She advises organizations on statutory and procedural issues, including class certification, arbitration, and federal jurisdiction.

Taylor has significant experience defending contract disputes, patent and trade secret cases, class action litigation, product liability, insurance defense cases, and other property and business disputes involving valuable company assets requiring protection. Taylor has obtained successful results at every stage of these proceedings, from temporary restraining orders to dispositive motions to jury verdicts and appeals in state and federal courts. She is also an active member of the firm’s rail industry defense efforts.

As a former federal appellate law clerk, Taylor maintains a substantial appellate practice, counseling clients through all stages of appeals, including briefing and oral argument. She has helped clients secure significant judgments in federal appellate courts across the country.
