Saved my job

I got pulled over after a long shift and got charged with a DWI for being tired and Ms. Taylor took care of everything and got my record cleared.

Grateful mother

I got pulled over after having a few glasses of wine at a mom/kids play date. I was always taught to cooperate with the police and agreed to do all the tests and everything. I was charged with a DWI - and it was a felony because my child was in the car. The worst experience of my life. Thank God for ...Ms. Taylor and her team. She is a mom too and helped me feel as good as I could about this nightmare. I was terrified of facing a felony, but she worked so hard for me and I ended up without a felony charge. I didn't even get a DWI. She was able to work my case out on a completely different charge. I could not be more grateful to her hard work and dedication to my case. My family and I are so grateful to Ms. Taylor!

I can still do what I love!

I am an educator and a DWI conviction will absolutely get you fired. I was arrested for DWI and so worried that I would not get to continue to do what I really love. I just knew this was it and I would lose my job and would not be able to continue to teach and coach special needs children anymore. On...e mistake was going to ruin my life. But, Ms. Taylor’s firm saved my life! She fought my case and I not only kept my job, I am now the head of my department. I could not be more grateful. Thank you Ms. Taylor and team!

Past mistakes erased!

So I’m a “second career lawyer.” That’s what they call old guys in law school. Old is 30! I was in the military and went to undergrad and law school a little later in life. In my younger days, I got a ticket for PI that was dismissed - so I didn’t think much about it. However, when I graduated from ...law school, with impeccable credentials by the way, I was told there was a blemish in my background that needed correction. I was recommended Ms. Taylor’s firm and she promptly filed an expunction for me based on the circumstances of my case. Now this stupid mistake in my youth won’t take away from my years of service to my country and the doors that has opened for me. I am very grateful to be a part of the same legal community as this fine attorney!

Future Preserved!

When my underage son got in trouble for drinking and driving I was not only livid at his irresponsibility, but I was also fearful for his future and the implications that this would have on his college plans.  I was recommended to hire Ms. Taylor.  She and her firm took such good care of not only my ...son, but me as well.  Being a mom herself she was able to counsel both of us and understood that I wanted to be kept in the loop.  As soon as we hired her, she began working on his case, and we reached a resolution that will preserve his future and make sure that he has no barriers to obtaining higher education and beyond.  I cannot thank her enough for her personal understanding and her professionalism!
