Mr. Haenel was the right man for my challenging case! His long-standing expertise and established relationships in the field showed on all ends, when communicating with me, with involved parties, and in court. The outcome could not have been any better for me. Gloria is also very attentive, they both... updated me immediately on any new, which helped me to feel at ease throughout this tough time. Thank you!

I consulted Mr. Haenel on a speeding ticket matter and he handled is extremely professionally. He got all the information about my situation in great detail and told me after our consultation “Don’t worry I’ll take care of everything.” Which he did! I received the absolute best result for my situatio...n which looked pretty grim. I highly recommend Mr. Haenel!

September 2017 I went to The Law Place, referred from 2 friends who had been very successful there, not knowing where to turn. I had managed to put myself into a situation that landed me in big trouble. DUI 2nd offense! I met with David and he, with little details to go off of (nothing was uploaded a...t the clerk of courts office yet), took the time to explain each route we could go down with the details I shared. With his direction and experience we worked together for a year and 8 months trying to resolve each detail that had transpired. I’m so fortunate to have found David and his assistant Marla. With his patients and knowledge ALL of my charges were dropped. In the beginning he advised me it was very unlikely that we would be able to get through this without a trial. He and his team worked what seemed effortlessly over the months as my case was passed around by the states attorneys office, pre-trial hearing after pre-trial hearing with manatee county constantly rescheduling my motions over and over, we finally got in front of the judge. My motion to suppress the evidence had my emotions heightened. I, not really having much faith in the system, was amazed how attentive my attorney was in capturing every detail or what seemed to me as false information given to the judge by the other side. They argue with pure and just the right amount of aggressive expertise. Then after this long battle I received the phone call. ALL CHARGES WERE DROPPED. The judge was able to provide multiple pages of reasons why he felt this was an unlawful stop because of all the hard work The Law Place, specifically David and Marla, had put into my case. I just want to say Thank you for the constant communication and not giving up! Answering all my emails and phone calls with a sense of urgency and not letting it slide. I highly recommend David to be on your side!

I paid two outstanding traffic tickets thinking I was doing the right thing. A week later, I received a letter from the DMV stating that I was now considered a habitual traffic offender - facing a 5-year license suspension AND I would not be eligible to apply for a hardship license for ONE YEAR. I wa...s confused, scared and a bit upset because I thought I had done the right thing by paying the tickets. Thankfully, I found Attorney David Haenel before it was a disaster. After my first call with Attorney Haenel, I felt a huge relief. Do yourself a favor...hire this attorney if you're facing ANY traffic misfortune. He explains everything and communicates thoroughly throughout the process. You won't be disappointed...your driving privileges are too precious....I cannot thank this man enough!!
