Thank you

Ms. Taylor’s firm gave us exceptional service. From initial consultation to the final signing of the expunction order, I could not have scripted it better! Thank you so much!

Changed my mind about lawyers

I found myself in need of a DWI attorney in San Antonio. I did my research and saw that Ms. Taylor's firm consistently receives positive reviews throughout different internet platforms. I have always been skeptical when it comes to lawyers - aren't they professional liars? But, I consulted with Ms.... Taylor and hired her the same day. She and her firm are different than the stereotype and she lives up to the hype. The reviews don't lie. Ms. Taylor is the real deal. If you need a lawyer, give her a call.

Best expunction lawyer

I had already paid another lawyer for my whole case - or so I thought. It was dismissed, and I was told I had paid for an expunction, but when the time came to do it, the lawyer conveniently forgot. I was sent to Ms. Taylor because her firm is known to handle things like this quickly and it’s an easy... thing for them. The fee was very reasonable, and in fact, Ms. Taylor discovered that there were some other matters that could be cleared from my record as well. The other attorney wouldn’t have done that. Could not be more appreciative. Thank you, Ms. Taylor!

Carly Taylor is LEGIT!

Oh man, where do I start? I had been living it up with my bros and was just actin a fool! Long story short I got arrested for public intoxication, which I was like ok, no big deal, just a class C, I’ll go take care of this myself at the court. Wrong! I’m not the kind of guy to know a bunch of lawyers... so I started looking around on Google and Ms. Taylor showed up as specializing in these types of cases. At the first meeting I was so nervous! But she made me feel so comfortable. She didn’t talk to me like the dumb fool I am for getting in trouble! I don’t know much legal stuff and was nervous to meet up with a lawyer, but she made sure I understood everything. I didn’t realize how just a little ticket could impact my future. Ms. Taylor took care of my case quickly and I didn’t have to do much. I couldn’t be happier and would recommend her to to all my friends. THANK YOU MS. TAYLOR!!!!

I kept my job AND my clean record!

When I was on the “wrong side” of the criminal justice system for the first time in my life, facing not only tarnishing my reputation and my clean record, but also the prospect of termination from my job, I sought out one of those big, well-known firms with big fancy law offices all over Texas. I...’m in the legal profession, but I hold a position where it would be a major conflict to have pending criminal charges - usually resulting in packing up an office as soon as word of the arrest hit - so I thought I needed a “big law” name, one of those recognizable so-and-so-&-so-and-so type firms to help me. I went that route, and I was very unhappy. I never felt heard or really that anyone actually cared about my circumstances. I was just a number. I fired that firm and needed representation. A friend of mine told me about Ms. Taylor and her experience. I met with her and was immediately put at ease. Her experience speaks for itself, but that first meeting let me know I was in good hands. She scrutinized every detail of my case and was proactive in seeking a resolution. She immediately identified what a building full of lawyers could not, and my case was dismissed. I kept my job and my clean record. Thank you, Ms. Taylor - never underestimate what ONE great lawyer can do for you!
