Tahirah Payne Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Bartow
“You’d make a great attorney. You love to argue!” People told me this my whole life but it’s not arguing that I love, it’s advocating for others. As a native New Yorker navigating conflict is second nature but it takes more than a strong desire to speak for those who wouldn’t otherwise be heard. I began sharpening my advocacy skills as an undergraduate at Mercy College where earned my bachelor of Science degree in psychology graduating with top honors.. I completed my legal studies at Fordham University school of Law where I was privileged to represent clients in criminal matters through the Lincoln Square Legal Services criminal defense clinic. I was later honored with the Archibald Murray award for service to the citizens of New York. I honed my advocacy skills as a member of the Brendan Moore Trial Advocates and received the award for Best Overall Advocate. After law school I began my career at the Bronx District Attorney’s Office in the complaints and arraignments bureau. I relocated to the sunshine state in and spent the next five years working for several of Florida’s largest law firms. I gained valuable experience litigating cases on behalf of numerous large corporations, non-profit organizations and small business owners, criminal defense and family law clients. It was also during these years that I became known amongst judicial officials as “the closer” for my ability to resolve cases through negotiation. Despite all these accomplishments something was missing.. I began to see client’s getting lost in large firm life. Quantity of cases was emphasized over quality of representation. Client’s had questions and concerns, but no one was listening. I founded my firm with one goal in mind; to revive client-centered representation. When you hire me as your attorney you get more than experience. You get a lawyer who listens. What good is expertise if you have a “ghost lawyer” you can never speak to or meet with? I believe the success of each case depends, in part, on building a successful attorney-client partnership. It’s my goal to provide advocacy that is active and accessible even after the retainer is signed. I will work with you to understand your specific goals and provide you with straight forward answers and realistic resolutions to your legal issues. I won’t just fight for you. I will fight for what matters to you most.
