I became involved with the juvenile court shortly after beginning private practice. I have represent parents, serve as a guardian ad litem in dependency cases involving DFCS and in private cases, as well as have defended juveniles who have been charged with all types of charges.

Great Attorney

After meeting with 5 other attorneys in Newnan, David was the most honest & humble. He is deserving of more than 5 stars. He is more than fair & knowledgeable. I was very happy with the outcome of his work and his entire law firm.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"David is a great lawyer that knows how to relate to his clients and other attorneys in the community. David was always fair when we were on opposing sides of a case. I have had the recent experience of working on the same side of a case with David, which is certainly preferable to going up against him! You won't go wrong with David Taylor."
