:: Florida Criminal Law Guide

I have prepared a legal guide that explains the basic stages of the criminal justice system and the process you will go through as a criminal case advances from arrest to final disposition.

This guide is only general information and is not legal advice or a substitute for legal advice. You should only use this legal guide to familiarize yourself with the criminal justice process in Florida. Importantly, as each criminal case is unique, your case will not necessarily be handled in the same manner as described in this guide. Please contact Orlando Criminal Lawyer Richard Hornsby if you have specific questions regarding your involvement in the criminal justice system.
