He was spot on

He represented me in my divorce case and was thorough and helped me out. It was costly but anything cheap you get poor results he was worth the money

No service rendered

I've paid Mr Bankowitz $5000 cash to work on my brother's case that he promised he could handle. After he received the full amount, he refuses to return calls or messages. It has been 2 years. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone.

Saved my life

Frank saved my life. Thank you for assisting me in my time of need several years ago. I have turned my life around and thanks to you I am still here to spend time with my family. Frank Bankowitz always did me right and fought hard for a young mans freedom. Thank you again

screwed me out of 8,500.00

I used him 3 times 2 times he was ok. the third he totally screwed me . he was paid in full to clear a .criminal record , called a 3850. and demanded the money be paid up front $9,000.00 ... He filed the paperwork. and said the judge denied it. i asked him for a refund, he said no. i figure filein...g the paperwork was worth 500.00 NOT 9,000.00. So im out 8,500.00 ....
