TANISHA TAYLOR

Attorney Tanisha Taylor was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. She was raised by a single mother who instilled the value of hard work in her from a young age. Since the age of six years, old Tanisha had the dream to become an attorney one day. Her mother frequently told her “I can, I will, I am” to remind her that all things are possible. Throughout the many obstacles she faced in life she continued to follow her childhood dream to become an attorney. Before attending law school, attorney Tanisha worked in the childcare and education field. She worked with families and children to develop behavioral and educational plans to fit the needs of every child.
Following law school, she spent her first year in San Antonio, Texas where she worked as a solo practitioner, and practiced family law and criminal law before moving to Dallas, Texas. In her free time, she enjoys volunteering as a family law mediator, spending time with her family, and educating herself on the ever-changing legal system.
Attorney Taylor joined the Manuel Diaz Law Firm, PC in 2022 to be part of the Family Law team. Her primary focus is on divorces, modifications, adoptions, and original suits affecting the parent child relationship. Attorney Tanisha is also a certified family law mediator and she has vast experience in negotiating and litigating on behalf of her clients.
