Carly Taylor is a battle-tested trial attorney with a powerful record of success both prosecuting and defending a wide-range of criminal charges throughout Texas.
Nationally recognized as an elite advocate, Ms. Taylor has worked on nearly every type of criminal case, from misdemeanors to murder. The breadth and depth of her experience allows Ms. Taylor to construct complex and strategic defenses, while expertly identifying weaknesses in the State’s case.
Born and raised in the beautiful Texas Hill Country, Ms. Taylor grew up in the small town of Kerrville, with big dreams of becoming an attorney. Upon graduating from Tivy High School (2004), she earned a full academic scholarship to Texas A&M University. While in College Station, Ms. Taylor received a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Management (B.B.A. 2007), and was an active member of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority.
Moving to Houston in 2008, Mr. Taylor began her legal studies at South Texas College of Law (J.D. 2011), and completed an internship with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office – one of the largest prosecuting offices in the United States.
A little girl’s dream became a young woman’s passion for advocacy and the courtroom, as Ms. Taylor began her legal career proudly representing the State of Texas as a prosecutor.
Throughout years of public service, Ms. Taylor became disillusioned after witnessing firsthand the abuses of discretion by those who wear the proverbial “white hat.” These experiences led her to leave the badge behind, rededicating her career to fighting for the citizen accused, while seeking accountability for those that abuse the privilege of power.
In 2022, Ms. Taylor joined Trey Porter Law to add her dynamic skills and deep experience to the firm’s established foundation of delivering uncompromising results and client-first service.

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.

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...

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...
