"I was represented by Lorenzo Banks in 2023 for my divorce. It was going fine and I was actually excited. Then I was notified that he will no longer represent me and Ryan Gillett took over my case. It was a disaster, he was not prepared, he told me certain things wouldn’t matter but it definitely did, he had no defense for me and while sitting next to him all he could talk about is picking up his kids. Also they charged me for sending me my final divorce decree. I spent close to 10k just to turn around find a different attorney who pointed out all the things they did wrong and should’ve done. Save your money and go somewhere else."

"Lorenzo Banks — forgot he represented Brittane Grant (classmate). Instead of him telling me that he didn’t want to represent me due to a conflict, he gave me inflated prices and stated that Judge Bondurant didn’t have grounds to award my emergency order of protection. He said a judge doesn’t have grounds… HUGE RED FLAG. I received his referral from another attorney and I failed to cross check him. Lorenzo Banks lacks integrity and will not be honest with you when communicating with you about your cases. In some cases exercises neoptism. He will also go against what a judge orders… as he kept telling me that my case was improper! We consult with attorneys for help not to be told over and over again what we should’ve done in a petition. Proceed with caution, especially if you are a woman and/or person of minority descent. He is another one of those attorneys who use his black face in the community but doesn’t really care about you, your safety, or the integrity of your case. But, he will take your money!"

"I hired Lorenzo Banks as my attorney for my divorce. I just come out of homelessness with three children after my husband locked us out of our home. There was abuse and violence in my particular court case. Lorenzo took my money, and did nothing for me. He didn’t even respond to the petition forward to divorce that was given to me. He never filed any emotions or anything on my case. It was all the other party. He strong my K so long spending that money while leaving me running in place. He sent me two invoices out of my whole retainer one for $100, and another one for $900, and then came around and said that I only had $49 left. Lorenzo is an ethical, he curses like a sailor, and it’s not respectful to who he’s talking to. If you are a woman stay clear of using his services because he is all for the other side and men.. The only time he did show up for a court case of mine, which was on July 7, 2023, he showed up late and very unprepared. In addition to that he talked to my soon to be ex-husband and his attorney the three of them as if they were all buddies. I’ve come to find out that he’s had a conflict of interest with my soon to be ex-husband‘s family and my ex-husband. He also was concerned about being like to by the other side. Do not use him, in addition, he has unethical practices as he exchanges sexual favors for attorney fees. This is from a woman who was another client of his. Steer clear of this law office. He left me in the middle of my case, with nothing done in a position to possibly lose it all. He never filed in emotions on my VPO violations , or any petitions or motions concerning my soon to be ex-husband’s lack of following the temporary order on visitation. He did nothing for my case, but string me along. He left me stranded with three children going through domestic violence."
