An ethically upstanding Lawyer!

I know--that title seems paradoxical! But it fits in the case of David Banks. He assisted me with filing an RTO in a very contentious domestic partner situation. He held to the highest ethical standards, was professional, knowledgeable, sage, and calm (dealing with difficult issues). Best of all,... he got the job done and was refreshingly mindful of keeping costs contained. I recommend him without reservation.

One if the Good Guys in the Legal Profession

David Banks is one of the good guys in the legal profession. I was referred to him by a friend whose divorce he handled. My friend was quite satisfied with the way David handled his case and recommended him to me. David handed my case with intelligence, ethics and high morals. My case should have be...en a simple one, however my ex continued to be uncooperative with her attorney as well as the court which resulted in multiple court appearances. At all times, David conducted himself with the utmost professionalism and a commanding knowledge of the law. David always did whatever he could to save me money where he could, which I greatly appreciated. He never wasted my time or my money. In the end, I did prevail, due to David's ability and skills to lay out a clear and concise case for the court. Unfortunately, my daughter is now going through a divorce. I recommended she hire David Banks, which she did, and to my knowledge, she is quite pleased at how he is handling her case. But here's the kicker......when my daughter told her Mother that she was getting a divorce, my ex said, "You ought to hire David Banks" I recommend David Banks without reservation.

David for Divorce

David handled my divorce after a long marriage and did an excellent job. He was knowledgeable about how the court would view things as well as the proclivities of opposing counsel. I appreciated his solid background which enabled me to know where I stood throughout the process. He eventually was a...ble to resolve the dissolution through a Settlement Agreement and was conscious of controlling costs throughout. I would definitely recommend him as a family law lawyer.
