Simply the best

Mr. Arneau Is a professional in every aspect of the word. He not only can deliver results in the court room, but has excellent bedside manners. He is easy to talk to and spends as much time as you need to explain things to you. He took a difficult situation and mitigated it down to almost no conseque...nces. I'll never use anybody else but Bill.

Could not have made a better choice!

What a blessing I encountered when I hired Bill as my attorney. I was in an embarrassing situation and had never needed a lawyer before. He was honest about what he could do and though he did not make any promises, the result was ultimately successful. I never felt uncomfortable asking for updates an...d truly knew he had my back. He supported me in every way and I can't express how thankful I am for his help.

Could not have asked for Better Representation

Bill helped me through a situation that could have been stressful and difficult. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable and gave me the confidence to stand up and tell my side of the story. If it had not been for his representation I know I would not have gotten the favorable outcome that I ...did. Every single time I called I got him on the phone so did not ever have to wait for a return call. He was very proactive in contacting me to let me know when court dates were. The other people in his office were extremely helpful as well. I could not have asked for a better experience and am thankful for all he did for me.

Super great attorney

William Arnau (bill) was an excellent attorney. Bill was always in top of my cases and never left me out out of detail going on. I was always well informed and he always fought to get me a better outcome. Would only go to bill for now on.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I met Bill initially when I was asked to mentor him as a fellow prosecutor with the Office of the State Attorney. I quickly discovered that Bill was a gifted attorney; bright, personable, and practical. During his time as a Prosecutor, Bill was a zealous advocate for justice, whether that meant arguing for a prison sentence for a multiple-offender, or defending a decision to a nolle prosse a case when justice demanded it. As a defense attorney, Bill is known as a zealous advocate for his clients, ensuring diligent, cost-effective, honest representation. Now, many years later, I am still proud to call BIll my friend and colleague. He is among the top tier of lawyers I will call when I need to know a referral will be handled with competence."

"I have had the opportunity to work with William Arnau at The State Attorney’s office and as a defense attorney. Bill has handled misdemeanors, felonies and traffic tickets as a defense attorney and prosecutor. Bill is an aggressive advocate for his clients with extensive trial experience. He has a reputation for being tough, honest and having an excellent work ethic. If you are accused of a crime or traffic offense Bill will give you an honest evaluation of your case and will get you the best possible outcome. Many other attorneys are tempted to tell clients what they want to hear to make a quick buck but Bill will always give you an honest evaluation of your case."

"Having worked with Bill as both a prosecutor and now a criminal defense attorney, I can state with confidence that he is a top notch lawyer. I consult with him regularly regarding many issues, but when it comes to criminal traffic and infractions, few are as quick to know the answers as he. His experience and preparation reward his clients with great results."

"I first met Bill when we worked together as prosecutors at the State Attorney's Office. I was quickly impressed with his work ethic, level of preparedness, his knowledge of the law and trial skills. Since leaving the State, he has worked in private practice handling traffic matters. I have had to call him for information/help on a number of occasions and he has continued to impress me. I would gladly refer anyone in need of this sort of representation to him."

"I first met Mr. Arnau when he was a Prosecutor in Daytona Beach. We had dozens of cases together and I always admired his knowledge of the law, his hard work, and his ability to do the right thing on each and every case. He subsequently left the State and began representing clients in criminal and traffic court. I routinely refer traffic cases to Bill and believe he is at the top of the list in our legal community in that practice area. He works hard for his clients and achieves great results. I have a ton of respect for Bill both as a lawyer and a person."
