I have worked with Mr. Ball as opposing counsel in a number of family law cases. He is thorough, reasonable, and always looking out for the best interests of his clients, while still being respectful and willing to communicate with other attorneys, which helps to move a domestic case along efficiently and without unnecessary cost to his clients. I endorse him.

David is a fierce litigator while in the courtroom. When needed, he is willing to attack the opposition. However, I have also had very positive experiences working across the aisle with him to obtain settlements that benefited both of our clients. He is an attorney you want on your side for either settlement or trial.
