Daniel J. Fernandez P.A.: Tampa State and Federal Criminal Defense After More Than 500 Trials and a Narcotics Special-Prosecutor Post

By Expert Attorneys

Daniel J. Fernandez P.A. is a Tampa criminal-defense firm whose founder has personally tried more than 500 cases to verdict over more than 43 years of criminal practice in the city. Before opening his own office, Daniel J. Fernandez served as an Assistant State Attorney in Florida's 13th Judicial Circuit and then as a special prosecutor in the State Attorney's narcotics division. Associate attorneys Dana M. Herce-Fulgueira, Roxanna Solis Smith, Catherine J. Sams, and Austin Crocker practice with the firm. Representation is available in English and Spanish, and initial consultations are free.

The docket covers DUI and felony DUI, drug charges, violent crimes, sex crimes, theft, domestic violence, juvenile cases, probation violations, federal fraud, criminal appeals, and expungement and sealing. A federal fraud file and a later motion to seal or expunge a state case can stay in the same Twiggs Street office rather than being split between a federal specialist and a separate expungement lawyer.

The firm serves clients in Tampa, Clearwater, and St. Petersburg, and in communities across Hillsborough, Pinellas, Polk, Manatee, Sarasota, Pasco, and Hernando Counties. The office is at 625 E Twiggs St, Suite 102, in Tampa. The firm's Google rating is 4.9 from 571 reviews.

A narcotics or DUI charge, a federal fraud case, and a juvenile or probation-violation matter are different kinds of criminal files, and they are all taken by a practice whose founder came to defense work after prosecuting in the 13th Circuit, including as a narcotics special prosecutor, and after trying hundreds of cases to a verdict. That is the design of the Tampa office.

Criminal appeals and probation-violation hearings are part of the practice, so a client is not referred out after a trial or a plea when the next filing is an appeal or a violation affidavit. Juvenile cases are handled in the same Tampa office as an adult DUI or drug charge.
