THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

I had an ongoing issue for years and as soon as I contacted the office, Attorney banks IMMEDIATELY went to "attorney mode". :-) After a brief consultation and advised of my options (this is KEY; he informed me of the legal consequences of my cases!!) he worked on my behalf. After several weeks of... research and sending documents, he ultimately had my cases dismissed!! Attorney banks was never late to court (in fact, I was running late and made sure I was coming!!) Showed up for me, responded to all my inquiries, and never missed a beat! Big Kudos to Attorney banks and his team!!!!! I and my family appreciate you!

F1 to ARD

Before being represented by Mr Banks I had a different attorney who led me in the complete wrong direction and who didn’t even take the time to show up for any of my court dates. Upon reaching out to Mr Banks he contacted me the same evening and was always timely on communication and answered any and... all questions. He was very patient with me and my uneasiness from the bad experience prior to him. He went to great lengths to assure I got the outcome I was hoping for. I appreciated his professionalism and dependability. The communication from him and his team was beyond anything I could have hoped for. He took my felony 1 burglary charge and got me ARD. I am forever grateful and recommend Mr Banks for anyone in need of a great attorney.

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 A...ttorney 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.

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.
