About Brandon Hornsby

Brandon Hornsby has dedicated nearly twenty years of his legal career to advocating for those in need. Based in Dekalb County, Georgia, he is renowned as a fearless advocate and a champion of the underdog. His practice focuses on representing victims of serious personal injury, civil rights violations, and whistleblowers.

At the beginning of his career, Hornsby served as a state and federal prosecutor, quickly earning a reputation for excellence in the courtroom. Known for his compelling witness examinations and powerful opening and closing arguments, he never lost a murder case during his public service, where he handled many of Atlanta's high-profile murder disputes. His early achievements include becoming the youngest professional to be named Georgia's Assistant District Legal Counsel of the Year.

Transitioning to private practice, Hornsby has continued to fight for the rights of various victims, united in their status as underdogs. His efforts have earned him recognition as one of Georgia's top 100 trial attorneys and one of Georgia's 40 rising stars under 40 by Georgia Trend Magazine. The Fulton County Daily Report also named him one of Georgia's top 10 lawyers on the rise.

Hornsby's courtroom success has led to appearances as a legal expert on numerous television programs, including NBC, ABC, and CBS affiliates in Atlanta, as well as CNN, ESPN, Court TV, and National Public Radio. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has profiled him as a dedicated and tenacious advocate, while the Clayton News Daily and Albany Herald have praised his trial work as "restoring faith" and "commendable," respectively.
