Great Lawyer!!!
I was very nervous when I realized that I had an issue that I needed legal advice about but I was quickly put at ease when I spoke with Josh Ball. He was very knowledgeable about the laws that applied to my situation and willing to listen and guide me through the process. He responded to my emails quickly and was available to talk with me by phone. I cannot express enough about how great he was to work with. I now know who I will call if any other legal issues arise.

Highly recommend!
Joshua Ball was consulted in my estate case (which Donald Farinato is representing) regarding some very difficult issues involving insurance. He was able to get the insurance to pay (they were denying coverage) and work through some other issues and saved the estate thousands of dollars. He is very professional and super friendly. I enjoyed working with him and would definitely use him again, if needed.

Better than expected settlement
Joshua M. Ball advised me on my auto accident property damage claim. I was very pleased with the results. Mr. Ball didn't just know how to handle the relevant legal issues. More importantly, based on his experience, he also knew what to expect from the claims adjustors and the body shop. He knew what decisions would need to be made, and when, in order to successfully navigate the property damage process. I was completely new to this process, so at first I felt a little apprehensive about how it would turn out. Thankfully Mr. Ball has been there and done that, so he knew what to expect, so that I was prepared for every decision and I understood the pros and cons. With Mr. Ball's expert guidance, I ended up with a better-than-expected settlement, and now I can move on with my life. Thank you Mr. Ball! Rich Fridell

Knowledgeable attorney, excellent interpersonal skills
Josh Ball has a great combination of intelligent understanding of the law and practical understanding of the human elements in a case. He is dutiful when it comes to the details and good at communicating the big picture. Josh is personal and honest, and I would hire him again without hesitation if I had a need anywhere in his vicinity in the future.
