Mr. Taylor was very helpful and understanding as this was our first experience with any law matters. He(his office)was very compassionate and accessible to us, whenever we needed him. Thank you and would recommend him to anyone.

For the first time in my life I needed an attorney. I had no idea where to start so I asked a retired judge who he would recommend to defend me and he immediately said Mr. Daniel J. Taylor. I am so thankful that he sent me his way. Mr. Taylor was very responsive right from the start and was able to explain things in a way that was very easy for me to understand. I felt like my case was a priority and that he looked out for my best interest. He was incredibly knowledgeable and he got the case dismissed and expunged from my record. I was pleased with the fee he charged and thought it was very reasonable for the service he provided. I would definitely recommend Mr. Daniel J. Taylor to my friends and family if they find themselves in need a good attorney.

There’s no point in trying to sugarcoat it, I recommend you calling on Attorney, Daniel Taylor for any and all of your legal matters. He’s a big-time attorney, in a small town (Jackson, Tennessee),but has reach across the entire state. I would suggest before shopping around for an attorney, contact Attorney Daniel Taylor @ 731-300-1592. His initial consultation with you will bring clarity and understanding on strategies best suited for your case. He has superior knowledge of the legal system for the state of Tennessee to include the skill set to deal with oppositions that your case might face. Result: The case ended, before it started! Never appeared in court or dealt with circumstances that could have cost me my career. My family and I put our trust in Attorney Daniel Taylor! He worked hard for us, while I am confident that he will do the same for your family. Everyone needs an Attorney they can trust. I am glad to say, after 10 plus years, we still keep in touch.

He was very clear, understanding and I'll be using him again if needed. He was able to do this quickly and without troubles, after I considered it a list cause. He's very professional and should be first choice to anyone

Mr. Taylor is very professional and wise. I was being held hostage at a jail for 2 years with serious charges against me. Mr. Taylor and his hard working assistant Robin rescued me from the injustice that was being done to me. I'm a free man today because of the great work they did for me. Mr. Taylor is dedicated to the work he does. I forgot and called his office on a holiday once and he answered, because he was at his office working. I was found not guilty of the charges of rape, aggravated assault, and domestic assault including all the lesser charges. I was completely exonerated and set free thanks to the hard work of Mr. Taylor and his excellent assistant Robin.

Mr. Taylor is very knowledgeable in this field. He was calm and reassuring, where I was anxious, nervous, and impatient. He told me what was to be expected and what was going to happen. He made it possible to make contact with all parties involved with my case and find out any information that would help Mr with my case. Yes, I would recommend Mr. Daniel Taylor to anyone that requires a thorough defense attorney.

I enjoyed working with him. He either, answered his calls (without screening them) or called me back immediately.

I used Daniel Taylor back in 2022 and it was a disaster, he never communicated with me about my case and went along with everything that the prosecuting attorney said, I was charged with dui of alcohol and when my blood test came back negative, he almost seemed mad because it wasn’t positive.. so he should’ve walked away with a win and I should’ve went home but instead he let them send the test back off and when I came back they said my prescription levels were high!! So I had to pay the fine and spend 10 more days In jail!! Long story short if you wanna go to jail hire Daniel Taylor!! Oh yeah yeah it also took 11 months before blood test came back and had me drive there 6 times and I live 2 hours away..

Your car hit a bridge & wrecked. You agreed to the blood test. You tested no alcohol but positive for 4 narcotic drugs, 2 at high levels. Instead of a DUI 3rd, 120 days, you got DUI 1st at 10 days. 5 other charges were dismissed. We talked 11 times.
