WE WILL FIGHT FOR YOU!​

"Melton and Kristi not only cut me a major break with getting things settled. But have been very transparent with me on how the legal process work and fought hard to get me help with my situation. They have also helped my grandmother in the past with her accident case as well. Even despite my case being tough and long fight they made sure to keep me updated with everything and made sure to answer any questions that I had at a timely manner. I would recommend anyone seeking help with an accident lawsuit to come to this business. I am happy with my results and am happy that this long 2 year process is finally over"

"Milton and his associates at Hardball Law guided me through a very difficult divorce. I was completely lost and had little hope of an equitable outcome at the beginning. Now that it is over and I am as whole as I possibly can be it is clear how much they did for me. I highly recommend them and thank them for all that they did for me."

"I was seriously assault in 2013, with more than 9 years of the Defendant’s attorney dragging things slowly along. I faced a jury trial in 2023, which lasted 3 days. Melton and Erin held fast and strong and we were successful in winning the case. Prevailing over the Manatee County School Board. I met Melton Little who was my attorney on previous case, also with a positive outcome. Thank you, Melton and Erin and all those on your staff that helped with this case over the last nine+ years. May the sun shine upon you, may the Lord always Bless you and your staff. Thank You, Katrina Christensen"

"The limited representation of this firm from Melton Little was a miracle. I learned that his very name is well known across the eather of family law, and it enblodened access to a fair legal treatment by opposing counsel.

And the name HARDBALL LAW was reflected with utmost integrity and spirit, which has now produced a new chapter for a father and son relationship. Mr. Little is the most qualified attorney out there! There is nobody out there more driven, knowledgeable & effecient.. an expert at figuring out what an outcome of a case can be. And I gave him.. almost zero time - 1week before an ensuing trial where I was going to be picked apart unfairly by an opposing counsel. There was right and wrong clearly written on the wall of this case. I was not perfect in my persuits, but it all changed when I met Melton.

I am the father of a 3 1/2 year old. I was alienated from my son! And at the brink of the last "hail mary" I was asking anyone and everyone for help in representing me. THEN, I heard it from a friend from work... Call HARDBALL LAW!!! Folks; if this was a 7game of a baseball series; I was in the bottom of the 9th innining with 2outs, 3balls & 2strikes, with 3games downs facing elimination. Melton Little turned this around ASAP. I owe him for helping me salvage the most important thing in my life. And I will happily refer this law firm to anyone looking for proper legal help. I plan I using HARBALL LAW for anything within their legal practice. It's a no nonsense experience!"

"When you’re at your lowest and looking for help, the last thing you want to worry about is whether you have the right person in your corner. I’m extremely grateful to Attorney Melton for his kindness and assertiveness when it was needed the most. As a physician, integrity is the most important quality to me and Attorney Melton embodies that. Thank you for everything."
