Communicative, Compassionate, and perseverant

By golly! I am ecstatic with the extravagant work that Jay has presented during such a horrific time frame of my life. After an accident, the last thing you want is someone or doing their job in regards to YOUR safety, well-being, and overall mental health. This amazing individual has provided the be...st professionals to assist in aiding my physical therapy and being very quick with responding to my calls and emails. I appreciate him for reaching out to me to make sure that I’m being heard and that I’m getting the most accurate information to better get me back on my feet. You won’t feel ignored, you won’t feel confused, he is very thorough in meetings and you know exactly what is going on. His confidence and perseverance shines throughout the process. It’s one less thing to worry about in regards to your case being in the right hands. Don’t even think twice! Trust me, choose James M. Horne, Jr. as your attorney. He’s a wonderful person too that actually sympathizes with you instead of faking it just to get a quick buck. He actually takes his time to get to know you too so it feels like a friend helping you out. Thanks again, friend! (: -Christine

Exemplary work at its finest

Attorney James Horne not only went above and beyond with this case but he kept me informed in every step of the process. He not only gives you on his opinion for the next move but he backs that opinion up as to why it is the best move for you and whatever it is that you are trying to achieve. I highl...y recommend him for anyone looking for a lawyer that is not only just good at his job but shows pride in his work and leaves situations better than when he had found them.

Excellent Attorney

Divorce is a very difficult process; however, Attorney James Horne handled my case with a high level of professionalism, sympathy and efficiency. He guided me through the process, responded to my questions in a timely manner, and had clear understanding of my decisions. I would recommend Attorney Ja...mes Horne as he is exceptional, very knowledgeable and with great attention to detail.

Best Lawyer. Ever.

Mr. Horne is a great lawyer. We choose him to be our attorney on a medical malpractice issue. We did not know what to expect but we knew it was going to be a process. Jay and his team sent us copies of documents along the way and prepared us for our statements. He is such a bright young lawyer and he... obviously puts all that he has into each case. I highly recommend Jay and his law firm. He is very knowledgeable on the law, always available if you have a questions and gets the job done!

Posted by Taylor Sellitto | July 11, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Professional and Affordable!

We hired Jay about a year ago in our Child Custody case to modify our parenting plan, and to obtain child support. As we all know, the legal system is a long and grueling process which takes time. Jay has always been very prepared when presenting our case to the judge and is very organized. If there ...is ever a time where I need to reach him to simply ask him a question, he always gets back to me very quickly. When meeting with Jay in his office, he is very thorough, takes his time, answers all of our questions and never seems as though he is in a rush. I would highly recommend using him in any Family Law matter that you would like resolved.
