This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Best Lawyer in Valdosta.

I've had lawyers for my divorces and this man and Niki are the best. I d al with Niki a lot dropping work off when I get it so I don't lose stuff. They have full taken on my case. When I do see Mr Terry it is because he needs to discuss the case with me or have me fill out things. He's straight forwa...rd and honest. Sometimes he can be stern to get his point across but I feel that's the Lawyer mode in him. I can't say enough good about them. Just amazing. Feels like family. Keep up the good work!

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Comes to court late and reaking of alcohol...does talk to his own clients but talks to the other parties lawyer in closed room.

He came to court late..he never spoke to us but walked by and went in to a room with the other parties attorney, then came back out siding with the other side. He never gave us the paperwork that we were told that we would get for what was going on in court, school information letters, papers so the ...children can go see a doctor..he takes our money and never does anything to earn it...

very excellent lawyet

He is handling my disability case and it has not been 2 years yet and my hearing date was scheduled but the disability did not send him his paper work but now we are awaiting the hearing date. As far as child custody I refer him because even though he is not my lawyer yet he is excellent with advice ...on child custody.

EXCELLENT AND AWESOME ATTORNEY

Mr. Terry has represented me in several cases over the span of about 10 years. He is a excellent in court and always makes the other party look ridiculous because he knows his case, job and client. If you are honest with him , he will represent you with excellence. He always keeps me informed about e...verything. I have recommended him to several people over the years and they have nothing but praise for him.

Mr.Terry is wonderful

Mr. Terry was referred to me by a friend who has also used him. He was great! from our first meeting to our most recent phone call I only have good things to say. I used Mr Terry for a divorce lawyer and later needed him for legal matters that came from that. He was very honest and fair. It was like ...having my dad by my side for advice and to also keep me on the right path. Both matters are in the process of being resolved and I could not be happier with both outcomes. If your looking for a good, honest, down to earth....Lawyer who will always look out for your best interest. This is the man!!!!!!
