About John
John Cyr built his legal life in the courts and bar rooms of Washington. He studied at Gonzaga University and then attended Seattle University School of Law. Those years set the groundwork for a career tied to both local and federal practice.
He serves as managing partner at Cavalry Law Office. In that role he oversees cases and the day-to-day operations of the firm. Colleagues describe him as steady in managing a small firm's competing demands, handling intake, strategy and courtroom preparation.
Cyr is active in several professional associations. He has been a member of the King County Bar Association since 2012 and joined the Federal Bar Association in 2013. He is also listed with the Washington Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers since 2014. Those memberships place him regularly in the company of trial lawyers, public defenders and federal practitioners.
His work has frequently brought him to both state and federal courthouses in Washington. He handles matters that require courtroom presence and that often involve criminal defense issues, and he appears before judges at multiple levels. The combination of bar involvement and practice responsibilities keeps him engaged on procedural and substantive developments in criminal law and federal litigation.
Outside of hearings, Cyr spends time mentoring younger lawyers at his firm and coordinating with other local practitioners on case strategy. He also monitors changes in local court rules and federal procedures that affect his clients. His calendar typically reflects a mix of pretrial work, motion practice and trial preparation.
He maintains his practice in Washington through Cavalry Law Office. He practices from that office, handling criminal defense and matters in federal court.
