Was in the process of hiring Ms. Banks to handle our case due to a so called mortgage law firm stating they would refinance our house. We paid them $3900 and they never contacted our bank. Unfortunately, we lost our house, because we contacted her to late; however we did get our money back, the lawy...er has been disabled and we are part of a class action suit with the feds. She is very caring, and knowledgeable; a very effective trial lawyer. I believe, its because she really cares about you personally and fights like a prize boxer in the court room for you.

What do my title mean? An active lawyer. I've work with many lawyers and they claimed being on my case. Later,I found it to be untrue. Being active means being a listener of my entire situation and following through with actions. Ms. Banks work my case as if it was her only case. I know that she had... many more cases. I've witness her having two to three cases a week but never lost track of my case. Her prices was very reasonable and fair. She handled my custody case with common sense and her knowledge of the law. We all know that custody cases can be very emotional. Ms. Banks comforted me with her approach and her powerful presence. Her professionalism and her ability to access my case on what direction it needed to go was like a movie. Ms Sequitta Banks is very passionate about her work as a lawyer and operates in the court of law like Mike Jordan handle his business on the basketball court. She comforted me in my case because I saw her working my case gracefully. Many lawyers lack making it look easy. Ms Sequitta Banks has the swag that many lawyers work hard to get. She also help me become knowledgeable of my case and answer questions that concern me. I would recommend Ms. Sequitta Banks to anyone.

I have worked with multiple attorneys while trying to establish custody of my daughter and have her name legally changed. I was dealing with a Father who was in another state and over time the goal had become impossible. I was very disappointed and hopeless to say the least... until I met Mrs. Banks.... Our initial consult went very well. She listened, asked questions and within 30 minutes told me that she would help me get this done. I believe that most attorneys were resistant because of the work involved and the unfamiliar boundaries this would entail. Sequitta Banks was very different. She said that she had never dealt with a situation like this, but was not apprehensive about giving it a "Go". I knew when I hung up the phone that I had finally found the one that would see this through. Her energy, passion and commitment was evident during this call and stayed persistent throughout our work together. She was extremely responsive, never letting a day go by without responding to an email or a phone call. She kept me informed the entire time letting me know the progress being made on the back end. When we got together to prepare for the court date- It was very obvious that she did all necessary research on her end and was completely "ready". When we showed up to the hearing- Sequitta Banks brought her "A" game to say the least. I was always concerned that my attorney would not truly "get" the circumstances and really understand where I was coming from. During the trial, when it was time for Sequitta to question my ex, she stood up and said "No questions your honor". I about fell off my chair in shock. Like... after all this- you are not going to grill him... I was beyond confused?? After the ruling (which was in my favor), we were walking out and I said- Why did you make that choice? She told me that through all of our conversations- she knew that the man that we were dealing with was a manipulator and she decided to not give him one extra opportunity to try and sway the Judge. This was genius to me. It was confirmed then and there that - Yes, she did truly understand. I hugged Mrs. Banks as we walked out and she seemed as genuinely excited as I was, for she knew the weight that this carried for me. If you watch Scandal then you will understand this- Sequitta Banks is DC's "real" Olivia Pope! If you don't watch- this just means that she is the one that you have been looking for!! :)
