Posted by anonymous | October 10, 2017 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Miracle Worker

From the beginning, Daniel Fernandez ensured he would be able to take care of the DUI case. Unlike some lawyers, he follows through with his promises. Facing a DUI charge were I was certain I would be convicted was frightening; however Mr. Fernandez was able to reduce the DUI to reckless driving; fur...thermore, the reckless driving charged was sealed. Daniel Fernandez sticks by his clients throughout the entire process. Although he is a busy man, he values his clients!

The Fernandez team is professional, trustworthy, and always available to answer questions/keeps you up to date on your case. ...
