Law Office of Scott R Ball

I received a red light camera ticket which wouldve cost me $ 554 with traffic school and $ 500 without. At such a high price, I decided to look into trying to get my ticket dismissed. Thats where Scott came in. After searching online and on Unilocal,Scott had the best ratings so I decided to give him a call. I gave him my name and ticket # and he was able to review over the ticket itself, along with the video and camera footage. He gave me a call back and luckily he found a bunch of things he could bring up in court in my favor! Scott kept reassuring me that he highly believed my case would get dismissed. Once I gave him the OK and made my payment, he took care of EVERYTHING! I didn’t even have to appear in court! He’s very quick to respond and he keeps you in the loop with your case which is much appreciated.
The same day he appeared in court on my behalf, he emailed me the good news! MY TICKET GOT D I S M I S S E D!
I definitely recommend going through Scott if you’ve found yourself in the same situation as myself. It’s not a 100% guarantee the ticket will get dismissed but it’s better than nothing!

Received A Red Light Ticket At 5:30 Am In A Vacant Intersection While Making A Right Hand Turn! I Had A Lot Of Options To Chose From For Legal Counsel And I Found Scott R. Ball On Unilocal With Excellent Reviews! From Our First Meeting Through My Ticket Being Dismissed, Scott Ball Was Very Professional, Very Customer Service Oriented, To The Point, Kept Me In The Loop During The Entire Process And Did His Homework! I Can Drive Through Intersections Now Without Stressing Or Having To Slam My Brakes On!

I’ve used Scott Ball twice in the past few years for two different matters and he’s been honest, realistic and dependable. I don’t regret hiring him at all and I would happily recommend him to anyone. He’s good at what he does and it’s critical to remember that there’s only so much an attorney can do for you and he’s honest about that. Sometimes, things get dismissed; sometimes, they don’t. However, at least hiring Mr. Ball gives you a chance to get things dismissed or reduced. If you don’t, you’re either fighting it yourself or accepting the charges and moving on. He’s gotten great results for me and saved me a lot of time and money.
He’s also incredibly responsive and I really appreciate that level of customer service. Typically, I hear from him within one business day (sometimes, within a couple of hours). Attorneys are busy people so for him to be that quick with response really shows a new level of dedication to his clients. For my first ticket, I contacted Mr. Ball and another law firm (with multiple attorneys and paralegals) and the other firm could barely give me the time of day and made it clear they didn’t want my business. Mr. Ball was pleasant and answered my concerns logically and thoroughly and I hired him on the spot. He’s also technologically savvy so you can take care of everything via email and phone and his emails are clear and easy to understand.

Scott Ball is fantastic. He helped me with an infraction at John Wayne Airport. I felt so re assured having Scott on m side.

Scott had our red-​light camera citation dismissed. Very easy process. Emailed him the ticket info and paid his fees over the phone with a credit card. That was it. He emailed us a week before court date to keep us informed, then another email the day after he appeared in court to let us know the great news.

Waste of time and money.
I got a ticket on Main street in Huntington Beach while driving for Über. The officer caught me doing illegal uturn when I crossed the street to pick up my passengers.
Called this guy. Paid him $ 200.
Long story short.
I ended up paying for my ticket

I payed for traffic school

Obviously had to go to traffic school

Got points on my record

Wasted $ 200 for nothing.
Got the letter from the guy saying. Next time you get a ticket call me again and when I loose again I will not even charge you for loosing your case again.
Isn’t he just most generous guy in Orange County.

He got me out of my BS camera light ticket! Screw you, Orange County! You’re not getting my $ 600.

Thank you Mr. Ball! 2 citations dismissed!
I hope I don’t need to but I would definitely hire you again.
Total 5 Star this attorney knows what he’s doing!

Received a red light ticket violation notice in the mail. A quick search and phone call to Scott’s office and I spoke to Scott directly. Very professional, fast, affordable, and convenient experience. Besides a phone call and payment to Scott, my case was dismissed with no effort from me.
I highly recommend Scott. If I have any traffic violation issues in the future, I know who to call.
Big thanks to Scott and his team.

Scott sure knows what he is doing when it comes to getting your tickets dismissed!
Looking at the photos of my red light violation, I was obviously guilty as sin, however; Scott still got the ticket dismissed and saved me hundreds of dollars because of this.
I highly recommend his counsel. Definitely someone I will keep in mind just in case anything else adverse comes my way.

I had such a pleasant experience with Scott!
Mid Feb 2016 I received a red light camera ticket which I know for a fact that I didn’t run the red light (Westminster & Brookhurst in garden grove).
I received a couple ads from other attorneys & wasn’t impressed by their customers service and the free consultations consisted of «either hire me or get a point on your record». I am skeptical period I looked up every attorney on Unilocal,BBB & the California board to make sure I wasn’t being scammed.
Scott’s letter was the last ad I received. I was super skeptical his Unilocal were all 5 stars but I can proudly say he earned every star.
I gave him a call and left a message for him. He called me back within 24 hours and had already looked over the pictures and video. Right off the bat he let me know his game plan on fighting the ticket & was amazing with his customer service. This was a ticket over $ 500 (his services were way less & I’d rather pay him than the city for sure) and it was a tiny cloud hailing and over my head. Scott was super sensitive regarding the stress I was under. I called him back later & agreed to work with him. He emailed me our financial agreement.
I met with him the next day to pay him and we even planned a plan b. Less than a week later (2 days ago) i get an email saying my case was dismissed. He went to court for me & handled everything. I checked online by using my case number & confirmed it has been dismissed.
Thank you Scott for such a stress free experience!

***This is a review from someone else to protect their identity, but the person hired Scott and wanted me to post this review in lieu of that person so Scott has a growing good reputation on Unilocal***
First of all the city of Alameda needs to review their traffic light system. The driver was legitimately turning left onto a intersection and ran a yellow instead of a red when the camera went off. It isn’t the drivers fault that the light changes to RED so fast when the car was in mid intersection already. With that said, the camera went off and the ticket came.
Called up Scott Ball, explained the situation to him and he immediately told me what to do and what NOT to do. I was skeptical at first (not going to lie here) if he can even help me out. To me it was a gamble but I trusted him and let him do his job. At first on the initial conversation he felt a bit in a hurry and wasn’t sure if this was a good idea. My family members told me that no one hires a lawyer just for a traffic ticket but I went ahead and paid for his services, which was much cheaper than the ticket.
It takes a while for Scott to follow up (which made me nervous) but that’s because he waits for the right moment and the right person in court to fight for you. This is OK! Trust him even though you dont hear from him for a bit. He will file for any extension necessary so dont worry about the expiration date on the ticket.
All in all, he fought for me and got the ticket DISMISSED based on my situation. The most important thing here is, Scott will do his job and make your financial life less stressful. Yes, of course he will cost you a little bit but it’s better than the cost of the ticket the city will ask from you. I didn’t even regret the money I spent as I would rather pay Mr. Ball over the city ANY DAY!
With any lawyer, it’s always a gamble in reality but am so glad of the outcome and happy with Scott’s expertise and willingness to fight for you. Money saved, time saved, gas having to travel to court SAVED.
So ridiculous that the government relies on technology to catch honest and working citizens who honestly have done nothing wrong for their dollars. Go catch the real offenders for god sakes. Thank you Scott, will recommend to others in the area.

Probably one of the easiest lawyer I have ever dealt with. I made a right turn on a changing yellow to red light with a cop behind me. He gave me a ticket. I forgot about it and even forgot to go to court. A few months later I received a letter from DMV saying my license was suspended because of it and I needed to pay $ 860 and do traffic school.
I called up Scott because of his previous Unilocal reviews. Talked to him for maybe 15 mins. Gave him my info and he looked up my red light ticket. He said I had a good chance of getting it dismissed but I may need to still pay the penalty because I did a no show to my original court date. He told me his approach and how much it cost (priced reasonably). I said lets do it and gave him my card number over the phone.
A few days later he sent me an email saying he went to court and did his thing and got my license reinstated. They gave me a court date a few weeks out for the actual ticket. He said he will go on my behalf and work his magic. Today (my court date) he sent me a follow up email saying everything went well and my case was dismissed. Didn’t have to pay any other fees or anything.
Great communication
Easy to work with
Did exactly what he said he would
Will use him every time.
I know we may win some and lose some. But I definitely trust his knowledge and approach. If I didn’t win, I’d know for certain it wasn’t possible to win.

It was a dark and stormy night, lights flashed behind me and I was pulled over for doing absolutely nothing wrong. Got a ticket for crossing a white line that doesn’t exist. Ticket is for $ 500.
Scott went to court for me I think twice and got my ticket dismissed. Through the process, Scott kept me up to date regarding current situation and next step.
This was back in 2014 so review is long over due.

Ticket Dismissed!!! What else can I say! Me and my wife are beyond happy and grateful for Scott’s service. Scott took time to speak to us about the case, answered every email on the same day it was sent, and was calm and reassuring throughout the process. Scott made no guarantees other than he would fight diligently on our behalf, and judging by the result, he did just that. Thank you Scott, if we ever need these type of services again, we know exactly who we are going to call.
Thank you again,
Glenn and Andrea

There are hundreds of excellent attorneys in Orange County, so what sets Scott apart? His dedication to his clients and his excellent communication. As many have already pointed out, he will be straight with you and will tell you what may or may not happen with your ticket. He will provide periodic emails so that you will be kept up to date with the latest information.
You might be skeptical. I was too. How could a Traffic Ticket Defense Lawyer have a 5 star rating with 100+ reviews? Check out his website. Call him. Let him handle your defense. And once it’s all said and done, you’ll be leaving him a 5 star review too.

The reviews do not lie. Scott is the real deal. I received a red light camera ticket in the mail. Scott was very professional and up front about everything from the start. He was in regular contact with me throughout the process. His fee is very reasonable compared to what the City/​County wants to charge you. My case was rightly dismissed, and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Scott to everyone and anyone for his legal expertise. Do not pay that ticket! Call Scott!

He will make it right or at least do his best for you. One can’t ask for anything more.

I was referred to Scott.
He is simple, strait to the point, and pleasant to speak with.
I had bad luck 3 tickets within two months of 2014, all adding up to at least $ 1400. He made no guarantees, but when I asked him the likelihood of how each ticket would turn out, he was as honest as possible, which I wanted.
One of the tickets was a red light camera ticket. I received this ticket in Nov 2014. He emailed me explaining all the tickets I had were dismissed in the beginning 2015. However, It is now Nov 2015, and I received a notice in the mail charging me for the ticket I thought was already taken care of. It doesn’t seem for Scott to be forgetful about informing a client, because I can def say he seems very meticulous about his cases. All I can say is something must’ve happened to where he wasn’t able to inform me the red light was only reduced with traffic school. I emailed him, about this and within an hour he called me right back. He apologized about what might have happened, and went strait to working on it again, telling me I won’t have to worry about it.
Although this small mistake happened, Scott did what any GREAT service man would do to fix an honest mistake, took my problem and made it his to solve. This right here is GREAT service. I will be referring him to everyone and anyone. He’s awesome.
I never had to worry about my tickets once I chose to work with him. He emailed me when he will be showing up to court, and then emailed me the outcome (which always came out great).
Great job Scott. We need more people like you!

First of all, I have to start with by telling you that Scott Ball made no guarantees. You should be wary of any attorney that does. He was responsive to all my email and phone inquiries and was very professional. When I first contacted him, he asked me about my case and I was straight forward with him. I ran the red light, it’s on video and theres no denying that I was behind the wheel. How can he help I asked. He said that there was a lot that he can challenge. Does the picture look like you? Was the setting of when the camera determined that I ran the red light correct? Was it recently calibrated, if at all. He stated that there were a lot of technicalities that he could challenge. He asked for my case number and he reviewed the video footage and said that he thinks he can help me. Once again, no guarantees.
Well, I lost the case. Like I said, I ran the red light and how do you challenge video evidence? Scott followed up by calling me on the phone, explained in detail how he challenged the officer who showed up on behalf of the red light camera that actually issued my citation. It sucks that I lost but like I said, Scott never guaranteed a favorable outcome. I knew the risk and I lost. I will call Scott again if I get another ticket.
