Taylor & Ring
John Taylor is considered one of California’s most respected trial lawyers having tried more than 125 cases and obtained record-setting verdicts/settlements on cases that range from police misconduct and civil rights violations to horrific sexual abuse, complex personal injury, and wrongful death. Within the past two months, Taylor has obtained several record-breaking successes: a $5 million settlement, the largest in the nation on behalf of a female trainee truck driver who was raped by her supervising co-driver; and a $950,000 settlement, the largest from a skilled nursing facility that illegally dumped a man on LA’s Skid Row. Recently, in a high-profile case, Taylor filed a lawsuit on behalf of the wife and children of Kurt Reinhold, a Black man who was shot and killed by the OC Sheriff’s Deputies in September 2020 in a case that garnered national media attention.
