Taylor Sander was born and raised in Cape Girardeau, Missouri where he also graduated from Southeast Missouri State University with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. Taylor then moved to St. Louis where he received his Juris Doctorate (Law Degree) from the St. Louis University School of Law where he was the proud recipient of the prestigious Dean’s Scholarship. During his first two years of law school, Taylor worked as a volunteer providing legal services to veterans, then as a faculty fellow providing assistance to lawyers involved in complex class action litigation, and finally as a participant in the St. Louis University School of Law’s Civil Advocacy Clinic. As part of the Civil Advocacy Clinic, Taylor dedicated his time and efforts to providing quality legal services to the Saint Louis area’s most vulnerable citizens including complex class action litigation against St. Louis County’s most abusive municipalities. Taylor’s diligent efforts at the Civil Advocacy Clinic ultimately made him a finalist for the prestigious David Grant Award, which is named for the late great St. Louis civil rights lawyer and given to the top Legal Clinic graduating students.
