Worst represention I could have ever got. After two years almost she shows up not prepared. Missing a whole injury in the argument. Allows the defense to say my prior boxing had left me with injuries from 20 years ago. Even though I have no boxing injuries or anything stated that it was a prior injury just a health injury. Healed fracture that definitely could came from a injury a month prior. Went on to argue with me after the case till they asked us to stop in the court house. Stated that a restaurant job lifting plates and cutting meat was the same as a fedex job throwing 150lb boxes and running shuttles. Lol I really felt she was working for them. Please do not use these people I was robbed of 2 years and they ruined my defense. BBB next

Very experienced, helpful, great follow up. Have been referring to him for YEARS! Definitely gives attention, understanding and patience to very complicated issues & situations. HONEST!

Judging by all of these glowing reviews, perhaps my significant other and I had an isolated scenario. My girlfriend and I got in a car accident. I googled the best lawyers and Portner and Shure came up. I was matched with the paralegal Diane Lazzo or Lazlo IDR.... The only time I had a phone call that lasted more than 2 minutes was our initial conversation. SO UNRESPONSIVE! Diane would NOT respond to texts, emails or calls. Whenever she would respond it, would be from some burner Google voice number! She was NEVER in the office. I would leave messages to some other woman regardless if it was the Frederick location or the one closer to DC. I once had to use the contact form on their site to finally reach her smh. I made one appointment with her and an hour before I came (I was over an hour away) I called to reschedule and Diane wasn't even THERE! I think she wasn't even going bother to let me know she wasn't in the office. You know? Just let me come all that way and deal with whomever was there! We felt like because we were a simple car accident or something that perhaps we were not as important as other clients. No follow up AT ALL! I- MYSELF did said follow ups and sometimes to no avail as I mentioned earlier. After I was silent for almost 4 months Diane hit me from another throw away drug dealer number. She called herself asking about my progress. I told her that she was terrible at her job and to give my files to the next more competent paralegal/firm lol! The people are nice. The firm seems very, very legitimate. That's one star. But, as for my experience, they get a one star. Two star total. So wack... Unless you're a big dog- don't waste your time with Portner and Shure. And if you happen to get Diane Lazwhatever as your paralegal... run!

Extremely professional and very knowledgeable! We were very happy working with Mr. Taylor on creating our Wills and Power of Attorney documents. Highly recommend his services.

At no fault of my own, I was in a three car accident in January 2020. I knew early on in dealing with multiple insurances and claim officers that I needed a good attorney! A lifelong friend of mine had referred me to Samuel E. Taylor. Sam had previously handled several accident and title cases on her families behalf. With over 30 years experience Sam has much to offer his clients, like good advice. By good advice I mean to say not to procrastinate important matters on your own behalf, like being consistent with doctors appointments, therapy, etc. In the short term taking the time to do your part as the client will be of tremendous help in strengthening your case. In the long term by doing your part it will provide the best results for you (the client) physically, mentally and monetarily. Sam has a clear and rational understanding of how to sperate possibilities from probabilities. Never making false promises yet he is always trying to achieve the most positive outcome. Sam was able to negotiate with people who were not looking out for my best interest, including my own insurance company! Although every case is different Sam was able to negotiate my medical bills and treatment to less than 1/3 of the original amount. Putting more money in my pocket after settlement. No matter how much or how little your claim is worth "the victim is always the victim" Hiring a professional & experienced attorney such as Samuel E. Taylor will certainly help ease the agony of dealing with matters on your own. Especially if your like me and have no idea what you are doing... Thank you Sam for a job well done! T .Mitchell

I really didn’t know what I needed, but I wanted to make sure that all of my property would go to the people I wanted it to go to with as little hassle and expense as possible. Mr. Taylor took time to explain every possibility and what he felt was best for my situation. Thanks Mr. Taylor!

Sam has been an excellent resource for me in multiple situations requiring legal intervention and counsel. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for help with business contracts or any other legal needs.

We hired Mr. Taylor to draft wills and an advanced medical directive for my wife and I. He was very thorough, and he took his time to explain each section of the documents prior to us signing.

I needed a contract for a business transaction to be completed quickly, and Sam had it finished 2 days before I expected it. Thanks Sam!

I have worked with Scott on several difficult elder law situations. His compassionate approach to his work made him easy to work with. He is a great resource and always very supportive.
