Case Results
Michael Taylor has a proven track record of successful outcomes for his clients. He uses his reputation and expertise to negotiate with the prosecutor for reduced or dismissed charges for clients with violent and non-violent offenses.
Some of his successful cases include:
Violent Offenses
- Homicide: He obtained a “not guilty” verdict for his client by presenting evidence that showed his client may not have been responsible for the victim’s death.
- Assault: He obtained a “not guilty” verdict for his client by showing that the client acted in self- defense.
- Rape: He presented evidence to the prosecutor that showed the sexual act between his client and the alleged victim was consensual and that the alleged victim was motivated to lie about being raped. The prosecutor, therefore, decided against filing charges.
Non-Violent Offenses
- Property Damage: He obtained a case dismissal for his client by showing at the preliminary hearing that the eyewitness testimony was false.
- Drug Possession: He obtained a “not guilty” verdict for his client by garnering witness testimony from a police officer at trial who confirmed there was no evidence that his client knew of the marijuana in her car.
- Internet Sex Crime: His client was charged with possession of child pornography. He got these charges dismissed by showing other occupants in the home who had access to the computer (where the images were found) may have been responsible for the images.
