Great results

Nothing but good things to say bout Banks. Every one on the staff is always there to help with my case, and the results are always and have been since day one in my favor. Best decision I have made in a long time.

Hire this guy if you want a good result!

Mr. Banks has made my husband's incredibly frustrating, painful work injury and subsequent situation very bearable. He is very thorough and precise in detailing the facts and steps toward a good result; which is what he accomplished. We are very happy with his work as well as the work of his caring, ...upbeat staff. He's simply the best!

Best decision I made in a long time

I reinjured my back at a company I worked for and they try to deny me workman's comp. After calling mr. Banks his friendly staff walk me through the process. And after all the sudden done I walked away a happy customer. I would refer everyone and anyone to his Law Firm.

Erica Burry and Angela Carbone

I was injured after working in the same facility for 20 years. The facility was sold severe times. Our residents started to be called customers. When i was injured by a customer, i was treated by their comp Doctors and my symptoms were ignored for 3 months. Administration was ignoring me, making me ...feel that i was not being truthful. I repeated to anyone that would listen that my shoulder felt as if it was hanging.I went to Dr.Ruggiero MD Orthopedic Surgeon Malvern, PA. I was diagnosed w a Lt shoulder 3/4 Labrum tear and a severe rotator cuff tear, that needed surgical repair. Dr Ruggiero referred Erica Burry for my case. I am very pleased with the hard work Erica Burry and Angela Carbone did for me. They are a great team, my company can be so ruthless. Any problems Angela e-mails back with very little wait time. Whatever problem i have is immediately initiated. I have no worries, and completely know i'm in the best hands possible.

Excellent...

I was referred by a family friend to Mr. Banks in a time of need, and have nothing but good things to say about all of the help and time he and his staff have devoted to my situation. What a great team!

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.
