Excellent lawyer and a very nice person

I had a consultation with miss Taylor regarding international marriage. Miss Taylor explained the legal aspect and the required paperwork. She is also a very nice person pleasant to work with!

Big thank you

Ms. Taylor assisted me concerning a domestic matter. Her meticulous attention to detail and legal knowledge resulted in a successful outcome for me and my family. As important as her knowledge and legal expertise was the empathy, concern and compassion she showed me throughout the process. She... listened and, based on my situation, explained to me (in lay person terms) how the law would protect me and my family--all of which gave me the strength to follow through and make wise decisions and navigate through an extremely difficult time. For these reasons, I highly recommend her.

Excellent Thorough Sensitive & Caring

I am extremely happy with the level of attention Maria gave me and my case. She is so knowledgeable about not only the legal aspect of a family law-divorce case, but also the emotional toll and tactics used by the parties to guilt the other. She helped me get the results I wanted and kept me sane. R...eally hands on, and works with you, not just for you. You'll be happy with Maria's services. I know I am. And have referred several friends to her too.

The Best Lawyer!

I had a very difficult situation when I was going through divorce. Maria Taylor was my attorney and she helped so much to resolve my case and get the best outcome. She was always available for me when I was reaching out to her sometimes even after business hours to get her advice and support. Maria i...s very intelligent, knowledgeable and professional lawyer. I also used her service for my Prenup and Postnup agreements knowing that she is very straightforward and honest lawyer.

Excellent Attorney

I hired Ms. Taylor for a complicated & difficult family law case. She is a top-rate attorney. She is thorough and personable. She takes the time to explain the intricacies of the law from the beginning to the end of the case process. Ms. Taylor is concise, knowledgable and excellent in court. I hi...ghly recommend Ms. Taylor as an attorney.

Family lawyer | Nov 19

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Ms. Taylor is a consummate professional. I have been a legal professional and trial attorney for approximately 20 years . I have known and/or worked with a broad swath of Attorneys in all of California's six Southernmost Counties. I have worked with Ms. Taylor on many legal matters in several different Counties. Ms. Taylor is as knowledgeable, thorough, diligent, honest, skilled and aggressive as any Attorney I have known, or with whom I have closely worked, in my 20 year career. She bills very fairly. She gets to the heart of the matter. She gives honest advice. She fights hard for her Clients, and she wins. Anyone needing highly-experienced and wise legal counsel should retain her and trust her and follow her advice. Ms. Taylor gets my highest endorsement, and my strongest recommendations, without any hesitation."
