Wow
I have used Mr. Banks law group 3 times for family court. Each time I did have a different lawyer representing me from the law group, but they were all absolutely amazing. I never have been in legal trouble before my divorce and I felt like a criminal going through the process. Mr. Banks and his team wiped that feeling away and gave me a voice. His staff is very helpful, and always pleasant. In a five star review they get 10 stars. His experience, dedication priceless.

Very satisfied
We hired Mr.Banks and we are so thankful that we did! My husband had an arrest that we needed help with. My husband and I were very upset and nervous of possible outcome. At 1st hearing he made us feel very at ease and not embarassed. All went well and the communication throughout this process has been, and is continuing to be, amazing. Questions about paperwork and calls are answered/returned immediately. (Sometimes within minutes) Ashley is an amazing asset to the office because she is thorough and the follow up is exceptional. They are patient with calling around his demanding work schedule which is much appreciated. We will use again if ever in need and recommend for sure. THANKS for all you are doing to help us put this behind us.

A+ Lawyer, Highly Recommended!!!!!!
I had a run in with the law for the first time in my life a few months back in April. I contacted Matthew about it and he went out of his way to call me at the first chance he had since he was on vacation. From there, he assured me that everything was going to be alright and that he will guide me through the process. Throughout the process, that is exactly what he did. To have a lawyer that is there the minimal is one thing, but to have a lawyer like Matthew there by your side all the way to the end is why I would highly recommend Matthew and the Banks Law Group!!!

Professional Excellence
Attorney Banks was very helpful during this trying time and was able to get the results we hoped. He was able to simplify and explain the legal process as we progressed. He was able to guide me in what to do if there were any problems with the other party throughout the legal process. He was very knowledgeable and confident in his ability to perform in the legal system.

Very Grateful
I had met Attorney Matthew Banks when he was just starting out. I didn't know him as a lawyer, but as a customer at where I worked. I switched jobs and hadn't talked to him in years. But when my teenage son got him self in some trouble he is who I thought of to call. Now since I had last talked to Attorney Banks, he had built up his firm quite substantially. I thought for sure he would just assign my case to another lawyer in his firm. I mean the case was a big deal to me because it was my son but it was nothing that was news worthy or very interesting. Yet he called me back directly, said he would take my case. The communication from his office is outstanding. I never had to call again, they reached out to me, multiple times. Kept me up to date with every step of my sons case. Charmaine and Ashley are definitely assets to Banks Law Firm. They emailed me or called and helped me with any questions or to remind me of upcoming court dates. Attorney Matthew Banks showed up for all the court dates and you could just tell at the Reading Court House that he had gained a lot of respect from all the staff including other laywers and Judges. He also took the time to talk to my son, give him advice and direction. I hope I am never in need of an attorney again, but I feel very thankful knowing that I would be in such good hands. I will of course be recommending Attorney Banks and his staff to everyone I know.

Very attentive and cares
During your primary phone call with Attorney Banks, expect to immediately feel comfortable with his advice. He is attentive and cares about your needs. He gives strong and note worthy advice that makes an impact. He is great with follow up and his fees are fair. Words cannot express how thankful I am to him. One of the best, truly.

Divorce case
This law firm is worth the money for a divorce. They had to search for the soon to be ex-husband. They're very through and professional. I'd recommend them to anyone who needs a lawyer for anything especially a divorce.

Best of the best
Dear Attorney Banks, My son, Joshua, had asked me to write you on his behalf. He just wanted to say thank you for everything your law firm did for him for all his cases. He especially wanted me to let you know that he felt Attorney Harakal went above and beyond for him at times. Attorney Harakal was on top of every case Josh had. He made many phone calls, court dates got changed ( a lot) and Josh was going from one jail to another. He worked with the advocate from the VA for Josh. Attorney Harakal always made time for me when I called on behalf of Josh ( and I called a lot!) He went to see Josh in jail, to make sure Josh understood what was going on. Both Josh and I have recommended your law firm to anyone who asks us if we know a good lawyer. Thanks to Attorney Harakal, Josh will be going back down to the VA on May 15, 2017, and getting into the PTSD program that he desperately needs. Thank you.

MATTHEW BANKS IS MONEY IN THE BANK! :-)
I can't express how grateful I am to have had Attorney Banks as my lawyer. Believe it or not, I actually was innocent. This is when you need a lawyer most, because they need to prove it in court. Wouldn't you believe that the judge actually believed the Plaintiff and DA, accepted evidence that was inaccurate...at first. Thankfully, I had Matthew Banks on my side. He cross examined the Plaintiff for 45 minutes, making a fool of them and their false allegations. He saved me from going to jail because he had the skills to do so! I wouldn't recommend anybody else but Matthew Banks to represent someone in court. I feel very safe and confident with the Banks Law Group.

Awesome guy and lawyer!
Mr. Banks took the time to make sure I understood and agreed to everything happening in my case. He made me feel comfortable in a very uncomfortable situation. He's a great lawyer and a great guy. Its clear he enjoys what he does and puts all his effort and skill into every case, even a trivial one. I would highly recommend him to anybody needing a lawyer in the future.

Best Ever!
My name is Chris and I am a Father of 3 beautiful children. After thier mother and I split, she took the children to PA. Her family is wealthy and paid for her legal fees and used the system to delay me getting joint custody of the children. Attorney Banks was able to help me secure my right to joint legal custody. He and his wonderful staff are extremely knowledgable, easy to work with and made me feel like my case was the Banks Team top priority. Attorney Banks was also very skillful in the courtroom. I strongly recommend him to anyone in need of fantasy lawyer and especially a person who has family law needs. I have worked with many attorneys in the past and he is simply THE BEST EVER!

The Best Divorce Lawyer!
I was going through a long divorce with another attorney who I felt was not on my side. I was told by a friend to speak to Matt Banks so I did. He consulted me and explained every detail to me. Matt advised me in all the right ways. He really had my best interest and turned things around in a timely fashion getting me results that were above and beyond my expectations! He guided me to a successful end of a bad situation. I highly recommend him and can say he is an Outstanding lawyer! Top in his field.

Matthew Banks will always have deepest gratitude.
I never thought that I would find myself in trouble with the law. Being accused of a crime that I knew I was not guilty of, is still at the end of the day, a crime I was charged with. I was, and am very naïve about the law today. If you think that you understand the law because you watch crime shows on T.V. believe me you are mistaken. If you are in trouble, there is no one that could represent you better then Matthew Banks. Matthew is a very down to earth man who listened to me and represented me with the professionalism and skill that got positive results, and in the end, got my charge dismissed. If I would ever need an attorney in the future, there is no doubt, I would call Matthew Banks to represent me. He has my heartfelt thanks and my highest recommendation.

Matt really helped me out in my time of need
I was being scammed by someone who claimed to be the IRS and I knew NOTHING about the allegations and these people said there were charges against me and warrants out for my arrest so I called Matt and asked him to help me out and see if this was real and he helped me out so much and proved it to me that if was a fake thing and that the entire thing was a scam and he used all of his available resources to put me at ease and help me throughout the whole ordeal and I would highly recommend him to ANYONE who needs help getting out of a bind, especially one where you are unaware and need legal advice or representation.
