Dorothy Taylor

Dorothy Taylor works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win. If your case is successful, the attorney's fee is a percentage of your settlement or award — typically 15–25% in New Mexico. There are no upfront costs and no fees if you don't recover.

Dorothy Taylor handles all types of workers' compensation cases in New Mexico, including Workers Compensation Appeals, Administrative Hearings, Denied Claims, denied claims, permanent disability ratings, and workers' comp appeals.
