Tom represented me after I was involved in a terrible car accident. I received a settlement to cover medical expenses as well as the pain and suffering I endured after the accident occured. Tom worked diligently to get me what I felt I deserved in a prompt and professional manner. If given the choice again, I wouldn't have done it any other way, or with anyone else representing me. He was without a doubt, the best attorney I could have hoped for. Thank you for everything you did for me Tom.
Best,
Noah
When my former orthodontist went out of practice and I had paid in full for treatment, his office informed me I am out of luck although they had other orthodontists there to treat patients. My husband and I hired Tom. He was very quick in responses back and forth with the office. We quickly reached a settlement that gave me enough money to continue care elsewhere. I appreciated his demeanor, positive outlook, and thoroughness. We have used Tom before after having children we used him to create our Will. Tom seems to be the expert in this matter and was very knowledgable.
This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Real Estate Law and Contract
We were interested in purchasing a lot that was in a complicated real estate contract - prospective buyer was dragging it on and on. We used Tom to review the contract, and he found a clear breach of contract. We purchased the land within a few weeks. A month later we got a letter from that prospective buyer's attorney threatening to pursue legal action against us. Tom quickly dissolved the matter for us, and we never heard from them again.
We've used Tom for many other attorney needs over the past decade and are very happy with him and his staff.

Drew up a Will for my family & helped us out when our insurance company tried to screw us over.
Years ago I was in a wreck, where I was NOT in the fault. However, my insurance company wanted to apportion blame to me at 50% and thereby have just cause to raise my rates. Tom Taylor wrote a series of letters to the insurance company, detailing how I was NOT in the wrong. It took a while on the insurance company's end, but finally they saw reason and my rates did NOT go up. Whew!
From there, I decided to use him to draw up a Will for my family. Tom was very thorough, making sure every "i' was dotted and every "t" was crossed, bringing up scenarios and details that I would never think of. What I especially liked about it was... he wasn't pushy in his approach... he just made good sense from his years of experience.
From there, I decided to go to Taylor Law to form a couple of businesses that my wife and I wanted to form. It was such a smooth process - and quick! He was very knowledgeable regarding which type of entity to choose and the pros/cons of each.
So from almost getting screwed over by my (old) insurance company, to getting a Will drawn up for my family, to helping us form two businesses... Tom Taylor is definitely my go-to attorney!

"I have worked with Tom for a couple years. He has decades of experience and is vastly knowledgeable, methodical, capable, and under-priced.
His estate planning, business, contract, and all other legal documents are clear, concise, and plainly understandable to the point of being, arguably, the best there is available in Washington State.
Every provision added is thought of, or added, by him for a reason (no re-selling of boilerplate), and you can be confident they will accomplish what you intend, and if challenged prevail in court."

"Tom is a walking encyclopedia of legal knowledge. He's been practicing law for over 40 years, all of it in Tumwater. The breadth of his experience is amazing. Before going into private practice, he was a deputy prosecuting attorney, a Tumwater city attorney, and a law clerk for the State Supreme Court. As an attorney working in his firm, he has been an invaluable resource for me when it comes to questions of estate planning, guardianship, probate, and/or real estate transactions."
