Hardball Law is pleased to announce Attorney Melton Little has been accepted as one of the nominees for prestigious recognition from the American Institute of Legal Counsel. On an annual basis, the American Institute’s Personal Injury Division accepts nominations for 10 Best Personal Injury Law Attorneys by State.
For an attorney to be considered for this recognition, a rigorous process is followed which includes:
- Nominations must come from a client, peer, or the Institute

Their expectation is potential clients will be able to review the nominees and winners of this recognition within their state and allow the client to make the best possible choices for legal counsel for their specific needs.
