Jamey and Dylan(and staff) was AMAZING! Seriously. I called around to others in the area- having never been arrested, in jail or anything like this before, I didn't know what to expect. The first person I called was rude, he had been practicing DUI cases in Monterey for many years, and I am sure he was knowledgeable, but I didn't trust him the ways I trusted Jamey; right from the start, he was kind and very professional. He seems like a good guy too, a straight-talker who is down to earth, and smart. Anyhow, that was my initial impression and my gut was right! This was one, if not, the worst thing to ever happen to me. I needed someone to walk me through the journey and I got more than I expected. So my story - I was knocked out. I was on vacation in Canery Row and parked my car on the street set a 2 hour timer on my phone and went to my favorite restaurant in the area. Time passed, plans changed, and the timer went off, I booked a hotel nearby. As I went to move the rental car one tenth of the mile away, in to valet, something hit the back of my car. I come to learn someone on a skateboard lost control of their skateboard and it hit the back of the rental car. I didn't know what had happened, for all I knew, another car could have hit the back of my car. So I got out to see what happened and a large man came charging at me, I turned around to get back in the car, and that's when I was knocked out. This all happened within seconds of getting out to see if anyone was hurt based off the bang I heard, in the middle of bumper to bumper traffic, on Canery Row. Minutes later, police and ambulance came, witnesses described that the man had run away. The police officer was a complete jerk, newer on the force(Jamey tells me) - no field sobriety test was given. They arrived when I was on the sidewalk, bleeding and in shock at what happened. Instead of being treated like a victim, I was handcuffed because they smelt whiskey on my breath. I spent the next 48 hours in a holding cell, it was like what I imagine hell to be like, very sad. Since the officer was horrible, he failed to follow correct procedure. Jamey reviewed the body footage and advised the Judge to do so too. Because of this insight Jamey had, the DMV through out the case entirely. Typically, this sort of thing carries 1 year mandatory suspension of license. I had a BAC of .089, which is right at the bottom of the legal limit. Jamey told me from day one that he would push for me to get a reduction of the charge to a "Wet Reckless"(carries lower fines and not a DUI charge). One 12 hour class later and approximately $1000 in fines, I have moved on with my life. Everytime I thought of that evening, I would get irate. I actually have had to stop thinking about it entirely in order to maintain myself and move on in a healthy way. Sometime after the 3rd phone call or so(I have lived in a different state for over a decade), Jamey would encourage me to not allow the things we couldn't change, to effect us today. That wisdom and care from this professional, went a very long way. I needed that perspective, he cared enough about his client to provide it and care for their mental state. That's what I will think of when I think back to getting knocked out, with no justice and being jailed for 2 days, due to an error I made of parking on the street. The kindness of my attorney, what a great outcome for a miserable period of time. Thank you for everything! I hope to see you in person and shake your hand, that would be one fine day! read more

I was losing hope in relation to my criminal case. I have never been in trouble with the law and I have been a law abiding citizen throughout my life. Unfortunately for me, the two previous criminal defense lawyers I hired were recommending that I should take a plea bargain for a lesser charge even though I kept telling them that I'm innocent of the crime I was being charged with. They were telling me that they cannot see a way out for me except agree to a plea bargain if it ever gets offered by the DA otherwise a jury trial would definitely turn out bad for me. My life, my freedom and my livelihood were all at stake! My back was against a very big wall! This is when I called the office of Atty. Dylan Taylor and Atty. Jamey Dolowich and asked for their legal services. They were a Godsend! Atty. Dylan and Atty. Jamey immediately set up an appointment with me in their Salinas office to hear the facts of my case. Atty. Dylan Taylor and Atty. Jamey Dolowich are very intelligent and knowledgeable, professional, sincere, and most importantly for me CARING and COMPASSIONATE! It's not that often that you can use "CARING" and "COMPASSIONATE" to describe lawyers, what more criminal defense lawyers. They never treated me like I'm just another client in their law firm. They treated me with utmost respect and dignity. Every time I gave them a call to clarify some stuff regarding my case, one of them, either Atty. Dylan or Atty. Jamey would immediately answer my call, if not, return my call as soon as they are able to. When I request a face to face appointment with them in their office, they always find the time to accommodate me even with their busy schedules. I told them before in one of our appointments that as long as they do their utmost best in relation to my case, I can live with the outcome. The outcome far exceeded my expectations because instead of facing a nerve-racking and precarious jury trial, my criminal case was suddenly and miraculously DISMISSED in the furtherance of justice by the DA. Thanks be to God! Thanks to Atty. Jamey Dolowich and Atty. Dylan Taylor for their tenacity and perseverance in defending and upholding my legal rights. I would forever be grateful to these two amazing and gifted lawyers! If ever you find yourself in trouble with the law, I highly recommend the law firm of Taylor and Dolowich. Atty. Dylan Taylor and Atty. Jamey Dolowich are two of the best criminal defense lawyers in town bar none. They are ready to go to the mattresses with you figuratively speaking to defend and uphold your God-given legal rights! read more

"Handle your stuff before your stuff handles you." Such an easy thing to do yet I was 100% sure my "stuff" would find a way of working itself out on it's own and hiring an attorney would be absurd. Well... I quickly found out that hiring an attorney to represent you is the second smartest thing you could ever do for yourself and your future. The smartest thing you could ever do? Make damn sure the lawyer you hire knows his trade inside and out. Jamey was extremely well organized, always on time and was there for me every step of the way. By my own standards and calculations that gets him up into the 1 star category. So how did he acquire the additional 4 stars needed to make him worthy of a 5 star, top of the line review? Easy. He says what he means and he means what he says. Although his caring nature kept me from experiencing daily panic attacks, I was utterly stunned by his complete and total knowledge of the law. I'm positive Jamey would recommend reviewing a few additional attorneys before hiring the best one suited to meet your particular needs. But I shudder to think of what my own personal outcome might have been had Jamey Dolowich not been recommended to me. And although I consider my privacy to be of the utmost importance, I would be doing a huge disservice by not posting my experience for others to realize that there are real professionals out there that will not only meet your needs but help to far exceed them.

You'll be in great hands! Thank you Dylan & Jamey!! read more

I am still in the middle of my case but so far Dylan and Jamey have been a tremendous help in this extremely stressful situation I have found myself in.

I can't thank them enough for what they have done for my family! read more

Jamey and Dylan are a perfect example of teamwork, hard work, and dedication. The only thing these two promised me was that they would work 110% on my case and they delivered exactly that.

Fast forward a few hearings later full dismissal without having to go to trial. Guys thank you so much for working so hard for me. I owe you two a lot. read more

These guys are great! I was wrongfully detained by police on a misdemeanor charge of evading a peace officer. After a long 6 month stretch Jamey Dolowich, Dylan Taylor and Mike Reed were able to get it reduced to a traffic infraction! If I ever need any type of legal representation again, which I hope doesn't come any time soon, I would not think twice about contacting Taylor & Dolowich, and neither should you! read more

A few years back Jamey Dolowich was my court appointed public defender for matters related to a DUI. He displayed commitment and integrity that I didn't expect simply because he was court appointed to take my case. While with the PD office his tenacity exceeded what I've seen from from attorneys in private practice. I have no doubt that he and his partner will bring those same attributes to their practice. read more

They are good Attorney. I had gotten a DUI and they were really there for me didn't have to appear in court not once they did all the work. At the end it was all good no jail time just paying fines and classes and they even work with me on payments I'm paying them I really appreciate Dolowick & Taylor Attorneys at Law. read more
