An attorney that fights for you and goes above and beyond

Mr Hornsby is not afraid to go to trial and is always looking for the best result for his client even if it means a lot of extra work. He is very good at negotiating and gave us advice that significantly reduced the sentence from the minimum mandatory requirements which was something every other att...orney we had spoken to said was impossible. He was truly a miracle worker in the case I hired him on and I would never consider hiring another attorney. If you want an attorney you can communicate with easily, knows the judicial system like the back of his hand, and will fight for your life hire Richard Hornsby.

Miles away

Mr. Hornsby was a fantastic lawyer. I live in California and was visiting the Orlando, Florida area. I left my vacation right after my arrest to return home. Mr. Hornsby was able to appear in court on my behalf so I never had to return to Florida for any reason. He kept me informed all everything go...ing on in court and really felt like he was fighting for me. He handled my case with care and ease. Completely worth his weight in gold. I am glad to have had him on my side durning a hard time, I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs legal representation.

The Client's Advocate and Attorney

Attorney Richard Hornsby is an excellent lawyer and counselor. He handled my matter with prompt, decisive attention and set me at ease that he was working with my best interests at heart. Armed with the law he was prepared immediately to have something dismissed (a disorderly charge) given the allege...d facts of my case and the case law, so that my other issue (an alleged trespass) could be attacked after being wrongly accused. My matter was set for trial and Mr. Hornsby was prepared to represent me fully and advocate on my behalf. Ultimately, and thankfully, my case was dismissed. And I have not forgotten his hard work. I'd recommend Mr. Hornsby without reservation to anyone in need of a dogged advocate who will be truthful with you in helping analyze your case.

Criminal Law

Mr. Hornsby handled my case swiftly with precision, dedication, and true honesty. In total I was dealing with the legal process for less than 5 months with only 2 court appearances. I was in a very sticky situation and he bluntly gave me all of the options to proceed. I was not willing to go to trial... based on the charges I was facing and he dauntlessly fought to obtain the plea deal I was offered. The states attorney kept trying to worsen the deal at the last moment, while in court, and he vigorously fought to keep it reasonable despite the annoyance it brought to the states attorney. I was facing 4 felonies and 1 misdemeanor all carrying serious prison time but only received 2 years probation and adjudication was withheld (no felony conviction). While I was hoping for a better plea deal, I was also not willing to gamble it all, 2 years probation and adjudication withheld is GREAT considering the alternative. I was a difficult client to deal with and constantly called him with my, along with my families, questions and concerns. He was never too busy to talk with me or my family (with my permission) and lay everything on the table very honestly and I sincerely thank him for that. He offers a payment plan for those who cannot pay for everything up front which was very helpful. If anyone finds themselves or a family member in legal trouble, in my opinion, the best thing you can do is call Mr. Hornsby! It was the best phone call my sister-in-law EVER made because he saved my future through his hard work, commitment, and audacious attitude. I truly cannot thank you enough Mr. Hornsby for all that you have done for me and my co-defendant. Sincerely, Anonymous

Troubled Times

I was going through a personal domestic case with Richard Hornsby, who helped me get through a very stressful time. Before trial, I contacted Richard who was very helpful with information of what I should do as next steps in the court case. This was very appreciated as this was my first time in thi...s situation. Richard also contacted me numerous times to not only check to see how I was feeling but also to gather information needed for our trial. Richard was able to represent me in court which was great on my behalf. I would definitely recommend Richard Hornsby's services to family or friends in need of a lawyer.
