About Taylor & Ring

Taylor & Ring, a Los Angeles-based trial law firm, represents plaintiffs across California in personal injury, wrongful death, and sexual assault/abuse matters.

Taylor & Ring handles a broad spectrum of civil litigation on behalf of seriously-injured or financially-harmed individuals, consumers, and businesses. The firm prides itself on the results it obtains for its clients in difficult, complex, and emotionally-charged cases. The firm's two name partners, John C. Taylor and David M. Ring, are experienced trial lawyers who take a hands-on approach with their cases.

John C. Taylor has practiced law in Los Angeles for over 40 years. He is a member of the prestigious American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA) and a past recipient of the Los Angeles Trial Lawyer of the Year award in two different years, one from the Los Angeles plaintiff trial lawyers' organization and the other from the respected legal publication "Verdictum Juris." He has obtained many precedent-setting jury verdicts in high-profile cases. More recently, he was inducted into the 2026 Lawdragon Hall of Fame, which is an honor bestowed on attorneys with impactful careers.

David M. Ring has practiced law in Los Angeles for over 30 years. He was recognized as being one of ten up and coming lawyers in California in 2002 by The Daily Journal. Mr. Ring has also been selected as one of the "Top 100" lawyers in Southern California for six out of the past seven years (2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, and 2013) by the respected Super Lawyers publication. He has been on the Board of Governors of the Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles (CAALA) since 2005 and currently serves as the second vice president for CAALA's Executive Committee. Mr. Ring has obtained many multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements in personal injury, sexual assault and child sexual abuse cases, including an $18.6 million jury verdict on behalf of an injured motorcycle rider and a $10.8 million jury verdict on behalf of a boy who was sexually abused by his teacher.

Both Mr. Taylor and Mr. Ring are listed in Woodward & White's "The Best Lawyers in America," and both were selected as two of the "Top 100 Lawyers" in Southern California by "Los Angeles" magazine's 2025 Super Lawyers edition.

The firm carries the highest legal ability rating in Martindale-Hubbell.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
