Vanessa R. Taylor LLB. (Hons.) Managing Director & Lead Attorney-at-Law
Throughout my tenure at the bar, I have curated a niche clientele whose matters I’ve addressed with keen precision and attention to detail, creating an experience where clients are extremely satisfied. I firmly hold the view that to be an exemplary attorney, one must treat one's client exactly how one would wish to be treated if the roles were reversed. It is my desire that as the practice grows, our clients will grow with us and will consider The Valora Group Attorneys-at-Law their first stop for the best legal solutions whenever challenges arise. I approach matters on a case-by-case basis and treat each client with the respect, passion, and dedication they deserve. I’m a mentor and philanthropist.
I speak conversational French and have a passion for travel.
I studied at the University of the West Indies Mona Law School, where I read for and obtained my Bachelor of Laws (Hons.) Degree and later attended the Norman Manley Law School, where I obtained my Legal Education Certificate and was called to practice at the Jamaican Bar.
