Amazing lawyer

Daniel Fernandez is the best criminal attorney there is in Tampa bay. Very experienced and always knows what's best for his client. He really fights for his client to the very end. He's very kind and I wants the best for any and every client he has. Looking for a great lawyer he's definitely your ...guy.

Best in the Bay!

He did exactly what he said he would do from day one, no extra fees at any time, his whole team from the receptionist to his assistant were courteous and competent each and every time I called or came in! I walked away with fines and court costs! Couldn't have asked for more and highly recommended, w...ouldn't use anyone else!

The best of the best! 10 stars!

Where to begin? Daniel Fernandez and everyone associated with the law firm carry themselves with the highest of respect and confidence that it radiates the entire office. From the moment you walk into their door you are greeted with smiles and warm welcomes. Mr.Fernandez himself is very thorough with... the processes, and keeps you in the loop every step of the way. He is very professional, sensible, and honest when it comes to decision making, and to make a long story short, he delivers and gets the job done when others can't. This man turned my life around this past week when he and his team had my felony, yes felony conviction, reduced to a withhold. I have and will continue to recommend, very strongly recommend, and push anyone seeking results, to give Daniel Fernandez a call. If you want what is right at a very fair cost, then look no further. I couldn't thank you any more Mr.Fernandez, being a convicted felon at a young age, you see that the world looks down upon you in a way that is unfair, but you've refilled my spirit with hope, and re-opened many doors for my future. Thank you sir, from the bottom of my heart!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
