Announcing Two New Partners

We are thrilled to announce that starting in January 2025, attorneys Eric Fernandez and Craig Harris will become Partners at the Law Offices of Daniel A. Hunt. With these esteemed attorneys on board, we are entering an exciting new chapter of growth and excellence in serving our clients.

About Eric Fernandez

Eric Fernandez is a Partner at the Law Offices of Daniel A. Hunt. His practice focuses primarily on Trust, Estate, and Real Estate Litigation and Real Estate Transactions. A native of Orange County, California, Eric left the warm weather of Southern California to attend St. Mary’s College where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Integrated Liberal Studies and Philosophy as well as a Paralegal Certificate. Eric worked as a paralegal for several AM 100 Law Firms for five years while attempting to pursue his dream of becoming a rockstar.

Ultimately, Eric’s desire to perform in a courtroom prevailed over his desire to be on stage so he hung up his bass guitar to attend the University of Pacific, McGeorge School of Law where he obtained his Juris Doctorate Degree.  Since graduating from law school, Eric has dedicated his legal career to becoming a litigator. Prior to joining the Law Offices of Daniel Hunt, Eric was a shareholder at a firm that focused on representing financial institutions, private companies, and landlords in all aspects of real estate disputes.

Eric also worked as a senior associate attorney for a well-renowned Sacramento Trial Attorney where he represented both plaintiffs and defendants in all aspects of employment litigation and general business disputes. Eric also worked for a well-recognized Sacramento Law Firm representing public entities and school districts in discrimination, constitutional law, Title IX, Title VII, and abuse cases. As an experienced litigator, Eric provides clients with aggressive but efficient representation. He is a member of the California State Bar and Sacramento County Bar Association.

About Craig Harris

Craig A. Harris is a Partner at the Law Offices of Daniel A. Hunt. His practice focuses on estate planning, trust administration, pre-nuptial agreements, probate, and conservatorships. Growing up in the Roseville area, Craig admired the integrity with which his attorney father practiced law, a quality he strives to emulate in his own legal practice today.

After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in History from Brigham Young University, Craig entered law school at the University of the Pacific – McGeorge School of Law. During law school, Craig was a member of the Traynor Society and Moot Court Honors Board. He graduated with Distinction from McGeorge School of Law with a concentration in Business Law.

After his first year of law school, Craig began working as a law clerk for a local estate planning attorney and quickly knew that he had found his practice area of choice. He enjoys helping clients find peace of mind by creating custom estate plans to meet their individual needs.

Craig is a member of the California State Bar, Sacramento County Bar Association, Placer County Bar Association, California Lawyer’s Association, BYU Management Society, and J. Reuben Clark Law Society. He serves as Vice President of Marketing for the South Placer Estate Planning Council.
