Courteous, Friendly, Down to Earth
My case didn’t involve a lot of money. I simply needed legal advice. Alex and his team of lawyers were very generous with their time, and gave me solid legal and common sense advice. They are all very courteous, very friendly and very down to earth. Their advice served me well, and if I do wind up having to retain a lawyer again, they will be the one.

Helped me handle my will. Great experience!
With three small children, my husband and I decided it was long overdue to have our affairs put in order. The Law Offices of Alex Hernandez is making this uncomplicated and easy. They are taking time to explain the process and answering questions in a way that my husband and I understand. I know that the cost of this service varies but I feel that the cost has been very fair for the professional services we are receiving.

GREAT LAWYER!
When you are in financial distress and physical pain it is difficult to think clearly and make good decisions . That, in addition to not understanding a legal process complicates matters even more. This Firm explained the law, outlined in clear language the steps in the process that where needed to be done. They were reassuring, articulate, knowable and effective. They made the process so much easier and gave me peace of mind in a stressful but successful outcome. Alex Hernandez was selected on recommendation from a trusted friend and was some of the "Best" advice I have ever received

Great experience!
This process was one word "easy". ARH Law is so great at what they do! We needed a will and felt a little overwhelmed, but they explained the process thoroughly in layman terms. You can tell they truly love their jobs and care about their clients. I know I will use them again for future will, trust and estate planning.

Shattered preconceived opinions
Mr Hernandez and the attorneys at the firm are so friendly, well organized, remarkable and helpful. This was my first experience with an attorney and I was a little scared because of stories I had heard from friends that had gone to other law firms. The Hernandez law team made me feel at ease by answering my questions and helping me decide what my best options were. I will definitely pass their info along to friends and family and if I ever need another attorney I will be calling them
