Pompous

Never introduced himself and barely looked at me during a lengthy discussion. Mr. Banks did succeed at making me feeling HORRIBLE and negligent by the time my interrogation was over.

Worker's Com

Due to the year 2015, I was injured at work. I found an attorney company named Bankslaw. Halmon Banks helped me with my case to get my worker's compensation done very professional. I would recommend him again. Thank you. My family can get by.

So much more than expected. Excellent Team

Banks Law was recommended to us by another law firm because we needed representation in worker compensation law. We thank our lucky stars. We cannot imagine a more knowledgeable, better informed, harder working or more respectful organization. From our initial meeting with Mr. Banks when he got to... understand out case and laid out for us what we could expect, through working with many members of his staff (and we have worked with several), we have been continually surprised at the amount of support offered by every member of the team whether it is during working hours or not. Searching for care providers, offering advice, or telling us what we can do on our own without needing an attorney's help were all done with quick response time, concern and helpfulness. The amount of respect with which each and every member of the Banks Law team treats its clients is a lost art, and they really look out for the well-being of their clients. I would not have had a clue how I was being cheated by my workers comp provider and would have lost my benefits completely if not for Banks Law. The quality and amount of work they do, and the results they get are certainly worth their fee. I give them the highest of recommendations.

mr.

Hal Banks and his staff are great. They were very prompt in getting back to me. They explained everything very clearly. I would highly recommend them. His assistant Angela Carbone was very nice and helpful.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
