About Lance Taylor

Lance Taylor is a trial attorney who has been seeking justice for clients in Northern Colorado since 2016. Lance is a Colorado native, raised in Fort Lupton, and a first-generation high school graduate. Lance worked as an unskilled laborer until joining the U.S. Army in 2006 where he was trained as a human intelligence collector and studied Arabic language and dialects. After deploying in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, Lance utilized his GI Bill benefits to study Psychology at the University of Colorado, and Law at the University of Michigan Law School.

Lance has spent his legal career in Northern Colorado. First, he clerked in the 8th Judicial District, then served as a Deputy District Attorney for Larimer County, prosecuting misdemeanors in county court.
