Testimonials

★ ★ ★ ★ ★
4 1/2 years ago I was represented by Hodges, Doughty and Carson in a Civil matter that could have cost me everything. Joshua Ball did an awesome job defending me. He walked me through everything that we were going to face and treated me like family. His firm is blessed to have a great Attorney that works hard to get the job done and treats his clients with respect. I am so glad that Carson, Doughty & Carson were there for me. Great Law Firm and most importantly a great staff.

My experience in working with Josh Ball and Mabern Wall has been extraordinary. As well as being totally professional and excellent lawyers, they have been caring and concerned people while helping me with my legal case. I was consulted, listened to, and kept informed every step of the way. They were by my side when I needed them and very committed to achieving the best possible result for me! I was treated as a valued friend, and that is the way I feel about them. I do not think you could find better lawyers to represent you.

Lawsuits can be scary things. They can be confusing and intimidating. Thankfully, the lawyers and staff at Hodges, Doughty & Carson are there to help you. Everybody was patient, understanding, and willing to take the time to explain everything not just to me, but to my wife as well, even over the phone. As much as I needed, when I needed, they had answers to my questions that were thorough and timely. They helped put me at ease with the legal process. I worked with Josh Bond and Josh Ball and their teams. They got me the best possible results I could hope for. Thank you to Josh Bond, Josh Ball, Mabern Wall, Terri Grigsby and Donna Murphy. You made a very difficult time for me and my family better. Thank you.

Thank you for everything. When this case started we were at a complete loss. Our first meeting with you we didn’t know what to expect. You were always up front and kept us informed of what was going on. Its been a long 4 years. You are a great attorney, your performance in that court room was amazing. God bless you and your staff.
