Provided by YP.comWhen I went searching or a lawyer I could trust, I read as many reviews as I could about lawyers nearby me. I came across Chris Banas Law Firm and even though I read some.less than stellar reviews of him I gave him the benefit of the doubt and met with him. During the first meeting he sold himself has a aggressive lawyer who was on my side. He charges over $250 an hour and we asked him what would are case cost. He told us an amount and we told him that's all we could afford because we have 4 kids. He then took it upon himself to make extremely expensive and irresponsible decisions on my case without even getting my permission or even telling me he was doing this. My bill became triple the amount we were told and we haven't even went to court! He was very interested in keeping it out of court almost as if he was too busy or took scared to go to court. After I called his office in regards to the charges on my bill I told him I would like proof that you did some of the things on your bill. He told me he couldn't provide any proof because it was all verbal. What? A lawyer who knows things in writing are the only thing you can use in court and he couldn't provide any written proof he did any thing he was charging me for? Finally I told him to stop all.work on my case and stop all billing while my wife tried to figure out how to pay this insane bill. A month later he billed me again for work he apparently did even after we agreed he was to stop all work on my case. He provided me a credit on my bill while my ex wife and I settled it on our own, Chris and I agreed we we're "even" and my case has been closed over a month ago and now he sends me another bill! Please people this law firm's practices are border line illegal. I have noticed on other sites whenever a negative review is posted about Chris Banas he disputes it as posted by someone from the opposing party.. If he tries this I will be posting email/text/voicemail proof of all I say.
