David O. Hernandez has dedicated his life and career to serving California’s Central Valley, where he was born and raised. As a former farm laborer himself, Mr. Hernandez understands firsthand the value of hard work and determination. Throughout high school and his time at Fresno City College, he worked weekends and school breaks in the fields to support his educational goals.
After earning his degree from Fresno City College, Mr. Hernandez transferred to California State University, Fresno, where he completed his bachelor’s degree in Business. His academic success led to his acceptance into the MBA program at the University of California, Los Angeles, and upon graduating from UCLA, he was awarded a full scholarship to attend Santa Clara University School of Law.
After completing law school and passing the California Bar in the same year, Mr. Hernandez returned to the Central Valley to work as an attorney for California Rural Legal Services in Madera, Ca. There, he litigated numerous cases on behalf of underserved communities and obtained his first published legal opinion.
In 1982, Mr. Hernandez founded Hernandez Law Offices. For over four decades, he has represented thousands of farmworkers, field laborers, and blue-collar individuals in matters involving Workers’ Compensation, Personal Injury, and Criminal Law.
Mr. Hernandez has also served for decades as a board member and officer for the La Raza Lawyers Association and has dedicated countless hours and resources to organizations throughout the San Joaquin Valley.
When not zealously advocating for his clients, Mr. Hernandez enjoys golfing, playing basketball, spending time with his family, and relaxing with a cold drink.
