Attorney Profile

ff

A law firm is only as good
as the people who work there.

Steven G. Horneffer is a former Assistant State Attorney who handled a wide variety of misdemeanor and felony offenses while prosecuting in Eighteenth Circuit in Seminole County, Florida from 1978-1982. He is licensed to practice law in all state courts in Florida, as well as many Federal Courts, having represented clients in the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, the United States District Court for the Southern District of Georgia, the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, and the United States District Court for the District of Arizona. Mr. Horneffer is Board Certified in Criminal Trial Law by the Florida Bar Association Board of Legal Specialization and Education (since 1990.) Fewer than 5% of lawyers are Board Certified, a process which involves focused experience (at least 25 trials), intensive testing and peer review.

In addition to being Board Certified in Criminal Trial Law, Mr. Horneffer also stays on top of trends in criminal law through his involvement with the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (Director), the Central Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers Association (Chapter Representative), the Florida Bar Association, the Criminal Law Section of the Florida Bar, and the National College of DUI Defense. Since 1978 Mr. Horneffer has practiced almost exclusively in criminal defense, representing clients accused of everything from first degree murder to traffic offenses.
