Great Lawyer!

Mr. Hornsby came highly recommended from a friend who had a similar DUI case. I found Mr. Hornsby extremely knowledgeable and honest. He has a professional attitude and no nonsense demeanor in all interactions and you truly feel he is fighting for you and has your best interests in focus. Though I... feel he could be a little more warm and comforting to clients that are scared and unsure, especially in a first-time offense, he was true to his word on what he felt would happen with my case and kept me informed along the way. He answered any questions that I sent over and helped me immensely to rectify my mistake in the best-case scenario. Thank you, thank you.

Best Possible Outcome!

I was referred to Mr. Hornsby by an attorney for one of my relatives. I was charged with a DUI and I was under the legal drinking age. Mr. Hornsby was able get me entered into a pre-trial Diversion program, however, I was pulled over for driving with a suspended license, before I completed the prog...ram. Mr. Hornsby was not only able to get that ticket reduced to just a court fine, but was also able to still get my DUI down to a reckless driving conviction. The only jail time I served was the night of my initial arrest. Given my circumstances, I couldn't have hoped for a better outcome. I would recommend Mr. Hornsby to anyone who is seeking the best legal representation in the state of Florida!

Possession of Alcohol Underage

Mr. Hornsby was wonderful. He took my case right away and immediately took my statement and explained that 3 things need to occur in order for a person to be charged with possession of alcohol underage. He explained that because one of those three things had not occurred in my situation, that I had a... good case. I provided him with the information of witnesses. I had a court date scheduled but never had to attend because Mr. Hornsby spoke with the prosecutor and got them to dismiss my case. I am more than pleased with the service Mr. Hornsby has provided me.

Case Dismissed

Richard Horsby's website is very informative. For most of the questioned I had, I found the answers easily. I thought that Mr. Hornsby’s idea of teaching the “layman” about the law and their rights was refreshing; therefore, I hired Mr. Hornsby to defend my daughter for a drug possession charge. Mr.... Hornsby kept in touch with me throughout this process, explaining all the possible outcomes for my daughter. Because of his extensive knowledge of the law, and his expertise in research, all charges against my daughter were dismissed.

100% Legal Defense Thumbs Up

I hired Mr. Richard Earl Hornsby after 5 months of extensive research of Criminal Defense Lawyers throughout the Central Florida Area. My Husband was facing many years in Prison due to Violating his probation (5 Felony Counts) in the state of Florida. Mr. Hornsby was extremely Confident and Knowledge...able of the Florida Statues in every which way and therefore knew exactly how he would approach my husbands charges with the State Attorneys Office. This was not a lightweight case that Mr. Richard Hornsby had his hands on. This case was very complex, and Mr. Hornsby took it on without a sweat. Thanks to the knowledge and professionalism this lawyer has under his belt is the reason my husband can live his life again outside of the Criminal Justice System. In the court room, Mr. Hornsby spoke so eloquently, to the point where the State and the Judge just allowed him to speak in a manner in which they trusted and believed to be so. There where no questions from the state as to Mr. Hornsby being incorrect about anything he was bringing forward in this case. A lawyer as such holds a lot of weight and is very well respected in the Judicial System. It was a blessing that I decided to hire Mr. Richard Hornsby to defend my husband in a case that could have determined the fate and well being of our family.
