The Chanfrau family's involvement in the legal system of Volusia County spreads over 70 years. More than 30 of those years have been dedicated to representing victims and family members who have been affected by motorcycle accidents, auto accidents, trucking accidents, child injuries, employment discrimination, overtime and wage disputes, sexual harassment, and more.
