Dedicated Legal Advocate Delivering Tailored Solutions

Stephanie M. Banks is a highly skilled and passionate civil litigation attorney at McGonigle Law, where she has played a vital role since joining the firm in January 2020. With a strong command of complex legal issues and a meticulous approach to case strategy, Stephanie represents clients in a wide range of litigation matters, including personal injury, legal malpractice, employment disputes, contract breaches, class actions, and mass torts. Her ability to seamlessly navigate both individual cases and high-volume litigation makes her an indispensable part of the firm’s legal team.

Stephanie’s practice includes handling cases from the initial stages of intake through trial preparation and resolution. She is proficient in all phases of litigation, including drafting and arguing motions, managing discovery, coordinating expert witnesses, and preparing clients for depositions and trial. Her precise legal writing, strategic mindset, and client-centered communication style consistently result in successful outcomes and high levels of client trust and satisfaction.

Stephanie is particularly experienced in employment law, having represented clients in cases involving wrongful termination, discrimination, retaliation, harassment, wage and hour violations, and whistleblower claims. She also serves as lead associate on several of the firm’s mass tort cases, advocating for groups of individuals harmed by corporate negligence or defective products. Her background in both individual and aggregate litigation gives her a unique ability to build strong cases on behalf of clients who often feel powerless when facing large institutions.

Before embarking on her legal career, Stephanie earned her undergraduate degrees in Criminal Justice and Communications from Arizona State University. She went on to earn her Juris Doctor from the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University, graduating with honors. While in law school, she was awarded the prestigious CALI Excellence for the Future Awards in both Contracts and Torts for achieving the highest grades in her class. Her academic success reflects her deep intellectual engagement with the law and her capacity for complex legal analysis.

Stephanie is licensed to practice law in both California and Arizona and is an active member of both state bars. She is known among clients and colleagues for her integrity, determination, and the personal attention she gives to each case. Stephanie takes pride in standing up for people whose voices might otherwise go unheard and brings a deep sense of purpose to her work at McGonigle Law.
