Richard E. Hornsby

Reliable, knowledgeable and very professional. After speaking with Richard for the first time I knew he would be the best choice for me. He took my case and within two weeks it was solved in my favor. I highly recommend him.

Best Criminal Defense Attorney Out There!

The smartest thing I did was hire Mr. Hornsby to represent me. He is very professional, extremely knowledgeable, very responsive and is up front and honest about your case and what to expect. He doesn't sugar coat things and doesn't promise you miracles like some lawyers will. Mr. Hornsby is not a "v...olume" lawyer who is going to just automatically go for a plea deal---he looks at the merits of your individual case and will work hard to get you the best possible outcome. He will not waste your time or your money---he was filing motions on my behalf as I was still sitting in his office, and I had copies of all documents pertaining to my case in my inbox before I even arrived home. I felt very confident in Mr. Hornsby's abilities and his handling of my case every step of the way. He was able to expose the truth and exonerate me and, my case was dismissed. I highly recommend Richard Hornsby---he truly is the best. Thank you, Mr. Hornsby!

Excellent Service

Great representation. Mr Richard Hornsby is very professional, proficient and knowledgeable. Every step of the way he worked diligently to ensure the best favorable outcome. His confidence in the service he would render for me put me at ease and immediately gained his trust.Thank you for best servic...e at reasonable cost. The only critic would be that it took a long time to close the case.

Extremely Professional & Helpful

Mr. Hornsby and his office handled my Petite Theft misdemeanor case. Having never been arrested prior to this, I was not familiar with this process. I visited three law offices before meeting with Mr. Hornsby. After a 30 minute meeting, it was clear that he would represent me. He was professional, re...spectful, honest, and "to-the-point" about the theft charges when describing the length and the process to get the charges dismissed and ultimately expunged. It was apparent that Mr. Hornsby has had many years of experience in the Orlando court system and was very knowledgeable about theft cases. Throughout the Pre-trial Diversion program, his office was very efficient in sending an e-mail as well as a typed letter that described each step of the process, (i.e. a letter was sent when I was admitted into the PTD program, released from the program, charges dismissed, etc.). Each letter also described the next steps to expect and also stated to contact his office with any further questions. I highly recommend Mr. Hornsby and his office when looking for representation whether it is a petite theft case or any other criminal charge. He will give you the most honest advice in Orlando in regards to your case.

Look no further...

Not sure if this review qualifies since Richard Hornsby did not actually handle my case directly. What I can say is that this is a Truly honest lawyer. When I requested his services he was somewhat busy with more urgent cases; I just needed an early termination of probation. Hornsby gave me the op...tion of having Lyle Mazin handle my case. I can't thank him enough for introducing me to Lyle Mazin. If Hornsby is The Best, then Lyle Mazin is his twin brother. To be honest, I get the same kind of vibe from both of them...both of them have this suppressed intensity about them ready to be unleashed on the prosecution. My case case was not easy, I was actually asking for early termination at 1/4 of the way. Lyle saw an opportunity to get me out of my situation and pursued it with the skill of master and the zeal of a warrior . These guys are on a league of their own. If you're looking for a lawyer, don't risk getting stuck with someone who is just gonna take your money just to make a bullshit deal with the prosecution just because they don't truly care about you or just don't have the skill and the guts to get in the prosecution's face and argument on your behalf. The guy who handled my case before Attorney Mazin was of the type described in the previous sentence. I felt like he was the prosecution's pet or something. My charges would've been dropped if I had Mazin on my side then. Mazin and Hornsby are true public servants and live sacrificially in order to give their clients the best outcome possible. They could be out suing and getting mega rich, but instead they choose to battle, not to get rich, but to help a brother out. I hope God pays them back for their sacrifice, they deserve more than just money, I hope they live lives with God's favor on their side. Lyle Mazin is the Man! and so is Richard Hornsby, thanks for not dropping me...thanks for taking care of me by introducing me to Lyle Mazin. By the way, Lyle Mazin has plaques all over his walls...he was named Top 40 under 40, Top 100 trial lawyer, and the list goes on. Richard Hornsby is also just as distinguished. I truly wish these guys the best, cause they're the best.
