A Great Lawyer
Charlton was hired to represent my son, who was injured real bad back in 2017. He not only represented him as a lawyer but he was diligent in finding all the information needed so that the case would be based on facts. He took his time and explained the process to is step by step. I have never had to...

Client
Charlton Hornsby was hired by myself to assist me with a child support/ custody issue. He was very professional and knowledgeable of the civil process and family code. Hornsby’s character and integrity went above and beyond the call of duty. He never lied or told me anything he couldn’t do. He allowe...
"Charlton and I were opposing counsel in a high stakes personal injury/wrongful death case. Many issues in the case were highly contested and the trial lasted four weeks. Throughout the entire litigation, Charlton was tough and zealous advocate for his client while maintaining a high level of professionalism. I endorse Charlton without reservation."
"I have known and worked with Charlton Hornsby many times over the past 25 years. Charlton is an excellent communicatior and very persuasive advocate. We recently worked on a case against an 18-wheeler company where the investigating officer put the fault of the accident on Charlton's client. After spending a lot of time and resources on the case, Charlton was able to obtain a very large settlement from the company that denied all liability for the accident. Charlton's relentless pursuit of justice in that case convinced the trucking company that Charlton was right and their driver was at fault for causing the accident. A less-committed lawyer would have lost that case. But that's not Charlton."
"I have known Charlton Hornsby for over 30 years. I have tried multiple cases with Charlton including cases involving trucking, product liability against GM, medical malpractice involving wrongful death, and catastrophic injury, and cases involving fatal burns at apartment complexes. In each and every case I have found Charlton to be knowledgeable in the applicable law of the case and well prepared on the facts. Charlton has a tremendous court room presence that has helped considerably in reaching good outcomes for the clients."
"I have worked with Charlton in the past in a case where we were both ad litems. In that case I saw Charlton look after a minor's interest with the care and attention of a true professional. Circumstances dictated that he would not be paid for all of his time and attention to the matter through no fault of his own or his client. Nevertheless, Charlton performed perfectly and thoroughly and with the joy that is apparent on the face of an attorney that has done what he went to law school to do. A joy that comes from helping people. That case is only one expression of what I know Charlton has been doing his entire career."
