Driven by a commitment to justice and a passion for civil rights, John T. Floyd began his legal journey studying law at South Texas College of Law. After graduating as a Doctor of Jurisprudence, 1994, Mr. Floyd was admitted to the Texas bar. He has since successfully fought countless cases and has become Board Certified in criminal Law. He believes in the Constitution of this great country and has fought against the government his entire career. He has never been a prosecutor and has never argued that a person accused of a crime be found guilty or sentenced to prison. He believes there is a major philosophical difference between those who have made careers as prosecutors, putting people in prison, and those who passionately believe in defending the accused. It is this passion that drives John T. Floyd to tirelessly fight for the rights of those souls accused of serious crimes, with often no one at their side but this committed criminal defense lawyer.

Mr. Floyd and his team are committed to continued excellence in the often challenging practice area of state and federal criminal justice, and have earned a reputation throughout the country for their integrity, drive, and remarkable history of successful outcomes in these often difficult cases.

When explaining his vocation to reporters from HTexas magazine, Mr. Floyd said, “…far too many people are falsely accused and convicted. It is only the defense lawyer who can stand before the government and demand justice for his client.”
