I have over eighteen years of experience in family law and civil litigation. I'm very passionate about the law because it directly impacts families and children during the most difficult times of they lives.
I obtained my law degree from the George Washington School of Law and undergraduate degree (honors) from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). I am an advocate for victims of domestic abuse, and trained in handling domestic violence issues.
I am also a Supreme Court appointed Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) for children in Virginia.
I volunteer for the Inova Fairfax Hospital and Women's Shelters, and devote part of my time to pro bono representation.

No Representation

Justice at Last
Ms. Banks represented me in a highly contested divorce, child custody, child visitation and a child support case. I knew from the beginning that she was the perfect lawyer for me.
