Knowledgable, professional and a great people person

Our previous lawyer could not get anywhere with our case. David was able to accomplish everything we wanted. He is extremely approachable and accommodating as well as professional and knowledgable in his field. Would highly recommend him.

I am out of state and I had a warrant, multiple charges and I needed this issue resolved to get my license back, this law firm and my lawyer (David ball) did such an amazing job resolving this issue and saved me roughly 1,200 and countless hours... he handled my case very efficiently and I believe wh...ole heartedly he got me the best outcome possible!

Posted by Eva | September 11, 2019 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Strategic & motivated to help his clients.

I was charged with DWLR from two prior DWIs, reckless driving (over 90mph), unlawful passing & illegal tint. With his years of experience & extensive knowledge of the the judicial system he adviced me on the options that would favor my case. One of them being driving school to be a litigating factor ...(evidence of myself trying to right my wrong doing). Due to the fact that this was my second DWLR due to impairment I was facing 120+ days in county, Mr. Ball was able to strike the best deal possible on my behalf. Pleading guilty to the DWLR, the other charges were dropped & only being sentenced 5 days (at the discretion of my PO) & 12 months supervised probation & only having to pay court costs. I recommend his services 100%. He most definitely knows what he is doing. His retaining fee is based on financial state & charges so very obtainable & fantastic representation.

Mrs.

David helped me with a “pre-nup” agreement. Obviously I hope to never need it; however, I feel protected if I do. We even put some additional and personal clauses in it - like an infidelity clause. I believe it is important to have someone that can help you navigate awkward conversations such as t...his prior to even getting married... so I know he could handle even tougher conversations post marriage, divorce or other family situation.

"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."
