THE BEST DEFENSE: Relentless dedication and attention to detail.

That’s what it takes to be the best. Daniel Fernandez has been practicing law for 42 years. His skills in the courtroom have been sought out by clients throughout Florida, as well as New York, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, Arizona, Missouri and Washington, D.C. As one Circuit Judge surmised, he is a master strategist. His success has not been limited to criminal law; Mr. Fernandez has also recovered millions on behalf of clients injured in serious accidents. His Tampa office exudes a relaxed vibe. He insists on music (soft jazz) playing at all times. The walls are adorned with newspaper clippings of trials won.

“I want people who come to my firm with their legal issues to feel relaxed, and I want them to leave knowing they have chosen the right lawyer.”

Karen, his wife of 42 years, says, “He is doing exactly what he was placed on this earth to do, and that’s to help people in need.”
