Meet The Team

BALL PLLC’s attorneys generally have a minimum of 15 years of experience, an average of 30 years of experience, and most have held a leadership role as an in-house counsel or business executive (or both).  In addition to their seniority and experience, each team member has gained deep industry knowledge.

BALL PLLC attorneys aren’t project attorneys or expensive, hired guns. They dedicate their time to just a few client companies and learn what makes them tick.  As a result, our clients receive advice from seasoned attorneys who know their business, understand their industry and provide timely, practical services.

BALL PLLC advisors are drawn from the ranks of some of the most elite military organizations in the world, (including the Navy Seals, US Army Special Forces, and “Delta Force” among others) as well as corporate security, cyber operations specialists and investigators employed by both governmental agencies and industry leaders.  These Advisors work as part of the broader BALL PLLC team to develop actionable intelligence and implement strategies designed to solve real world problems.
