About Michael
Biography
I love fighting for people, and I hate bullies.
For the past 8 years, I have worked exclusively for injured people, standing up to insurance companies. I have recovered millions of dollars for hundreds of clients.
I have handled over a hundred arbitrations; dozens of bench trials, and several jury trials.
In 2013, I was on a team that received a $58.5 million dollar verdict.
When I'm not practicing law, I love hanging out with my family, playing music, and teaching ukulele.

"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Mike is a great lawyer. I trust him to make the right call. In fact, I used him with my own matter and he did an excellent job."
"Michael Banks is a trial lawyer, pure and simple. He tries cases. He enjoys trying cases. He has a sympathetic ear for the injured. He legitimately cares about his clients. Mike is well liked, even by the most extremely disingenuous attorneys in this state. I endorse Michael Banks."
