The Alabama Law community mourns the passing of a cherished alumnus—Everette Tedford Taylor. A prominent leader in the Alabama legal community, Taylor was president of both the Alabama Chapter of the American Board of Trial Advocates and the Alabama Trial Lawyers Association. He served on the Board of Commissioners of the Alabama State Bar, and was on the fundraising committee of the Crimson Tradition Capital Campaign. At the Law School, his enduring legacy is honored through the Taylor Courtroom, which stands as a tribute to the members of his family who attended Alabama Law.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time. His presence will be profoundly missed.
