About

Michael R. Taylor graduated cum laude from the University of Colorado, Denver, in 2004, with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication. Michael then worked as a manager for a retail chain and as a land surveyor. After two years of “working in the real world,” Michael decided to return to school to pursue his life-long dream of becoming a lawyer.In 2007, Michael was accepted to the University of Denver, Sturm College of Law. In law school, he worked as a teaching and research assistant for several of his professors and focused on environmental and natural resource law. Michael also completed internships with a small public land law firm and the Environmental Protection Agency’s environmental crimes prosecution division.After graduation, Michael was the domestic-judicial fellow in Colorado’s 18th Judicial District where he worked closely with judges by providing research and writing draft orders. As the fellowship came to a close, Michael was offered a position as the civil and criminal law clerk for the Honorable Judge Richard B. Caschette in Douglas County District Court. Michael was also hired as the domestic law clerk for the Honorable Angela R. Arkin, also in Douglas County District Court.  After working in the North Denver Metro area for approximately four years, Michael moved to downtown Denver and the Woody Law Firm, LLC, to expand his practice.During his time as a law clerk, Michael gained significant experience in all three disciplines, but found that he most enjoyed family law. “People law,” as Michael calls it, is truly a fulfilling way to spend his days.In his free time, Michael enjoys outdoor activities, playing guitar, cooking, and spending time with his friends and his cat.

Mr. Taylor was the second lawyer that I had with my custody and divorce case. He was very professional and knowledgeable of Colorado family law. His expertise is in 100% family law and it shows. My ex is a Narcissist and he dealt with it professionally and tactfully. He was always available to talk to me about my case and responded quickly to any questions that I had. I would recommend Mr. Taylor to anyone dealing with a custody battle.

I recently engaged Mr. Taylor on a limited scope retainer to help me with my pro se divorce. Mr. Taylor provided excellent advice and consultation during the process. He made himself available when I needed him, and maximized his billing through efficient communications. His advice proved extremely valuable to me even in the limited capacity engagement. I appreciated his, and his firm's, flexibility in offering this type of engagement as it helped me save money and avoided extended legal costs.

Mr. Taylor and his firm were the first ones in a long line, who were actually professional and efficient. At mediation, Michael saw first hand how abusive my soon to be Ex really was. Mr. Taylor not only handled my case with great care, he was incredibly efficient and accurate. He not only generated creative and very workable ideas to keep things moving (despite my ex's very rude attempts to drag things out), he was careful with his time and his billing. He is extremely resourceful and very easy to work with. While he is mild mannered and very ethical, he is also quite an effective adversary. A bit of the "Superman behind the mild mannered Clark Kent exterior". Thank you Mr. Taylor. Boulder county legal system is a far better place with you in it.
