William Chanfrau, Jr.
in His Own Words

I was born and raised in Daytona Beach where I now continue our family’s legacy as a partner at Chanfrau & Chanfrau.

My decades of experience in personal injury, personal injury protection (PIP) litigation, criminal law, and general practice enable me to serve my clients and their families with keen insight, professionalism, and enthusiasm.

I am very active in both the local and legal arenas with a deep commitment to give back to the community that has been my family’s home for well over 70 years.

I am grateful for these opportunities and the ability to carry on not only the legacy of Chanfrau & Chanfrau but to be of service to those in our community who may not otherwise have a voice.

My experience with Chanfrau & Chanfrau was a long and hard journey. From the beginning, which started over two years ago, to the final settlement. I could tell from the first appointment that I could trust Bill Chanfrau Jr., Amanda Brown and the Chanfrau team. Being a Vietnam Vet, that does not come easy. As time went on I could see that this law firm represented honesty, integrity and professionalism. The team was diligent and courteous and treated me like family. At the end Bill Chanfrau Jr. kept all his promises to me and they exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Chanfrau & Chanfrau Law Firm to anyone.

I have lived in Daytona Beach all my life. So when I was involved in a car accident, I knew to immediately contact the Chanfrau & Chanfrau Law Firm to represent me. Mr. William (Bill) Chanfrau, Jr. is personable, professional, and any questions I had Mr. Chanfrau, his paralegal Amanda, or one of his other very capable staff would get back to me that day. He personally takes an interest in your case, and what is best for you is his foremost concern. He is patient, and clearly outlines the process, what to expect, and presents an honest assessment of your case. He really helped me win my case. While I hope that I am not involved in another accident, should that ever be the case, this is the attorney, and law firm of choice for me.
