Her love for history and wanting to learn more about the cause and effect of our legal system brought Taylor to Parmenter Law. Taylor joined our Litigation Team and will be working Matthew D. Mills.
In her leisure, Taylor enjoys music festivals and live music, throwing pottery, and spending time outdoors.

NATIONAL COAST GUARD DAY!
Coast Guard Day is held every August 4 to commemorate the founding of the United States Coast Guard as the Revenue Marine on August 4, 1790, by then-Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton.
The formal name for a uniformed member of the Coast Guard is "Coast Guardsman", irrespective of gender. "Coastie" is an informal term commonly used to refer to current or former Coast Guard personnel. In 2008, the term "Guardian" was introduced as an alternative but was later dropped.
