Highly Recommended

Richard assisted my husband after he was arrested. I called Richard that very day and he was at my husband’s side for his bond hearing, which was such a relief. Richard was genuinely concerned about our situation and helped my husband throughout the court process. Richard is the lawyer to go to when you need a lawyer the most.

reply to question

Asked a question about difference between clemency and commutation of sentence.Did explain i was in contact with someone who was in prison who,s sentence was harsh. Answered my question but then proceeded to question my sanity by referring to me as a weirdo who writes to people in prison. Not exactly very professional for a lawyer

case dismissed

Mr. Hornsby was truly the lawyer that everyone else had stated in their reviews. I believe there is no better lawyer out there to be by your side in these times. He was very honest and straightforward with me every step of the way with my case. Any questions I had, he would Email me quickly with a answer and he took my case very seriously. He was able to get my case dismissed quickly and I am very thankful for that.

Thank you very much!

Mr. Hornsby helped my case be dismissed. He also prevented me from having any additional charges. He followed up and helped me retrieve my property. I very much appreciate all his assistance.

Best lawyer in Central Florida

Mr. Hornsby is the best attorney in Florida by far. Whenever I spoke with him, it is clear that he is about business and worked very hard on my case. He was my attorney for two cases I had, and both times he got the result we were looking get. If it wasn’t for Mr. Hornsby, my life would be completely upside down but he saved me, not once, but twice. I would never trust another attorney the way I trust Mr. Hornsby. If you need an attorney, look no further than Mr. Hornsby. Give him your trust and I guarantee he will do his best for you, no doubts about it. Thank you Mr. Hornsby!

Richard is one of the finest lawyers I know and a ferocious litigator. Some people may misunderstand his bluntness, but he cuts to the core of issues without wasting clients time with sugar-coating.

Shon Joseph Douctre , Criminal defense, DUI and DWI, Expungement, Speeding and traffic ticket, Trusts

endorsement on Jan. 15, 2014 Relation Ship: Legal Professional

Richard Hornsby is a heavy weight. If myself or a family member was in trouble for any serious felony case, Richard would my top pick in Orlando. Richard Hornsby does not play! He is outstanding at law and as a person. First class.

I endorse this lawyer.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Richard Hornsby since he was a rising star in the Public Defender’s Office more than a decade ago. Richard is a gifted trial lawyer and fearless legal advocate on behalf of his clients. I enthusiastically endorse this criminal defense lawyer.

anonymous

Through the years I've sent several referrals to Mr. Hornsby and I will continue to do so, this guy knows what he's doing. I endorse this lawyer.

Richard is a superb attorney. His knowledge of the law and prowess in the courtroom is widely known throughout central Florida. I highly recommend Richard Hornsby.

anonymous

I endorse this lawyer. Highly respected in the legal community.

Mr. Hornsby is an attorney who has that very rare"special sauce" that makes him one of best trial attorneys in Florida. He possesses a wide range of knowledge, along with a tenacious will, that when put together, allow him to get the optimal results for each of his clients. Our Firm highly endorses Mr. Hornsby.

anonymous

I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Hornsby aggressively defends every case he handles, and is a great advocate for his clients. Clients are well informed and expertly represented. Mr. Hornsby is also a very helpful resource for colleagues. My endorsement is not just that of a colleague, but also that of a former client.

anonymous

I endorse this lawyer. If you are looking for a real trial lawyer, then Richard should be your choice. He is a relentless advocate for his clients, and doesn't shy away from taking cases to trial. Top notch.

anonymous

Richard Hornsby is very well known locally as a dedicated, talented, and passionate advocate.

This Hornsby fellow is a rare breed in our age of declining jury trials and plea-bargain, conveyor-belt justice. Good on his feet and good in his seat, Richard's motion practice is built on thorough research and creativity - I know because I've seen his pleadings. It is often enough to seriously wound the State's prosecution. But if one goes to trial, woe unto those who seek harm for his client. Richard's unrelenting trial preparation and ferocious advocacy speaks, I think, to his respect for the best traditions of our great profession. F.Lee Bailey once said a good criminal defense lawyer has to be a maverick and a renegade. That sure fits Hornsby. There are many fine lawyers in this town, but if there was a survey that polled Orlando criminal lawyers whom they would hire if a loved one was arrested for a serious crime (and it could not be themselves or their partners), I believe Richard would be on the short-list.

anonymous

I endorse this lawyer. Hornsby is a damn good trial lawyer. He likes to say he is a better trial lawyer than me. He is not afraid to take a case to trial. He is gifted. I only beat a few times at trial when we were very young so I know he is solid. He also has sharp as a tack legal mind. He thinks highly of himself but I think it is well deserved. I think highly of him too. His theatrics in the courtroom do not go unnoticed (by me) and as such, he wins over a jury.

Top-notch attorney. Highly respected in the legal community.
