About
For more than five decades, John M. Economidy has maintained a downtown San Antonio practice marked by restraint, seriousness, and a consistent professional presence. Licensed in Texas since 1974, his work is publicly associated with criminal defense and military law.
Educated at Texas Tech University School of Law and recognized over the years by Super Lawyers, his office reflects an older and more disciplined idea of legal service: measured, local, and built through continuity rather than self-promotion.
“Measured in tone, established in practice, and enduring in reputation.”
Practice Focus
Criminal defense stood at the center of Mr. Economidy’s public professional identity. Over the course of a long San Antonio career, the office came to be associated with serious criminal matters, experienced courtroom judgment, and a disciplined approach to advocacy.
Military law remained a distinctive part of the office’s profile, reflecting a specialized area of legal work alongside criminal defense. It contributed to a practice defined not only by longevity, but by a focused and uncommon professional background.
Professional Standing
Public professional listings identify a San Antonio office at 425 Soledad Street, Suite 250, alongside longstanding practice areas in criminal and military law. Super Lawyers recognition over multiple years further reflects the office’s established standing within the profession.
Legacy
A law office built over decades carries a character of its own. In a profession often defined by turnover and constant reinvention, long continuity suggests something rarer: steadiness of practice, seriousness of purpose, and a reputation that matures over time.
A rare continuity in the modern legal profession.
