John Timothy Borah

For more than 30 years, JT has stood up for individuals and families — not corporations, not insurance companies, and never the government. He began his legal career as a criminal defense attorney, representing clients charged with everything from traffic violations to international drug trafficking in federal court. Over the years, he has tried more than 120 cases to jury verdict, gaining invaluable courtroom experience and a deep understanding of what it takes to fight for real people under real pressure.

Eventually, JT found his calling representing patients and families harmed by negligent medical care in Texas. Unlike attorneys who divide their attention across multiple practice areas, JT handles only medical malpractice — no car wrecks, slip-and-falls, or workers' compensation. This uncompromising focus allows him to provide clients with the depth of knowledge and commitment necessary to uncover the truth, hold negligent medical providers accountable, and help prevent the same negligence from harming future patients.

JT's excellence has earned him widespread recognition, including a place on the prestigious Super Lawyers list and recognition in Austin Monthly magazine as one of the top plaintiff medical malpractice attorneys in the Central Texas region. He has testified before both the Texas House and Senate on patient safety issues and regularly receives referrals from legislators and even from defense attorneys who recognize his expertise.
