About Alexander Floyd
Alexander Floyd Ransom built his legal foundation at Seattle University School of Law, where he earned his Juris Doctor in 2003. He supplemented that education the following year by completing an advanced trial advocacy diploma at the National Institute for Trial Advocacy. Those early training choices point to a practical, courtroom-oriented approach to practice.
He moved into criminal defense work after law school. Early years in practice were focused on courtroom procedure and client representation at all stages of criminal cases. The NITA diploma reinforced trial skills and strategy. Ransom’s background reflects repeated exposure to jury trials and contested hearings rather than a purely transactional caseload.
Ransom is a member of several professional organizations tied to criminal defense and local practice. He holds memberships in the Washington Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and the Washington Defender Association. He is also active in the Whatcom County Bar Association. Those affiliations keep him connected to state-level defense issues and to the local bar community.
He runs his own practice, operating as the owner of the Law Office Alexander F. Ransom, PLLC. He handles matters across the Washington jurisdiction. The office model centers on individualized client work and courtroom representation. Ransom’s practice reflects the mix of public defense-oriented association ties and private practice experience.
Colleagues describe him as someone who prioritizes preparation before court and values direct communication with clients. He has used his NITA training to refine cross-examination and case presentation skills. Much of his caseload has involved contested criminal matters that require in-court advocacy. He also takes on related pretrial motion work and sentencing advocacy. He maintains professional ties to organizations that address defense practice standards and continuing education. Ransom currently practices criminal defense and trial work in Washington.
