Young Gunners | "Three Sides of Justice" feat. Tim Adams

🎧 A new Young Gunners episode is live – and it’s a masterclass in perspective.

This week features Tim Adams, the 2026–2027 Chair‑Elect of Texas Young Lawyers Association and a Houston‑based criminal defense attorney whose career spans every corner of the criminal justice system. Tim’s path is rare: he began as a police officer in Gulfport, serving in Street Crimes, Narcotics, Criminal Investigations, and SWAT. After earning his degree in criminal justice, he moved to Texas, excelled at Thurgood Marshall School of Law, and went on to prosecute civil rights violations - holding law enforcement accountable from the inside.

Today, he leads his own criminal defense practice while also serving as a professor and Director of Advocacy at Thurgood Marshall School of Law. His episode explores what justice looks like when you’ve lived it from all three vantage points: officer, prosecutor, and defense attorney.

It’s a thoughtful, candid look at how experience shapes advocacy - and why the legal profession needs voices who’ve walked every side of the line.
