HUNTER DUBROW
Attorneys At LAw
BuiLt from Grit, Guided By HeArt
At Hunter Dubrow, PLLC, two determined single mothers turned a bold dream into a thriving law firm where compassion and authenticity rule the day.
When Kelly Pendergrass Hunter and Cynthia Carter Dubrow launched their firm in 2016, they weren’t chasing prestige – they were chasing possibility.
Two single mothers with no safety net and no big-name backing, they saw a chance to create a legal practice that worked for their families and for their clients. And they took it.
Nearly a decade later, Hunter Dubrow, PLLC is a respected Gulf Coast firm providing services in family law, criminal defense, estate planning, and personal injury. But what sets it apart is not just what they do – it’s how they do it.
“We built this firm to meet the needs of our kids, first and foremost,” says Hunter. “We didn’t want to sacrifice being present mothers just to practice law.”
An Unconventional Approach with Unmistakable Results
Forget the stiff suits and legal jargon. At Hunter Dubrow, jeans and sparkles are the uniform when court isn’t in session. Clients are welcomed into a space that’s grounded, empathetic, and real – where they can speak freely and be heard.
“We tailor our approach to each client’s circumstances,” says Dubrow. “Our job is to walk with them through some of the hardest moments of their lives.”
The partners don’t sugarcoat the law or promise miracles. They offer clarity, compassion, and truth – even when it’s hard to hear.
Rooted in Story, Driven by Shared Struggle
Kelly, a Pascagoula native with a background in insurance defense, and Cynthia, a former educator and radio personality, took very different paths to law. But both had walked the tightrope of single motherhood while building legal careers – and both knew traditional firms left little room for that reality.
So they built something better.
“We didn’t have a family name or legacy firm behind us,” says Hunter. “We had guts, late nights, and each other.”
Their names now appear alongside those of their mentors, not by accident but through sacrifice, dedication, and daily hustle.
Finding Light in the Work
Legal practice is often emotionally taxing, and one of the toughest challenges is watching clients ignore solid advice. But amid the strain are bright moments – especially adoptions.
“We spend so much time dividing families,” says Dubrow. “So helping build one reminds us why we do this.”
Real People, Real Values
Their unofficial motto – “It’s fine, everything’s fine” – reflects their ability to meet chaos with humor and composure. But they lead with integrity and aim to treat everyone – clients, peers, staff – with respect and humanity.
“We want people to hear our names and think, ‘They’re good people,’” says Hunter. “That means more than any title.”
Balance, Boundaries, and the Bigger Picture
They take their work seriously – but also know when to step back. Whether it’s a beach day with their kids or a spontaneous adventure, they make space for life outside the courtroom.
Because success, for them, was never just about building a firm. It was about building a life that works – and helping others do the same.
Personal Injury FIrm TreaTs ClIenTs lIke FamIly
With aggressive, personalized advocacy, attorneys make it their mission to get injured workers the justice they rightly deserve.
Those who have been injured in the workplace have a long road to recovery ahead of them, and the process of receiving worker’s compensation often doesn’t make it any easier. But making sure workers receive what they deserve is the driving force behind Barlow Goff Injury Attorneys.
Attorneys Jonathan M. Barlow and Marshall Goff believe that every client deserves not just representation but true, aggressive advocacy. They have extensive experience in cases involving car accidents, slip and fall accidents, and other workplace injuries.
Due to the attorneys’ commitment to personal service, they monitor their caseload to make
sure every client receives the attention they deserve. Barlow Goff doesn’t just work for its clients, it works with them with clear communication, strategic planning, and relentless pursuit of justice, whether in negotiations or at trial.
“For me, the most rewarding part of this job is fighting for those who feel voiceless,” said Jonathan Barlow. “Many of our clients come to us in the darkest moments of their lives, after serious injuries or life-altering accidents. Helping them rebuild, securing the compensation they deserve, and knowing that we’ve made a lasting impact on their lives is what drives me every day.”
It isn’t often easy to navigate the complexity of working with insurance companies. Large corporations can be determined to minimize payouts.
And that is precisely why Barlow Goff prepares each case as though it will go to trial from day one. This gives the attorneys the leverage and confidence to fight for what is rightfully owed to their clients. Putting the clients needs and interests first, the team endeavors to produce the best possible results for those it represents.
All of this is done with the personal touch that shows each person is more than just a case to Barlow Goff. Its team makes sure that, in addition to having deep legal knowledge, it is also able to account for its clients’ personal concerns and use those to guide its advocacy in court and out.
“We focus on treating clients like they are our family, so we never lose sight of the goal: ensuring every client receives the benefits they are entitled to,” said Jonathan.
In this way, the firm earns the trust of its clients, and its reputation grows with every successful case. The practice has grown through wordof-mouth and client referrals. It knows that this
kind of community recognition can’t be bought. It is earned through hard work, compassion, and proven results.
Because of this, the firm often finds ways to give back to the community that has, in turn, supported it.
“We’re proud to be a part of South Mississippi,” said Jonathan. “From sponsoring local events like the Dragon Boat Festival to engaging with our clients at Shuckers games, we’re committed to not just being your law firm, but being your neighbor.”
When a client chooses to work with Barlow Goff, its attorneys are determined to show them that they aren’t just a case number. They are part of its ever-growing family.

CASUAL RESTAURANT
Family Restaurant Serves Authentic Italian Food
When a guest comes to Italy Terrace for their next meal, they find Atlantic City Italian food served with genuine Southern hospitality. Every moment of the experience reflects the roots of its owners.
Chef Damian Marraffa and his wife, pastry chef Naria Marraffa, along with his aunt and uncle Paul and Colleen Cutler, are the ownership team behind Italy Terrace. Damian and Naria were both born and raised in Atlantic City, New Jersey, in Ducktown – an area of the city rich with Italian culture. The restaurant stays true to this background, offering Atlantic City-style subs for lunch and Italian-American dishes at night, inspired by family dinners.
“We welcome our guests with the kind of hospitality our family would give to each other,” said Naria. “Each dish, no matter if it’s a sub or a plate of spaghetti and meatballs, is crafted with the authenticity of our family recipes. Our name, Italy Terrace, is the street Damian and his family grew up on, off Mississippi Avenue in Atlantic City.” The couple takes this as a clear sign of where they were meant to end up.
and eat and join in sports watching, card playing, and laughter. This dedication to feeding friends, family, and neighbors grew into something beautiful – Italy Terrace.
Besides its lunch and dinner offerings, it has a small batch bakery available on site. It offers a collection of cakes, cannolis, and pies. These are all homemade in small batches to maintain optimum freshness.
The Marraffa family loves being a part of the neighborhood of Gulf Hills. They moved from New Jersey to Ocean Springs for this opportunity to open their restaurant. At the time, it was only the Cutlers that they knew, but owning and operating a restaurant here has given them something they never knew they needed – a community.
“We love serving our neighbors,” said Naria. “One of [them] came during our Wednesday ‘Martini and Meatball’ night and cried when she ate her plate of meatballs. She told us in a tearful exchange that it reminded her so much of her Italian grandmother’s food.”
This neighbor and her husband have since become good friends of the Marraffas and treasured regulars at the restaurant.
A true family establishment, the Marraffas’ 8-year-old daughter, Analouise, will often come to the restaurant and help Naria set the tables and play hostess.
“We are so proud of our team and our community,” said Naria. “They’ve lifted us up in times of difficulty and given us encouragement whenever we felt beaten down. They’ve rallied for us, promoted us, and supported us in every way possible.”
Naria recalls when she and Damian first met, his passion for hospitality was evident in his hosting of Sunday Night dinner in his home for neighbors. Anyone and everyone was welcome to come
So many of its guests become friends, like the couple mentioned above. The Marraffas consider living in Gulf Hills to be the biggest blessing. Its people are truly genuine and one of a kind. They can’t imagine their restaurant being anywhere else. Italy Terrace is in Ocean Springs to stay.

With unmatched experience, creativity, and heart, Say Yes turns wedding day dreams into seamless, stunning realities. No matter the size, culture, or vision!
beyond any rigid expectations, Say Yes Weddings & Events has entered its own expert stage, making dreams come true for all its clients.
Owners and lead planners Brie Lybrand Garza and Jordan Melancon formed the idea of Say Yes Weddings & Events, lovingly called “Say Yes,” from the mixing of their combined passions and skills. Using Brie’s organizational skills born from planning high profile political events, Jordan’s personal touch from experience in customer service fields, and their combined love of Broadway productions, they transformed these disparate interests into a show ready business.
One such memorable occasion was a couple that wanted their wedding to be a traditional Southern affair complete with elegant water views and formal dresses.
Say Yes Weddings & Events stepped in, setting up open flame lanterns leading to a hand carved wooden arch and bringing in a vintage streetcar as a caterer. This event showcases that clients aren’t a business arrangement, but instead they become part of the Say Yes family.
“We’re not just in the wedding industry. We’re in the memory-making business.”
The company has developed a reputation that recognizes it as “fairy godmothers, timeline whisperers, and logistics queens but mostly, we’re known for being real. Real planners, real heart, real results,” something Brie is proud to say.
Now a fully-fledged company capable of handling anything from an intimate two-person elopements to 1,000-person weddings, Say Yes uses its expertise to create unforgettable ‘one-night-only’ wedding productions.
“Say Yes isn’t just in the wedding industry, we’re in the memory-making business,” Brie says.
Say Yes Weddings & Events believes in a deep personal connection with each client. “We love, love,” Brie remarks towards weddings, with Jordan quick to add, “We believe every client deserves a fairytale ‘I do’ which our team loves to deliver!”
Though its successes are grandiose and its reputation is great, the team operates at a down-to-earth level, making it easy for potential clients to make contact.
Even with the stress of a large wedding or event looming, every initial chat with Say Yes Weddings & Events is just that – a casual chat. Brie, Jordan, and the Say Yes team want to bond with clients, discussing their perfect wedding ‘vibes’ and learning their personalities, priorities, and who they are as a couple. It is recognized that to refine a person’s special day, one must first know their heart and mind. Even virtually, the team makes this happen.
“We do Zoom calls, FaceTimes, and virtual 3D walkthroughs of your wedding layout. We’ve planned entire weddings without ever shaking hands until the rehearsal,” Jordan says.
Distance will never deter these passionate wedding planners. If clients reach out and believe their dream is best produced by Say Yes Weddings & Events, the team does everything in its power to create show-stopping moments that last a lifetime. With the tagline “We work your wedding, while you’re working,” the team can handle every aspect for a client. Say Yes stays in contact with clients and can go along with them to every cake tasting, floral design appointment, and venue walk-through.
The team particularly loves to challenge itself with lavish and culturally specific wedding ceremonies. An example was a recent large-scale Vietnamese wedding with strong traditional cultural values, which Say Yes Weddings & Events oversaw without worrying the bride or groom and ensuring family values were honored.
“Tea Ceremonies are beautiful family traditions in the Vietnamese community, and we have so much fun watching the bride and groom enjoy Chào Bàn with their guest,” Brie stated in response to her love of Vietnamese weddings.
We’re truly honored to be voted Best of Coastal Mississippi! Thank you for believing in the magic we create. At Say Yes Weddings & Events, we don’t just plan weddings, we create unforgettable moments, all rooted in love for our craft and the people we serve.
The future has endless possibilities in store for Say Yes Weddings & Events such as eventually opening its own venue. Until then, the team will continue to use its skills, creativity, passion, and kindness to ensure magical moments for anyone that comes knocking.
