"Exceeded my expectations." Another Satisfied Client
"I recently had the pleasure of working with Chanfrau & Chanfrau on my personal injury case and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. The entire team, from the receptionist to the lawyers, was professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. They made sure I understood every step of the process and were always available to answer any questions I had. The end result was a settlement that exceeded my expectations and I am grateful for their hard work and dedication." Austin Harrell
You Don't Pay Unless We Win Chanfrau & Chanfrau handles personal injury cases on a contingency basis, meaning you will only owe an attorney's fee if we obtain compensation for your case.

"The best of the best." Another 5-Star Review
"Kelly Chanfrau and her team are the best of the best. Kelly represented me for a gender discrimination case. She listened to the facts about my case and agreed to take it after i was turned away from a high profile law firm. She presents herself with professionalism. She listens with respect and the utmost sincerity to your case. She is classic and tough and she fought for me tooth and nail... I was ecstatic with the outcome of my case that settled for six figures." Lisa Moore

What Our Personal Injury Law Firm Can Do for You
If you are a victim of a car accident, motorcycle crash, or sustained any injuries involving a motor vehicle, our attorneys are interested in hearing your personal injury case.
Some people may be hesitant to contact an attorney after they've been in a car accident. Insurance companies may promise to pay you for damages and compensation like medical bills, and deter you from seeking legal representation. However, if you've been hurt in a car accident or a vehicle crash, it is in your best interest to have someone who will fight for you in court.
Having a team on your side that has experience with Florida's personal injury laws can make all the difference in your case. A winning verdict in your favor can result in compensation for wages lost, medical bills, vehicle damages, and more. Our team of attorneys may be able to secure compensation for loss of future wages if your injuries make it impossible to work or continue working in your professional field.
As a tourist location for motorcyclists and race car enthusiasts, Volusia County experiences an influx in both foot traffic and road traffic throughout the year. If you were involved in a personal injury, contact our Daytona Beach or Palm Coast office today.

With so much going on, finding the time to visit a lawyer is likely at the bottom of the list of things to get completed. If you or a family member have been severely injured, traveling to our offices in Daytona Beach and Palm Coast may not even be a viable possibility. In such cases, our personal injury lawyers will gladly come to you to ease your burden during these challenging times.
