Tom Horne

Tom Horne was a godsend to me when I needed it most. Thank you, Lord! I am a state employee that was wrongfully terminated. My discharge was based on nothing but pure retaliation. State employees have less rights then normal folks. Overall, I had hired three attorneys that ended up screwing up my ca...se royally. I followed all the rules regarding my termination. I filed with the EEOC, received right to sue the State from Washington D.C. that agreed there was an error in my termination. My first attorney buckled upon the first phone call conversation with the Attorney General’s office. He changed the direction of my case that I did not want to go and without permission and after he did and was called on it, he immediately wanted off the case. The second attorney was hired. She completely abandoned my case and did nothing which lead me to the third attorney (a well-known firm). I felt confident after the meeting that they could accomplish the goal of getting my case back on track and winning. The senior attorney (owner) stated he would oversee the case but wanted to have a junior attorney be on it as well to learn. Big mistake, he actually handed off the case to Junior that ended up screwing up my case even more. They did not listen to my request to be present during dispositions and lack of communication on keeping me posted and timelines were missed. Because of this the AG’s office was able to be awarded a “judgment summary” against me, which means my case was won by the State without a day in court or one piece of evidence ever being seen by a jury. This lead me to Tom Horne, a former “Attorney General”. I needed an attorney that could appeal the summary judgment at the 9th District of Appeals and was not afraid to take on the Attorney General’s office. He reviewed my case and immediately took it on. He was so kind, calm, and confident during the whole process while educating me on what to expect. He was my last hope of getting my case back in court and getting my career back. I have been working in this field since I was 19 years old. This whole process has been going on since 2014. OMG, HE DID IT!!! We won the appeal and it has been ordered back to Federal Court for trial. As of right now, this is where I am in the process. This was a MAJOR victory that I could not let go without showing appreciation and a HUGE shout out of “THANK YOU!” My hope of justice has been restored to this point. Once I win in Federal Court, and I will. I will be posting another review to provide follow-up with my case and the outcome. If you are feeling all hope is lost with your case then you need to speak to Tom. I can tell you from experience that attorneys have the gift of gab and can sell you promises on what they might be able to do but Tom Horne can show you RESULTS on how it is done pure and simple. If YOU are reading this review and are looking for an attorney hang in there. I was doing the same thing you are doing right now feeling hopeless, lost, and praying for someone to help me. If you are a STATE employee then there is NO DOUBT this is the attorney you will need PERIOD to fight your case. A big shout out to Tom’s staff that are the nicest ladies to deal with and their kindness and understanding helped me through a very dark period in my life by being the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

We only had a brief interaction with Horne Law but it was very successful. We had been working with another law firm on a dispute and the other law firm kept pushing us to settle for terms that seemed wholly unfair and unjust. We transferred our case to Tom as we wanted to understand our options and ...entertain litigation. Tom told us we had a strong case so we sued. In a matter of days, after opposition learned that we had hired Tom we got the settlement and the terms we wanted. Tom is a skilled commercial litigator with a broad understanding of Arizona Law. If you want to fight back, I suggest calling Tom Horne. He will be very fair and give you an objective opinion. Then he has the experience and skill to help you win.

We came to Tom Horne after wasting 2 1/2 years with two other valley firms. This case involved not one but 2 complicated cases. Tom listened he heard the facts and he took action. He was ready to fight for us. Tom saw both cases through till the end. Tom took the upper hand and stopped the bullying w...e were receiving. Tom has away of getting the answers he needs and exposing the other side for who and what they are, and aren't. He does all this while always remaining professional & classy. Tom and his Team, (Matt) were always there to help and reassure me. Our Accountant said he had never in 35 years seen a case with this good of an outcome. I consider Tom Horne not only my attorney but my friend. Thank you Tom.

In 1982, I took a position a Surety Bond Underwriter trainee with a small Bonding Company. Tom's book was an instrumental part of the training program to give insight into the legal consequences when underwriting goes wrong. Thirty years later I discovered Tom is far more than a successful author of... a highly acclaimed legal volume, he is a brilliant seasoned trial lawyer. A very well known Insurance/Surety Company destroyed my Bond Agency. My case pitted Tom against a legal team funded by that giant in the Insurance Industry. Very much a David versus Goliath legal battle. Tom is a fearless legal genius and is opposing counsel's worst nightmare. Hire him or suffer the consequences.

Brilliant, knowledgeable, immediately instills confidence and restores your faith in the justice system as fair and equitable. Attorney Horne truly demonstrates that his office is client oriented and settled my case immediately. He is very unassuming and the person you would most likely want sitti...ng next to you in court.
