Unless you are narcissist I would suggest that you find another attorney.

Mr Hernandez has no scruples he has a lot of hate for women. Mr Hernandez was supposed to be my x and my attorney instead he badgered, bullied and abused me in a court of law He will say things that have zero truth about anyone that stands up for themselves against him. There are a lot of good ...family law attorneys out there but he is not one

Great Lawer

Daniel acted as the legal representative for my husband throughout his custody battle. He has a profound understanding of the law and passionately defends your rights. Although my husband encountered several rejections from the courts regarding an increase in custody, he ultimately attained a 60/40 c...ustody agreement and made substantial adjustments to holiday schedules and pickup arrangements after hiring Daniel. He’s great!

Best of the Best

Daniel Hernandez represented me in a divorce and custody case. He was my saving grace and honestly, probably one of the best lawyers in the area. He knows the law well, doesn't waste time, and is able to get right to the point of the matter. He will let you know exactly what you need to do and doesn'...t sugar coat it. You will not regret having him by your side. He knows exactly what he is doing and how to do it. I am forever grateful for his services.

Family law hero

Mr. Hernandez takes a tough situation in anyone's life and slow the process so you can regroup and get the answer you need. Never has a lawyer given a client such respect and passion as he did with my family. I will use him again and refer him to anyone I can. He is amazing

Best Choice in The AV

I was referred to Daniel Hernandez by my therapist. Daniel, and his entire staff are not only direct but also explain every step down the road. I had very candid conversations with Daniel, which I believe were for him to really know what were my intentions from the beginning. He fought for me, and my... son. Daniel does not sugar coat anything for anything, but also does in a very professional way. I am completely thankful to Daniel, and his entire staff as he got me and my son everything that we came in for. When I first came to see Daniel, I was very unsure of how to proceed and even thought to hold back and not be as aggressive. However looking back, I am thankful and appreciative of the advice that he and his entire staff provided me. I told him what outcome I was looking for, and he delivered!
