About Ball PLLC

Our Philosophy

A WIDER VIEW OF LEGAL SERVICES

Law spans business and geography. We see our legal expertise as part of a wider problem-solving process that requires the integration of lawyers, tax, accounting, finance, risk and compliance managers, technology and management experts, investment advisors, and a host of other disciplines. From our point of view, the goal of law—and professional services more broadly—is to create value for business—and providing that value means redefining what is “possible” for our clients.

We’re not just lawyers, but strategic problem solvers.

We want to alter the paradigm of the traditional law firm, replacing it with a flexible, dynamic, team-based approach designed to deliver solutions for business challenges and capture opportunities. That is why BALL PLLC provides enhanced services in the areas of business intelligence, enhanced due diligence, investigations, security, and change management.*

For our clients, it doesn’t matter that a solution provider is described as a “law firm,” a business advisor, or something else. What matters is the ability to produce impactful solutions for business challenges. Our multidisciplinary teams provide a more comprehensive approach. As a result, we offer effective, actionable guidance and enhanced performance.

We call this our “FIRM” approach: Fully Integrated Risk Management©

OUR COMMITMENT

Our partners joined BALL PLLC in pursuit of a common goal: to offer clients better services, more resources, more experience, and better talent. We focus on what is important by partnering with the best people, eschewing the expensive offices and bloated staff of traditional firms in favor of technology—to reduce costs and improve efficiency. As a team, we commit to ourselves and to our clients that we will always be open and transparent, always work as a team, and never be afraid to be “different” or “first.”

CLIENT-CENTERED APPROACH

BALL PLLC takes a client-centered approach to service. We constantly seek to improve our clients’ experience. We see ourselves as part of a client’s core team and identify our success solely through the achievement of successful outcomes for our clients. We don’t use untrained attorneys. Our approach to efficiency, combined with a team of seasoned lawyers, means that we can offer world-class services to clients and very competitive prices.
