John Musca has devoted his legal career to criminal defense. He decided to open his own comprehensive criminal defense firm in 2001 after serving as a Public Defender in the 20th Judicial Circuit of Florida. His practice has grown tremendously, now operating nine offices throughout the state with plans to ultimately offer full-service criminal defense to all of Florida. Mr. Musca is committed to offering outstanding service to his clients and attributes the success of his law practice to the satisfaction of his clients and the diligence of the Florida criminal defense lawyers in the office. He describes his work as a criminal defense attorney as his passion, rather than just his job.

During his career as a private criminal defense attorney and former Public Defender, Mr. Musca has handled thousands of criminal cases from beginning to end and tried over 100 cases. He believes in an aggressive defense philosophy, focusing on clients' strengths and the weaknesses in the prosecution's case.  He is licensed to practice law in the state of Florida and the United States Federal Court, Middle District of Florida.

Mr. Musca completed his undergraduate studies cum laude at Boston College in 1994 and received his Juris Doctor from the Case Western University School of Law in 1997. He speaks Spanish fluently and has attended international language and legal studies overseas at the world-renowned "Instituto Internacional" in Madrid, Spain. Additionally, he is involved in public interest legal work with local organizations that provide services to impoverished clients.

Mr. Musca founded Musca Law with the goal of providing the highest quality criminal defense representation. He fights hard on your behalf – and he fights to win.
