Best Law Group.

I highly recommend Horan Law! I was facing a criminal speeding ticket, and thanks to their hard work and expertise, my charge was reduced to a civil violation. They were professional, responsive, and walked me through the entire process with confidence and clarity. I’m very thankful for the outcome a...nd wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again if needed. Excellent legal representation!

Accident injury representation ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I highly recommend Horan Law Office to anyone seeking an accident injury attorney. From the get-go to the incredible resolution of my case, their professionalism, expertise, and genuine care every step of the way was awesome. AD explained the legal processes in an understandable way . He took the tim...e to ensure I fully grasped every detail of my case, outlining potential strategies and setting realistic expectations. There were no surprises, only clear, concise information that reassured me throughout the process. Brisa his paralegal was equally impressive, always ready with answers to my questions and providing thorough explanations of documents and procedures. Dealing with an injury is stressful, and both A.D. and Brisa put me at ease dealing with the physical and emotional toll it takes. Making sure I got the proper and best treatment for my injuries. I really appreciate their concern for my comfort and care. They listened patiently, offered reassurance and empathy. The communication from A.D. and Brisa was simply outstanding. I was consistently kept in the loop regarding every development, whether it was a minor update or a significant breakthrough. Emails were answered promptly, phone calls were returned swiftly, and I never had to wonder about the status of my case. This proactive and transparent communication reduced my anxiety and built immense trust. The settlement outcome was double what I Expected! Thanks to AD's negotiation skills, and unwavering dedication to my best interests truly paid off. I am absolutely thrilled with the result and immensely grateful for their tireless efforts. If you are looking for an accident injury attorney who combines excellent legal acumen with genuine human compassion, this is it. AD and Brisa are awesome and deliver exceptional results. My experience with them was nothing short of excellent, and I wholeheartedly recommend them without reservation.

great lawyer

MR. Horan is truly a great lawyer... not only because he knows legal matters, but also because he is able to relate to clients... he is so easy to reach, which is rare for a lawyer.. It felt like he was a friend helping me with my case, and got me a solid settlement. Would highly recommend.

Posted by Eric | August 30, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Car Accidents

Stress free and very honest walking us through the whole process

What can I say but absolutely amazing. My parents were in a horrific car accident, it was bad enough that people were asking if my mother had passed. That could lead into a decent ford review as well I guess. But AD was amazing not only was he on top of things and fought hard for my mother, but with... the issues she was experiencing he made sure to keep me in the loop at my parents request. Brisa was also amazing so patient and kind. Any documentation that was needed was easily described on what was needed and how to get it to them. Brisa was responsive and even AD as you would expect him to be slammed with court cases and other things still made sure to get back to you within a reasonable time frame. For me and my parents the process was easy, and worry free AD and Brisa kept us up to date on everything essentially holding our hands through the whole process. I would recommend AD to anyone.

Posted by William | March 15, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Highly recommend

I do not usually leave reviews but in this case, I am going to because I feel so much gratitude for the help and guidance we received from Mr Horan at Horan Law Offices. I telephonically interviewed three attorneys before deciding to retain Mr. Horan. I did my research on each attorney before speak...ing to them on the phone because I wanted to do my due diligence before hearing their pitches. There were three factors that guided our decision to choose Mr. Horan. 1) Our independent research, 2) A recommendation from a trusted attorney in another field, and 3) The initial phone call with Mr. Horan. He came across very professionally and spoke factually and realistically about our case. He even offered us advice and guidance if we were to go with another attorney (I found that to be a sign of good character). There was no “ambulance chaser” or “used car salesman” approach with him. He did not build false hope or lead us down a path that was not based in reality. We are not gamblers and did not want to hear nonsense that had a low probability of occurring or would just build false hopes. As our attorney/client relationship grew, I found Mr. Horan to be knowledgeable about the law as it would be applied to our case. His experience in the matter really showed through (this was not his first rodeo, and his experience really was a blessing for us). Not only does he know how to navigate the legal system, but he was also equally competent in explaining it to us in layman terms. This was our first experience with the criminal justice system as a defendant. He was able to explain and educate us every step of the way during this unfortunate journey and was always available to field questions, which we had many. Almost all conversations ended with him saying to call him if we had any questions. Mr. Horan always made himself available to us and communicated well with phone calls and emails. As busy as he is, Mr. Horan found time to reach out to us, sometimes after normal working hours, even if it was to just let us know he would be getting back to us the next day. We were never left “hanging” wondering if he received our call or email. Brisa in the office was equally as helpful in keeping the lines of communication flowing. Mr. Horan’s advice and experience was critical in getting the desired result at the end of our case. The outcome for us was better than we expected. I feel confident that a lessor experienced attorney would not have attained as favorable an outcome. All that aside, I found Mr. Horan to be a good man. He is kind, compassionate, understanding, and I believe he truly cared about us as people, not just clients. We also never felt ‘judged’ by him or his office. We were beyond satisfied with Mr. Horan’s services and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a criminal defense attorney.
