Taylor was selected to the Top 50 Women Lawyers in Texas by Super Lawyers in 2022, as a Texas Rising Star for the past five years, and a Rising Star Top 100 Lawyer and Top 50 Up-and-Coming Women Lawyers in 2021. She was also named among a “Women to Watch” in the Women Who Mean Business by the Houston Business Journal in 2021.
Her expertise includes premarital and post-marital agreements, as well as complex property division, highly contentious custody cases, and appeals. A unique part of Taylor’s practice involves drafting divorce provisions in shareholder and other operating agreements to safeguard business owners, their partners, and investors from the potential instability that often arises during a divorce.
Further, as an adult-child of divorce, Taylor uniquely understands that divorce constitutes a traumatic event for most individuals and families and that the collateral damage that can result from the same must not be ignored when representing her clients.
Taylor, along with her team at Toombs Imel & Associates, is committed to providing her clients with dedicated, zealous, and results-oriented representation before, during, and after litigation.
Passionate about giving back. Taylor directly supports Houston’s Small Steps Nurturing Center, which provides an exemplary early childhood program to assist economically at-risk children and their families.
Taylor is board certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML). She received her JD from Southern Methodist University in 2010 and was a dean’s scholarship recipient. A natural competitor (both in and out of the courtroom), Taylor attended Wake Forest University on a full athletic scholarship for women’s soccer. Taylor is also a member of the HBA Gender Fairness Committee and a member of the Greater Houston Women’s Chamber of Commerce 40 Under 40 Advisory Board.
