"I have been wanting to do this review for a while, because Mr. Balli and his law firm deserve it. I don't know how much it will help Mr. Balli, but I hope it helps you. If you ever find yourself in a tough situation Mr. Balli is the best in Laredo and like my husband says he's a beast. That is what you need a beast; not scared to go up in front of the judge or jury. He will do everything he can legally to defend you as much as viable. You have to be patient and mentally strong. Just know that he can not give you updates every week, but when the time comes to represent you he will. My husband was initially looking at forty years and was sentenced to two years. I would definitely rehire Mr. Balli and his law firm to represent us, because he has great knowledge in the law and knows how to apply it to his client's needs."

"The worst attorney in town very very rude and never call you for any updates.when you call he yelled at you and gets upset for asking questions. He is always in a very bad mood. Even if that’s his job to do so. I don’t understand why he pick this job if he get upset when you call to get information of the client. The one thing that really got me mad was he was literally Screaming at me and yelling it’s was like two lady’s fighting lol. How weird that ppl on the news or tv seems nicer but in reality they are not the same in person. I definitely don’t recommend him . This is just my opinion!"
