Extremely helpful

Tremendously helpful! We have a legal problem and thought we would need to hire a law firm and go to court. Ball and Yorke was recommended to us, so I called and spoke to Brian Yorke. He listened to our story and made several suggestions including that we write a letter. He told us, in detail, wh...at to say and what not to say. The he even proof read our draft. Needless to say it did the trick and the issue was resolved. We couldn't be happier and I recommend them without reservation!

Shelby VS Toppers

I would like to thank Brian Yorke and his firm for assisting my 91 year old father helping him to win his case against Toppers Pizza. Two years ago my father fell in the back parking lot of our local Toppers Pizza. The fall was due Toppers noncompliance of handi cap signage, no handi cap ramp in the...ir rear parking lot and very poor lighting. Brian and his team did an excellent job representing my parents discovering what really happened at the scene of the accident, interviewing the employees to build our case for the lawsuit and gaining the evidence needed for us to "win our case" against Toppers Pizza. Their team communicated with us every step of the way. Their general concern for my fathers and our entire families well-being was amazing. They made this entire process effortless for us and we really appreciate all that they have done to win our case. I would highly recommend Brian Yorke and his firm to represent them at any time. They were fantastic. Thank you.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
