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. She not only sympathize with my situation, she made it better. She is busy in court a lot, which I thought was a good sig...n, but she always returned my calls and emails. My husband thought he would take everything, but he was wrong. Because of Ms. Banks efforts I won custody of my children, got s substantial amount of child support and every portion I was entitled to out of the marriage. If you are looking for a hard working lawyer that will fight for you, choose Ms. Banks.

Nothing but praises to sing about Ms. Banks!

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.

Amazing

OMG where do I start......This lady goes above and beyond to get things done. She treats your case as if she was in your shoes. She always keeps you in the loop and is very organized. I went through a weird custody battle with my son's father and we had a great outcome. Mrs. Banks is definantly well ...worth every penny and she is extremely resonable. If you are going through a custody battle wether you are the mother or father, I would highly recommend Mrs. Banks. I am extremely happy with our outcome and how great of an attorney she has been. A+++++ :)

Season 1 your case can be a Season

Mrs. Sequitta Banks made my fiancé and I students of her way of handling a case. Yes, it was our case but she made it her own. We had projects and things to find out concerning our case. She taught us how to own our case and know it like the palm of our hands. We had to do our research and implement ...the things discovered on the other party. Mrs. Sequitta Banks kept us honest and diligent. She is the Viola Davis in real life. Her heart showed that she's not on retirement like most lawyers.(Working to drain you of your money) It was an honor to be a student of Mrs. Sequitta Banks. If you do your homework and be diligent you could probably win your case. Though all cases are different. You still have to do your homework on your own case. Take this from us who got exactly everything we wanted. We won our case so we might get an A+ from Mrs. Sequitta Bank. So your reflection of Mrs. Sequitta Banks is an reflection of how good of a student you can be. Thank you so very much Mrs. Banks. God bless you and your family

A True Gladiator!!

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!! :)
