First and foremost, Danny Fernandez is a Tampa Native a great attorney, which I’ve known for many years. He’s a top gun, very talented, professional and experienced. He will be there for you too. Don’t even think about it, schedule your consultation today. Secondly, this guy goes beyond the cal...l of duty in order to get you the best results possible for the charges you or your family members may be facing. He knows the system. He’s been there for me always, since I was a teenager 19, years old. I’m 55, now.and very grateful. I thank God for our friendship and the blessings he and his staff have been able to provide me and my family with over many years. He’s my “Attorney” for life‼️ Gotta luv this guy, he’s one of the best.

Danny represented my husband who has a language barrier. Danny and his PA went above and beyond to assist us in his charges. They Were non judgemental and gracious as they walked us through the process. We know they did an excellent job in representing us. There is no one better qualified to repres...ent us here in Tarpon. We are eternally grateful for their service.

Beyond Grateful for him

Daniel Fernandez is by far THE BEST ATTORNEY I've ever hired. He's straight to the point, he had my husband's sentence reduced to HALF on a 7 year sentence and was on top of contacting me about new important updates. I've hired attorneys in the past and from now on I will recommend him to everyone. H...e GETS THE JOB DONE!!!!

Attorney Daniel Fernandez

My daughter was facing a few issues that was going to effect her for a very long time. I did not know which direction to turn or what to do. I googled 5 star attorney's and Mr. Fernandez's name displayed. I called his office and spoke to his paralegal Austin. He was very kind, understanding and gave ...me peace of mind just by speaking to me. I then met Mr. Fernandez shortly thereafter. This Attorney is very kind, compassionate, understanding and truly cares about his clients. His proven results were simply phenomenal. He basically saved my daughter from going away for a very long time instead she is going to receive some medical treatment and soon released with a short period of supervision. Afterwards Mr. Fernandez sat down with me and explained the out come and also has a plan for her moving forward. I know that each situation is different however this attorney not only has proven results he cares and looks for cures for his clients. If your in need of an attorney for any situation I suggest that you call Attorney Daniel Fernandez. I assure you that you will not be disappointed.
