The Hornsby family has served the legal needs of Central Floridians for over 55 years. James Russell Hornsby, a prominent attorney from the 1950s till his death in 1986 paved the way for the Hornsby Law legacy. His son, Lawrence Hornsby, continued that tradition in 1973 when he established his own practice, Hornsby Law, focusing on representing individuals suffering from injuries as a result of another's negligence.
Today, the Hornsby legal name remains strong in Central Florida with Lawrence's son Hank Hornsby continuing the tradition and representing individuals injured in car accidents and work accidents as well as representing individuals who have suffered financial losses as a result of fraudulent or negligent investment advice. In addition, Richard Hornsby, the youngest son of James Russell Hornsby has become a prominent criminal defense attorney in Orlando, further continuing the legacy of Hornsbys representing the citizens of Central Florida.

Hank is a thoughtful and diligent attorney. He is always working hard to get the best possible results for his clients. I am always happy to refer cases to him.
William Allen, Securities and investment fraud Attorney on Aug 21, 2015
Relationship: Worked together on matter
I've worked with Hank on very complex "David & Goliath" litigation in the commercial and securities fraud arenas. He's a Stetson Law School graduate, which is consistently ranked as the best law school in the country for trial advocacy. He started his career at Greenberg Traurig, where you don't get hired unless you're very bright. He is extremely competent, hard-working, and principled. Don't be fooled by these numerical ratings. The idea these companies rate a lawyer in the 6 to 7 out of 10 range because the lawyer doesn't subscribe to their business model or become an active member is ludicrous and deceptive to me as a trial lawyer of 30 years with a national reputation. It's also unlawfully defamatory and/or disparaging of a truly competent lawyer like Hank because the impression is these other lawyers with higher numerical ratings must be better. That's simply untrue. These companies are treading on thin ice legally and it's a cause I might just take on personally to prove that.
Richard Hornsby, Securities and investment fraud Attorney on Feb 7, 2012
Relationship: Family member
I strongly endorse Hank. He is an outstanding attorney with an exceptional reputation in the white collar arena of securities and investment fraud. He is a strong and zealous advocate for his clients and a credit to our family's long legal legacy. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of his unique legal skill set.
