← Back to All Attorneys Biography

Taylor McNeal is an Associate with The Advisory Incorporated, where she supports the firm’s sports, entertainment, and NIL-focused work. Her practice interests sit at the intersection of law, business, athlete representation, and brand development, with an emphasis on helping professional and collegiate athletes navigate NIL opportunities, strategic partnerships, and deal-related decisions.

Taylor brings a practical business background in account management, product management, and program management. That experience informs her client-facing approach, allowing her to evaluate opportunities not only from a legal perspective, but also through the lens of execution, market positioning, brand growth, and long-term client value.

Taylor earned her Juris Doctor from Howard University School of Law. During law school, she gained direct legal experience as a Student Attorney, representing parents in abuse and neglect matters, researching applicable case law, communicating client concerns to the court and social workers, and managing active case responsibilities. She also served as a Judicial Intern with the Juvenile Court of Memphis and Shelby County, where she reviewed summonses, assisted with court-related presentations, and helped facilitate discussions intended to deter youth from deeper involvement in the juvenile court system.

Her legal experience also includes work with The Family Law Firm PLLC and The Crone Law Firm, PLC. In those roles, she drafted and prepared complaints, subpoenas, marital dissolution agreements, demand letters, EEOC charges, and legal research across labor, employment, and family-law matters.

Before law school, Taylor earned her Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Spelman College. Fluent in English and Spanish, she brings a bilingual and culturally aware approach to working with diverse talent in an increasingly global sports and entertainment landscape.

“An athlete’s brand is more than a moment. The right legal and business strategy helps turn opportunity into long-term value.”

Taylor’s work focuses on helping athletes and creatives protect, position, and grow their brands both on and off the field. Her combination of legal training, client-service experience, bilingual communication, and business operations background gives her a practical foundation for supporting NIL strategy, brand partnerships, agreement review, and athlete-centered advisory work.
