Donald J. Banovitz

I worked with Mr. Banovitz on my personal injury case. I had never done anything like this before and was quite nervous and had a ton of questions. He was very informative right from the befinning and put my mind at ease. He was readily available when ever I needed him or had further questions. He ch...ecked In with me often to see how I was feeling and what my progress was on getting better and back to normal. He was very knowledgable and very proficient. I had a very desirable outcome with my case. Mr. Banovitz is a very skilled lawyer that I would highly recommend.

"I have had the privilege of working with DJ Banovitz helping him create educational messages to teach and educate his ideal clients. He is an avid skier and a dedicated attorney who cares deeply about his injured clients. He created a series of educational messages in order to teach and educate his ideal consumers and ideal clients in order for them to learn things they were interested in. Those messages gave his ideal clients an opportunity to understand how the legal process in Colorado works and to recognize that DJ has great content and information in order to help injured victims in Colorado. In my opinion, one of the best ways to stand out from the crowd and get your consumers to know you, like you and begin to trust you before they ever meet you is to create the type of educational messages that DJ created. Great content and information. That's exactly what you want in a compassionate and dedicated professional like DJ."

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I am writing to give my highest recommendation to D J Banovitz. Mr. Banovitz is a highly skilled personal injury trial lawyer and is the "go-to" lawyer to handle a substantial and complex personal injury case in the Denver area. I was fortunate to have Mr. Banovitz practice with me in North Carolina during 2003 and 2004. While he was with me he achieved spectacular results for our clients. He knows how to talk to insurance adjusters to get the best results possible. He has the respect of the insurance defense lawyers and because of this respect, he is able to achieve for his clients the best results possible. Mr. Banovitz will work hard for you and will bring all of his skills and resources to bare in his full effort to obtain for you an adequate recovery."

He offers a ton of free information and I would highly recommend that you at least contact him and his firm and get his free information before making any decision as to which personal injury attorney to hire. You will not have wasted your time."

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.
