Patrick Silva, Criminal defense Attorney on Dec 26, 2013

I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Taylor has the unique ability to "pull a rabbit out of his hat". What does that mean? Well, when the cards are stacked against your client and everyone thinks that he is guilty, then BOOM! James Taylor walks his client out of the courtroom with a Not Guilty verdict. Mr. Taylor even got a Not Guilty verdict when his client made a taped confession to a murder charge. Mr. Taylor is the master during trial! Why is Mr. Taylor so successful? I believe that his success starts with the compassion that he has for his clients and the fact that he takes every case personally and vows to do his very best for every client.
