Hunter Craft graduated as the Casey Presidential Scholar from Baylor University with a B.B.A. in Finance, and earned his Doctor of Jurisprudence from Baylor University School of Law.  He began his legal career in litigation defense of business and catastrophic injury disputes at Fulbright & Jaworski, L.L.P.

Later that year, at age 29, he was elected a “Texas Super Lawyer" for the first time, making him the youngest such recipient in the history of the award. He has subsequently received this honor numerous times. He was chosen as one of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers and the Top 40 Under 40 by the National Trial Lawyers. He has received numerous other professional awards and recognitions, but cares most of all for the results he is able to obtain for his clients.
