽️ Favorite restaurant: Irene's
☕️ Coffee or tea: A whole pot of coffee
🌙 Morning person or night owl: Night owl
🍂 Favorite season: Fall
🏔️ Favorite vacation: Anywhere with mountains and cooler temperatures
🎬 Favorite movie: Interstellar
🎶 Favorite artists: Koe Wetzel & Turnpike Troubadours

Now for the things you probably didn't know about Andrew…

🕵️ If he weren't an attorney, he'd probably be a detective.
👂 Hidden talent: He can wiggle his ears.
🪵 Something he'd love to master: Woodworking.
🥋 And his choice of superpower? In his own words:
“The ability to kill a yak from 200 yards away with mind bullets.” 😂

His favorite way to spend a Saturday is hanging out with his family and watching the Texas Longhorns play football. 🏈

But when we asked Andrew what he loves most about practicing law, his answer gets a little more serious—and it says a lot about the kind of attorney he strives to be:

“Giving clients peace of mind through education and planning.”

Andrew believes what makes The Cardwell Firm different is our ability to educate clients and explain complex legal concepts in plain English.

And his favorite thing about the team?

“They keep the coffee pot full, and don't yell at me too much.” 😂☕

Finally, we asked him to finish the sentence:

“At The Cardwell Firm, I love the sense of satisfaction that comes along with tailoring an estate plan for clients that makes their lives easier, their loved ones' lives easier, and saves them money in the long term.”

That's the heart of what we do. 💙

Help us say hello to Andrew Cardwell! 👋

✨ WORTH KNOWING WEDNESDAY ✨

Did you know?

Buying property at a Mississippi tax sale doesn't necessarily mean your work is finished once the redemption period expires.

In Mississippi, a person holding or claiming under a tax title may bring a proceeding in chancery court to have the tax title confirmed and quieted after the redemption period has expired.

So, what is tax deed confirmation?

It is a legal proceeding designed to establish and confirm the purchaser's title to property acquired through a tax sale.

A confirmation proceeding can involve:
✔ Filing a sworn complaint in chancery court
✔ Identifying parties who may have an interest in the property
✔ Providing the required notice
✔ Obtaining a court judgment confirming the tax title

Once entered, the judgment can provide conclusive evidence of title against persons claiming under the title that existed before the tax sale.

📍 Tax-sale property can involve complicated title issues. Proper legal guidance matters.

📞 The Cardwell Firm can help you understand the legal process involved with tax deed confirmation in Mississippi.

☀️ A Bright Future Starts With a Plan.

We spend so much time planning for the things we hope will happen—retirement, vacations, a new home, our children’s futures.

But have you made a plan for what happens to everything you’ve worked so hard to build?

A trust can be an important part of an estate plan and may help:

☀️ Keep your assets organized
☀️ Provide for the people you love
☀️ Avoid or simplify certain court proceedings
☀️ Protect your wishes for how and when assets are distributed
☀️ Give your family clear direction when they need it most

Creating a trust isn’t about expecting the worst.

It’s about preparing for the future you hope to have—and protecting the people who matter most along the way. 💙

Don’t wait for a life-changing event to make a plan.

Plan today. Protect tomorrow. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your family is prepared.

Come see Andrew and experience the Cardwell way.
