Construction Zone Help

Mrs. Taylor helped me get a traffic ticket reduced since the construction zone was not marked properly. She personally researched the unplanned maintenance and was able to get my ticket dropped. I have heard from friends that she is very good with all kinds of major tickets and arrests, primarily foc...using on DWIs. I hope I don't have to hire here again and definitely will if needed

A lawyer's lawyer

Ms. Taylor is professional and knowledgable and tenacious. She was adamant that there was a fatal legal flaw with my case and did not stop until it was dismissed. I am an attorney myself in a different area of law, and I can say she was probably one of the best and most capable attorneys I have met... - and I know many great barristers! Her grasp of the ins and outs of criminal law was very impressive. If you find yourself in need of assistance in a criminal matter, look NOWHERE else and just make the call and hire Ms. Taylor and her team. TEAM TAYLOR all the way!

Thankful for this firm!

I was visiting Austin and caught a case while there. I asked my friends who live there who I should hire to handle the case in the best way, and Ms. Taylor and her firm were recommended by multiple friends. She handled my case quickly and with an outcome I never dreamed would happen. Beyond satisf...ied. She and her firm seem well-acquainted with the courts and have good working relationships with everyone. 10/10 would recommend.

Great Austin/San Antonio Attorney

I live in Austin but got in some trouble while visiting my college buddies in San Antonio. I asked some of my attorney friends for a referral of an attorney to fight an intoxication case. Several people recommended Ms. Taylor. She seemed like a good fit since I could meet with her at the Austin offic...e and didn’t have to travel back to San Antonio, except for required court appearances. She is also very experienced in these matters. Ms. Taylor thoroughly investigated my case and did everything she could to get me the best resolution possible. She made sure I was excused from court, and I only had to appear for a final disposition. She kept me informed of everything that was going on and made sure I fully understood every step of the process. Now this case isn’t hanging over my head and I can get on with my life—and we made sure my record was preserved. Thankful my friends knew of a fantastic lawyer and grateful for a smart and capable defender in Ms. Taylor. I would trust her to represent any of my friends or family.

Anonymous

I had a youthful indiscretion many years ago. I thought after having a case dismissed it would no longer be an issue in my life. However, when I applied for my private pilot's license, I discovered that even a dismissal on a very low-level offense can be an ordeal later in life. I did some research o...n my own and discovered that I could get my record expunged. I sought Ms. Taylor's counsel, and she advised me that she could easily handle this matter for me. Once I hired her, my old case became a thing of the past. Actually it became NOTHING. Now, I can proceed with my pilot's license, and any other endeavor, and never have to disclose anything because it is now expunged. Thank you, Ms. Taylor!
