Expert in his field of law, personable, respectful, caring
When Dan says free consultation, he means it. I called Dan to inquire into a family matter and over the course of a week we shared many phone calls. He was so helpful that I even offered to pay him for his time. He said no of course! I definitely recommend Dan to anyone looking for a family attorney.

Originally from the great State of Texas, Mr. Archer has sought the practice of law as his second career. Â After graduating high school in 1992, Mr. Archer enlisted in the US Air Force and served as a Munitions Systems Specialist and a Training Manager/Instructor until he discharged in 2000. Â Upon completion of his bachelors degrees at McMurry University (Science) and University of Central Oklahoma (Business Admin.), he attended Barry University School of Law and received his Juris Doctorate in 2005. Â Mr. Archer began his practice in 2006 and has continued in the areas of Family Law and Criminal Law ever since. Â The fact that he has experienced his own family law issues and has seven (7) children lends itself to the fact that Mr. Archer is a true advocate for minor children and understands the impact litigation can have on children.

Dan Archer is fantastic
We wholeheartedly recommend Dan Archer as an attorney! We couldn't have asked for a better, more capable lawyer. He dealt with our case in an extremely confident and professional manner that continually engendered a sense of calmness and trust that was truly amazing. Mr. Archer's composure and skill set lead us through the maze of worry and confusion (associated with court cases) with such expertise, that he rendered a sense of assurance throughout the entire process. We were continually impressed at Mr. Archer's proficiency in each and every aspect of the case, as it moved forward. Mr. Archer successfully navigated us to a fantastic outcome. Anyone would be blessed to have Dan Archer as their lawyer-- He is not only immensely talented in his field, but he is also communicable, focussed, and a genuinely wonderful person. We will be forever thankful to him and his staff for taking such fantastic care of us! Do not hesitate-- use Dan Archer now!

Criminal Case - DUI
I was arrested and accused of DUI because I failed the field sobriety test. I pled non guilty because I passed the breathalyzer and the urine tests. Attorney Archer proved there were mitigating circumstances why I failed the field sobriety test and the jury found me not guilty. Very grateful for his dedication and competence.

Family Law
I am 85 yrs old and myself or my immediate family have never needed an atty until an o/s member was removed from a modest will and a 17 yer old adopted daughter wanted to marry a 25 yr old repeat felon. These family members who then went on a witchhunt . Atty Dan Archer protected us, made sure we were treated with respect and never once did he question our innocence.
These following comments are being made to anyone who ever needs a family or a criminal lawyer.
Atty Dan Archer is unquestionably the most sincere and kindest person we were privileged to meet. He is undoubtedly the finest and most knowledgeable atty in the state of Fl. or in my opinion anywhere else.
You hear a lot of nightmares about attys. You will never hear one about atty Dan Archer. Again, he is the kindest and most knowledgeable person that myself of my family has ever met in our lifetime.
God Bless him and his family and continue to give him the knowledge and blessings that he has received from God.
If you are falsely accused as in our case or you made a mistake Dan Archer will make sure that your rights are protected.
Again God bless him. He is a great person and superb Attorney.

Went above the call of duty
I was having a hard time with my teenager, Danny stepped in to help me, with both the legal and personal battles. He was strong and firm with my teen, but showed that he cared and that was why he was helping us.

Feels like Family
From the first time I contacted Mr. Archer's office, I felt like family. The care and concern for me and my case was always evident. Dan's knowledge on family law led me through a long and trying period to a satisfactory conclusion. I wish I had hired him sooner. Anyone in the market for an attorney will benefit greatly with Mr. Archer and his firm.

Redeemed My Faith in People
I realize my Review Title may elicit skepticism for some, but, it is entirely true. I was in the most dire need of an attorney to represent me in a sensitive dependency/relinquishment of parental rights matter. It was the most difficult decision I've had to make in my 58 years. It has taken me some weeks to write this review as going through the process of relinquishment of parental rights is like the death of a child, if not worse.
Dan Archer represented me in a difficult case and protected me, my reputation and my other minor child. I cannot adequately describe in words, the relief I had knowing Mr Archer was handling my case. Sadly, in this world, a little trust at a time when you are vulnerable and exhausted, can be sorely disappointing, disheartening and devastating. Mr Archer demonstrated empathy, kindness and in his words "did the right thing." I'm forever grateful. The impact of his actions will never fade. He restored our lives.

Dan Archer ,great lawyer and a stand up guy
I recently had the misfortune of having untrue altercations said about myself,I contacted a few lawyers,most outrageous in price ,some too busy to talk with me,Dan spoke with me understood my position and agreed to help ,his office was very helpful ,especially Nicole .He contacted me personally when needed and was direct and to the point . He was able to even make a house call when He was in my end of town.
I feel Dan Archer is an excellent attorney and hopefully I will not need him in the future , but it's good to know he is there.i recommend him very highly.

Child Custody
Dan (and Danielle) both did a wonderful job in getting me 50/50 custody of my son and reducing my Child Support payments according to Florida Statues. Dan and Danielle also assisted me with the adoption of my daughter and I cannot give them enough praise for the wonderful manner in which they handled both my cases. I can honestly say that Dan and his entire staff are nothing but professional, are easy to deal with, make you feel comfortable and walk you through each stage of the process. There was never a time during the entire process that I ever felt that Dan or Danielle were not looking out for my best interest, the interest of my son and the interest of my family. Dan went out of his way to make sure I was always aware of what was going on and what would transpire. There are not enough words to adequately thank him for what he has done for my family. It is true, that he and Danielle and their entire legal staff make you feel like you are part of their family. Again, Dan and Danielle, I cannot thank you enough for your support.

The beast of the best
He's the beast in court. The best of the best. If he offer you something he would get it for you. Hired him for a petite theft case when I was an absconder from other state and he keep me out of jail, in home with a house arrest but home with my love ones. From now on he will be my family lawyer for everything. Powerful attorney where he step all the others shake and fear.

Child Support Case WIN!!!!
Mr. Archer represented me in a child support dispute with my ex-husband. My child support stress has been ongoing for over 10 years. Mr. Archer was able to use his vast knowledge of the law and experience to represent me and achieve the best outcome for my specific situation. Through the years I have spent thousands of dollars in representation and trying to achieve the outcome that Mr. Archer was able to achieve for my case. Dan’s rates were extremely reasonable and he lived up to his word. I would recommend Daniel Archer and his team to anyone who needs a lawyer. They are professional carrying do what they claim they can do. Mr. Archer is Honest and very trustworthy. Thank you for all of your hard work, you have given me a brand new lease on life and given me the resources to raise my son with all of the advantages he deserves!!

Excellent Attorney
In 2011 I chose Dan Archer to represent me in a custody type matter. Dan was very understanding of my very fragile situation. Dan informed me in the very beginning of my consultation that he would do his very best to help me and he did exactly that. Dan informed me everytime something new arose. Just as any business your name is your bond... Dan chose to discontinue my case for the best interest of his business, at first like any consumer I was a little upset but after some very life changing events I realized that Dan Archer is an average human just like myself and he is an attorney but he's not God. He couldn't go back and repair a mistake that I made and correct something that was unrepairable. I had to realize that was my fault not Dan Archer the man whom stood up for me and did everything he could to help me. Looking back I can see that God didn't allow Dan Archer to help me with my situation because I still had a lesson that needed to be learned. Just recently I was browsing facebook and noticed Dan had a Facebook page,I sent a friend request. A day or two later I receive an acceptance and a message from Dan. The message said what is your address. My immediate response was " Why would this attorney need my address?" Then I received a phone call, it was Dan Archer. He called to let me know he had been looking for me for over 3 years as he had money that belonged to me. The money was funds left over from the case I had with him in 2011. I was so shocked... What attorney do you know that would search for someone for over 3 years, hold the money they owe you for that period of time, and make it a point to return the money to you years later? Dan Archer is that attorney, he kept the money left in the trust acct for my case for over 3 years and as soon as he located me he sent it to me immediately!! Thank you Dan for the great service you provided me as well as my family.

All I can say is I would not have anyone else represent me--ever. It is foolish to underestimate Dan Archer. He looks like a biker--but is the most gentle caring soul I have met. But watch out if he messes with you. I saw that as he defended me. Use this guy if you want action--or as the Bible says: Faith with Works!!

Professional Representation
I have been through an emotional roller coaster for the past 18 months related to three legal issues. Through it all, I felt like Mr. Archer was professional and very knowledgeable about the law. The matter came to a close last week and I am pleased with the way things turned out, exactly as Mr. Archer had advised me they would. In addition, I believe his fees were reasonable for the representation I received - at no time did I think I was being over charged for services.
