I went to see Mr. Davis for an estate plan. I was very pleased with his explanations and the time he took to make sure I understood the process.

Derek Anthony Davis's Lawyer Endorsements
"I shadowed Derek on several of his cases in order for me to earn my certification for court appointments. Derek is not only a great mentor and teacher, but he is a phenomenal advocate. Derek goes the extra mile for his clients in explaining their rights, the court process, preparing them for trial, addressing questions and concerns, and fighting for the best possible outcome. Derek is a true professional; he is punctual, thorough, and respectful. I recommend Derek A. Davis unreservedly."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse Attorney Davis. I have worked with him in the past as both a supervisor and a peer. I believe he really enjoys what he does and works extremely hard for his clients. I would, and have, referred clients to him without any reservation."
"Besides attending law school with Derek, I have specifically referred a number of matters to him, as well as received a few referrals from him as well. Derek has expertise and significant experience in the areas of family law, criminal law, and civil litigation, among many others. Additionally, his knowledge and influence in his local community allows him to provide the best services and outcomes to his clients. I highly recommend Derek as an attorney to defend and serve his client's best legal interests."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Davis interned for one of my former associates and provided assistance to my firm, including but not limited to legal research and preparation of office memorandums. Mr. Davis was very thorough, a quick study and a great work ethic. More importantly, Mr. Davis' strongest asset is his common sense approach and his down to earth personality."
"Derek worked as a law clerk with my firm during his final year at law school. He was not only incredibly bright, but his work ethic and reliability were downright exceptional. I would have brought on Derek as a full-time attorney in a heartbeat when he was admitted if he didn't have plans on returning back to Virginia! We have stayed in contact since he left Florida and often call each other for advice on our cases or to get additional thoughts on matters we're facing. I think very highly of Derek and would recommend him to anyone."
"Derek is hard-working attorney that treats everyone with respect."
"Mr. Davis is a fantastic attorney. Very knowledgeable and professional."
