Douglas A. Ball, Attorney at Law

Divorce
Ohio divorce law calls for an equitable distribution of the wealth a couple has accumulated during marriage. This can be tricky and contentious, especially when spouses are jockeying for the same assets or cannot agree on the value of property.
Child Support
Ultimately, every situation is different, which is why it is always best to speak to an experienced child support and post-decree motion attorney to explore your rights and options. For your free initial consultation, call today or use our online form to tell us about your issue.
Child Custody and Visitation
Being arrested or convicted of a crime can have a significant impact on an individual's life, even after fulfilling their legal obligations. This can include difficulty obtaining employment, housing, child custody, or loans. Fortunately, there are legal options available to individuals who would like to have their records sealed or expunged.
Adoption
Thankfully, same-sex couples who are legally married can now adopt a child together in Ohio. In addition, same-sex couples who weren't lawfully married when they had their child may be eligible to obtain parental rights through stepparent adoption. This may involve filing a petition to adopt your spouse's child in probate court.
Paternity
The child support guidelines are a starting point. It may be appropriate to adjust the presumptive level, depending on the amount of parenting time and other expenses or needs of the child. Our role is to make sure that the court has accurate information about income and employment and to advocate for upward or downward departure from the guidelines when merited by the unique facts of your case. We handle child support in divorces and paternity cases, including negotiating of child support arrears.
Spousal Support
One question we commonly get from our divorce clients is how alimony, or spousal support, is calculated. The simple answer is that there is not an absolute formula used by the courts. The awarding of spousal support may vary from one county to the next, and from one judge to the next.
Child Abuse
Family law is a sweeping area of the law. Not only does it cover divorce and post-decree resolutions, but it also embraces juvenile delinquency and child neglect. Attorney Ball and team will treat each issue with the utmost sensitivity and understanding of the gravity of the situation facing your family.

Criminal Defense
A criminal conviction can not only lead to severe penaltiesâ€”including jail time, fines, and probationâ€”but it will also leave you with a criminal record that can last your lifetime. You need fiercely compassionate criminal defense representation.
DUI/DWI
Operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs (OVI/DUI) carries a variety of penalties that will adversely affect your life, your family, and your future. The consequences of a conviction may include jail time, large fines, a criminal record, license suspension or revocation, mandatory treatment, special license plates or ignition interlock, and even forfeiture of your vehicle.
Wrongful Death
If a loved one, such as a spouse, child, or parent, has been killed in a car accident, you may be able to file a wrongful death claim under Ohio law. In addition to lost wages, medical expenses, and pain and suffering, you may be able to seek damages for loss of future earnings, loss of companionship and possible loss of the inheritance you would have received had the family member lived a natural life.
Sex Crimes
Rape or sexual assault. Rape and sexual assault are both serious crimes and can lead to severe legal consequences for the perpetrator if they are found guilty in court. If you have been accused of rape or sexual assault, itâ€™s important that you seek professional legal help right away so that your rights are fully protected. A conviction for rape or sexual assault carries much more negative consequences than just a protection order being filed against you.
Fraud
Robbery
Burglary
If you are suspected of or charged with a theft or burglary, it is in your best interest to fight the allegations or "make it go away." That is where Douglas A. Ball, Attorney at Law, can help. Our legal team provides experienced criminal defense in Clermont County and nearby communities of Ohio.
White Collar Crimes
While every case is unique, one thing remains the same â€• our commitment to helping our clients deal with the stress and uncertainty of criminal charges. Our reputation for achieving favorable outcomes is well-known throughout the community. Our clients also appreciate that we take the time to explain their rights and options so they can participate in their own defense and make informed decisions.
Theft
Misdemeanors
Douglas A. Ball handles misdemeanor and felony charges in Batavia, Clermont County, and the surrounding Ohio communities. He will fight unfounded or inflated allegations and work to mitigate the penalties of a plea or conviction.
Embezzlement
Drug Crimes
Being charged with a drug crime can be an intimidating experience, especially if you attempt to go it alone. Fortunately, Douglas A. Ball, Attorney at Law, and his legal team are here to help.
Assault
Assault charges may or may not result in jail time. You may be ordered by the court to attend anger management or substance abuse treatment. You may be kicked out of your own home and prevented from seeing your own children. You may be prohibited from possessing firearms. The conviction may scare off potential employers.
Murder
However, Ohio law does allow convicted juveniles to get their records expunged. Under state law, juvenile records can be both expunged and sealed, though certain offenses are not eligible for expungement (e.g. rape, murder, and aggravated murder).
Juvenile Crimes
If your son or daughter has been arrested and you need to speak to an experienced juvenile law attorney, contact Douglas A. Ball, Attorney at Law, and our team in Batavia. We have a proven record of assisting young individuals with criminal allegations and keeping them out of serious trouble. We take great pride in providing our clients with skilled and knowledgeable legal representation, particularly when the client is a child.
Identity Theft
Homicide
Injury or fatality â€” A drunk driving accident resulting in serious bodily injury or death may be prosecuted as a serious felony crime (vehicular assault/homicide).
Shoplifting
Restraining Order
Have you been served with a restraining or protection order in Ohio? Or is someone threatening to file a restraining order against you? If you answered â€œ

Personal Injury
If you have been injured in a personal injury accident â€” or a loved one has been killed through the negligence of others â€” you may be entitled to compensation under Ohio law, including damages for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Medical Malpractice
Some other wrongful death acts, such as medical malpractice, have much shorter statutes of limitations. Further, much work needs to be done to evaluate and prepare a case before the statute of limitations runs. Often an insurance company will act like they are going to settle up until close to the running of the statute of limitations knowing that it is hard to get an attorney to take a case when the statute of limitations is close to running out. Therefore, it is important to contact an attorney right after an accident or claim to assure that you get the advice needed to protect and preserve your claim.
