Sherry Dawn Lankford

Attorney Sherry Lankford is an Alabama native breathing new life into Georgia’s bar.  Through years of work in retail management, she learned just how important client interaction and satisfaction are to success.  After graduating from Auburn University in 2003, Sherry moved to New York City where she practiced interior design. Searching for ways to make a more significant impact in the world, Sherry enrolled at the Thomas Goode Jones School of Law in 2010. After law school, Sherry took on a clerkship with Judge Truman Hobbes, Jr. of the 15th Judicial Circuit Court of Alabama.  While clerking, Sherry learned just how important having a great advocate is for steering the outcome of a case and vowed to be such an advocate herself.  In an effort to further broaden her perspective, Sherry moved abroad to study international law where she took a course with Chief Justice Roberts of the U.S. Supreme Court.  Following her graduation in 2012, she continued clerking for Judge Hobbes before ultimately moving into private practice where she learned civil litigation.  Wanting to reach more people, Sherry took and passed both the Alabama and Georgia State Bars and then moved to Atlanta in 2014.  She began practicing with Daniels & Taylor, P.C. in Lawrenceville, Georgia, and immediately put her skills to work helping clients throughout metro Atlanta.  Sherry’s practice has evolved from civil litigation to a significant criminal practice, and she now handles matters in criminal defense, family law (including divorce, child support, child custody, alimony, spousal support, guardianship, contempt actions, modifications, temporary protective orders), personal injury, and contracts.  In 2017, Sherry left Daniels & Taylor, P.C. to be a founding attorney with Tyler Moore Law, LLC, so she could have the freedom to put her broad range of experiences to work in serving her clients.  As a member of both the Alabama and Georgia bars, Sherry brings a unique perspective that lends itself to helping clients when no one else can find a way. Outside of the courtroom, Sherry is a devoted yoga instructor and practitioner and owns Performance Power Yoga, a fitness-based yoga studio, located in Lawrenceville’s downtown square.
