I was born and raised in California. I received my undergraduate degree from UC San Diego and my law degree from Golden Gate University in San Francisco. I moved to Seattle upon graduation and became a member of the Washington Bar Association, and practiced family law in the Seattle area for five years before relocating back home to California. I have been practicing family law in Chico since 2004.
In addition to practicing law, I also taught "Community Property Law" at Cal Northern School of Law in Chico for several years.
I am a member of the California Bar Association, Washington State Bar Association, and Butte County Bar Association.
When not practicing law, I enjoy spending time with my two children, fishing, hiking, and traveling internationally in search of amazing food.

Outstanding Legal Services
I hired Mr. Banks to represent me in my divorce. Along the way, my divorce became unexpectedly complicated and litigious. I am impressed with Mr. Banks' manner of resolving the issues that arose.

David Banks is one of the good guys in the legal profession. I was referred to him by a friend whose divorce he handled.
