About Joshua

I am a father of 2 boys.  When I am not practicing law, I enjoy spending time with my family.  I also enjoy spending time outdoors.  I am a private pilot.  I also enjoy college football, golf, and boating.  The thing I enjoy most about practicing law is helping people.  I enjoy guiding clients through the maze of civil litigation.

Review Joshua Ball

Great Lawyer!!!

Posted by

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.

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.
