I had a difficult DUI case with property damage and a high BAL. I was very concerned about the possibility of serving time in jail, as well as the extreme financial burden I could be facing. He was very honest and forward about both the possible negative outcome of my case, as well as the positive. H...e negotiated a plea deal with the state that I was satisfied with, having my charge amended to a lesser one. My penalties and fines were basically cut in half. On the day of my sentencing, he had reworked my deal heavily in my favor by having the state drop the requirement for me to have an interlock device in my car for a year. That was a pleasant surprise to say the least. I regret my poor decision to drink and drive, but it's nice to have a second chance at correcting one horrible mistake. Hiring him as my attorney was a great decision, and worth every penny. Though I hope to never need his services again, I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a good criminal defense lawyer.

My name is Anthony Aviles and Richard Hornsby recently represented me. This was a very difficult time in my life for me and my family and Richard was true to his word in all that he told me. He had made me feel a little less stress after each time we had spoke. Everything that he said would happen di...d and I am gald that he would fill me in on all the details so I knew exaclty what I was getting into.Hes a lawyer that goes above and beyond what you expect from anyone. I highly reccomened this lawyer to anyone.

I had an excellent experience with Mr. Hornsby. He was quick to respond to any questions I had via email and met with me the very day that I needed to. He was very knowledgeable when counseling me about the steps it was going to take to get my case resolved and I couldn't be happier with the results.... He was recommended to me by a friend and I would recommend him to any friends or family that I have.

Something serious happens. You find yourself on the wrong side of the law. In the hours and days that follow, you will be taken to have your picture and finger prints taken and held in jail. On the other side of the law, in Jail, people you come in contact with "Have heard it all before". Your pictur...e will be on the Internet within hours. You will be alone and in a very scary place. The uncertainty of the future - all the worst-case scenarios will play out in your head. The humiliation. The grave charges brought against you will be hard to comprehend. It's hard to deal with; heavy. I was lucky enough to retain Richard Hornsby as soon as I was able. Richard met me on a Saturday. He was punctual to the minute. In his office, he listened to my explanation of the events. He reviewed my charges from the documents I presented him. He looked me up in the County Clerk system as he knows his way around the infrastructure of the judicial system. Richard sat there for a minute, quietly thinking as he found me in the system and checked various screens of information and looked up the specific statutes I was in violation of. Without an ounce of sugar-coating (I would have loved a "spoon full of sugar as the medicine went down" but that's not Richard's style) he spun around in his office chair and told me how serious the charges were against me. I received a razor-sharp-articulate explanation and a very professional assessment of what to expect and the series of events that would probably unfold. Richard was never mean, cruel or condescending. I never felt that I was about to be "raked over the coals". Richard never promised a thing, but his knowledge of the system and his expectations of a "reasonable and predictable" resolution to my charges were comforting. When I left Richard's office that Saturday, I slept better knowing that I was represented by him. Ultimately it's about sleep; in your own bed, instead of in Jail or Prison. As bad as charges might be against you, relax as much as you can, if Richard is representing you. Even now, as my issue is resolved to a high level of satisfaction, I realize that everything happened according to Richard's assessments from the first day I spoke with him. I hope to never see Richard again, but I know an Attorney who is competent, intelligent and razor sharp, who is out there defending people; now you know too.

To be honest, Attorney Hornsby was chosen by me out of desperation, and how willing he was to help me since I waited last minute to get an attorney. But I'm glad I chose him to defend me. I called him the day before my court date, met up with him in person the day of my court date, and he was readily... available to help. I believe he sees the urgency in all cases just by that simple action. If are reading these reviews and maybe undecided, don't be. Use Attorney Hornsby. His straightforwardness might come across abraisive but I would rather have a straight shooter, than someone sugar coating everything. He set up my expectations accurately. Attorney Hornsby gets it DONE! I was able to contact Mr. Hornsby any time I needed to, and if I didn't speak with him right away, he always promptly returned my phone calls, and even emails.
