Dylan Forest Taylor

The knowledge and experience is what help me understand the situation I was facing in the court system. Without the guidance from Mr. Taylor I believe I would have had a much harder time. He gave me the proper guidance and explained to me anything that I did not understand with law.

Dylan has been so helpful during my expungement. I was granted the expungement and I feel he was honest and upfront with me through the process as well as always keeping me updated. Highly recommend to anyone, I am so glad I hired Dylan!

Dylan Taylor stood up for me in the court room when four others quit the case because of my previous record. Dylan has a special place in his heart for Vietnam Veterans and I notice his courage and composure in the courtroom before I even hired hem. I knew if any lawyer could help my case he was the one that would fight for me by telling the real story and then I wouldn't haft to die a old man on prison. Thankyou Dylan Tylor Sincerely David R.

I have been a law abiding citizen of the United States of America. I have never been in trouble with the law until I was wrongfully accused and charged by the DA with a serious Misdemeanor last September 2016, thanks to my ex-wife! I was caught unawares. I already hired two criminal defense lawyers here in Salinas to handle my case and prove my innocence in court. I was bleeding financially because I was paying exorbitant attorney fees. Both of these criminal defense lawyers were telling me to take the fall and be accountable and take responsibility for my own actions. I was telling them I am innocent of the misdemeanor crime charged against me. I guess they already heard this statement "I am innocent" too many times with their clients in their years of legal practice. The second lawyer I hired told me bluntly, the actions I did were "Visceral" and "Not Virtuous" and that he cannot see a way out for me without getting a conviction. He was recommending for me to accept a plea bargain for a lesser crime like Battery or Simple Assault, nolo contendere, if ever it gets offered on the table by the DA. This was in February and early March 2017. The problem was my life, my liberty and my livelihood will go down the drain either way. I then decided to go another route and called the office of Atty. Dylan Taylor to get a third, mind you, third legal opinion. I spoke with Atty. Dylan over the phone and he immediately scheduled me for a face-to-face appointment in his office. The first question I asked was how much do I need to pay to get their legal services because I was in financial difficulties already. I was surprised how much affordable it was compared to the two previous lawyers I hired. I even joked to them that they need to review their business model because what they were charging was really a bargain compared to other lawyers in town. I digress. Atty. Taylor and Atty. Dolowich were godsend. Atty. Dylan talks the talk and walks the walk. He's the real deal. He did not promise me anything during our initial appointment, no lawyer would because they don't have a crystal ball, but I saw a glimmer of hope after that initial interaction. Atty. Dylan is very intelligent, master of his craft, professional and courteous, honest and sincere, calm and composed, has excellent customer/client service skills and most importantly for me CARING and COMPASSIONATE! I never felt these with my two previous defense lawyers. Every time I gave him a call in the office to clarify some pertinent questions about my case, Atty. Dylan would answer it if he's available otherwise he would return my call the same day and answer my queries. The same thing holds true with his partner Atty. Jamey Dolowich. When I requested an appointment in the office, they would readily accommodate me even with their busy schedules. When you are going through a serious criminal case, you want your lawyer to be available for you as the client to update you about your case and in so doing partially allay your fears and anxiety to make it more bearable . In one of our appointments, I would never forget what Atty. Dylan told me when I asked him "What are my chances if I go to a jury trial?". He calmly replied, "You have a good shot and all is not lost." That's the only thing I wanted to hear and I told him and Atty. Jamey, as long as they do their utmost best, I can live with the outcome no matter what. The outcome far exceeded my expectations. Instead of facing a nerve-racking and precarious jury trial scheduled Aug 2017, my case got finally DISMISSED in the furtherance of justice by the DA last June 2017. Thanks be to God! Thanks to Atty. Dylan Taylor and his partner Atty. Dolowich. Among the criminal defense lawyers here in Monterey County, Atty. Dylan Taylor is definitely CREME DE LA CREME! If ever you get in trouble with the law, I highly recommend the law firm of Taylor and Dolowich! You won't regret it. They will be ready to go to the mattresses to defend YOU!

Dylan Taylor handled my criminal case against me and did an excellent job in my defense to the point where I no longer had to worry or stress about the future of my career. He is the best lawyer I have worked with, from professionalism, to attention to detail, to being personable and very reachable by phone and email. He clearly care about his clients and does superb job. He is very knowledgeable, and was very team oriented in his approach with working with another professional. I don't know anyone who works harder than this guy 7 days a week, he was available for questions and consultations, and gets back to you extremely quickly so you are not left hanging. He is really great at what he does and I highly recommend him.
