The best in the business - no question!
After being scammed and taken for a ride right into an unjust plea by a previous representative (I hesitate to even call him a lawyer) my family and I were desperate to appeal our case and clear our name. After being given Neil's contact information by a family friend, we immediately went to see him....

Co-Counsel
My firm has engaged Neil Taylor as co-counsel on several complex litigation cases wherein we required Neil's superior litigation skills and knowledge to successfully represent our clients.

Extremely satisfied with the help I recieved from Neil.

Neil G Taylor's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have been practicing law for 20+ yrs. For as long as I have known Neil Taylor, I have been recommending that clients retain him for serious matters. Unlike most attorneys, Mr. Taylor tries cases, has been doing so for decades - and everyone knows it. That's the kind of lawyer you need in life and death situations when your freedom, your life, your well-being and that of your family is in limbo. When you retain Mr. Taylor, you and your family can be confident that you did everything you can to improve your situation. He is a fighter and is well respected by the state/government side as well as judges. I was told stories of him, and eventually met him from judge and law enforcement friends. He focuses 100% of his practice on the defense of individuals accused of crimes. I know from the personal accounts of people I have referred to his firm that he doesn't take freedom lightly. He's suited for the most complex white-collar matters as well as more common DUI and trafficking cases."
"Neil is one of the most talented criminal defense attorneys in town. He uses his wealth of experience, knowledge and street smarts to get his clients the best results. Anyone who hires him makes a great choice."
"I endorse this lawyer. We have worked closely together on cases from time to time for 30 years. He is a skilled litigator who uses his full efforts to get the best possible result for his clients."
"Neil Taylor is a talented strategist and trial lawyer. He is smart, creative, hard-working, and a vigorous advocate for his clients."
"I have known Neil Taylor for well over 30 years, as both a prosecutor and defense lawyer. He is a skilled, thoughtful, and tenacious advocate for his clients. I recommend him highly."
"I have known Neil for over 25 years. I can attest to the fact that he is one of the most fearless and dedicated criminal defense lawyers I have had the pleasure of working with in my 38 years of practice. He is always thinking of what is in the client's best interest and his focus on strategy and preparation to achieve that best interest is a hallmark of his practice. I recommend him unequivocally."
"I endorse this lawyer. Neil is an outstanding attorney and is well versed in the law and is great with people. He is tenacious and meticulous in his approach and always gets results. I always turn to Neil for criminal law expertise."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known and worked on cases with Neil Taylor for thirty years. He is brilliant and aggressive and extremely compassionate. He has empathy for his clients and understands the positions in which they find themselves. He is a former Assistant US Attorney. Neil always has his clients' "back".

Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2005.
Admonishment issued in FL, 2005
updated on 11/28/2016An admonition means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The Bar gives the lawyer an admonition in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
Neil’s comment:
“The Admonishment (a warning) was a result of a federal indictment (which says all you need to know about the quality of the case). After two trials (in 1992) in U.S. District Court, the prosecution did not want to go forward a third time. I now understand what being charged means and it has made me a better, more determined attorney. And my rating is still 10!”
