Verified ClientHired Law firm 2021Zilla Taylor and Mr. Gore and their firm represented me expertly and with the desired outcome in a traffic citation. The process from start to finish was clear, easy to provide the necessary information, and without my having to take off work to travel to court. The fee was fair and I would not hesitate to seek them out if I or my friends and family need an attorney. Zilla's response to my phone call was immediate, responsive, and reassuring during a stressful period of time since receiving a speeding ticket is not a happy event. They are rock stars who value clients. Thank you!!

Hired Law firm 2025-2026I got a call that my mother n law was dying from a local facility near Whiteville NC , As I was traveling at a high rate of speed I was pulled over by a N.C. state trooper, I was written a citation for wrecklace driving and speed 25 miles an hour over the speed limit. I had just moved here to the area and had big plans in a Career I dearly love , With that being said , When this happened I was so torn , stressed, Mentally exhausted, Fearful I would not get the job , Because the job is part of a state and federal facility I would be working at , And if these charges would have went against me , For one I would not have gotten the job , And I would not have been able to drive a state or county job due to the effects this would have put on my life , Not done yet , Not only that , I would have lost over 250,000 on a home that I couldn’t afford if I lost the job I applied for , And I’m just so grateful God put me in touch with this very godly Firm that stands and will go to bat for u , And I’m just a outsider from WV with no ties to anyone or anything, When I contacted the staff they was very confident they could get a reduction of the speed , But I’m going to tell u Now they took this by the horns and did not let up and didn’t blink an eye on trying to help a Man from WV new to the area , They said u don’t have to do a thing just let us handle it , I didn’t have to go to court , I didn’t have to do anything but my contract, The office staff was very intelligent and very friendly Even tho I wasn’t even from this area at all , They went to the battle ground and came out Victorious, So this was the results of my case Are U Ready , or should I make u wait and tell u lol , So I got a call from there highly profiled professionals and it was probably one of the best calls I’ve had in my life , It was too tell me that MR. White we have gotten everything dismissed for u , Tears of joy run down my face thanking god for giving these professionals the knowledge, strength, the fight , ambition, integrity, And most of all a very godly atmosphere, I just can’t say enough, But I don’t care who u are or where u are from if u don’t use this firm . Then u probably better examine yourself a little bit , u have seen what they did for just a WV boy with know personal ties to anyone around , I CAN TELL U KNOW, I’m A private investigator and I’ve worked all over this country for lawyers and really big firms doing what I do But they are number 1 in the country by far , In my opinion this firm should open up a office nationwide, u just can go down on the corner somewhere and find this kind of professionalism, And that’s even from the initial call that I made all the way down to that Female attorney that moved the mountains for an ole WV boy like me , I’m just so blessed god has good workers in the field like this , godbless your whole staff, I owe yall so much gratitude and thanks

Hired Law firm 2023I contacted Mr. Gore at the recommendation of a friend who is a well-known attorney in Raleigh. From our initial contact, Mr. Gore and his excellent legal assistant Zilla were responsive, reliable and incredibly easy to work with. Throughout the case, I was told what to expect (without any unrealistic promises about the outcome) and given excellent advice about how to set myself up for a good result. All of the advice proved to be spot on. The outcome of the hearing was the best possible result that could have been achieved. Mr. Gore’s knowledge of the procedures and the court was key to our success. I was extremely pleased with the entire case, and would enthusiastically recommend the Gore firm to anyone who needed legal services in Eastern NC.
