Taylor Anderson Law Firm

5.0 / 5.0
Bob J.

Taylor helped me with a contractor dispute. Taylor provided an honest assessment of the situation before taking my case. He was able to obtain a settlement 3 times what was originally offered in a short amount of time. Highly recommended!

Kalle-Erik V.

I got run over by a car right next to his office, and so it was the natural place to take my case to. The service I received was great, and at all points everything was clearly explained to me in my personal injury case. He was easily reachable by telephone and I never felt like I was out of the loop. I have no complaints and can definitely recommend him to others without a doubt.

Jennifer C.

Taylor helped us through a hit and run boating accident that occurred in Florida(a little complicated since I reside in SC), but he was great and he got my daughter a nice settlement for her severe injuries. He was great to work with, especially since this was all done in the middle of covid and in the middle of the case I was deployed to the Middle East which he made seamless. Communication is key and he was awesome with communication and letting us know where the case was every step of the way! He is very easy to work with whether it be in person, via zoom, email or a phone call! I highly recommend him for your legal needs!

Jaquietta B.
